iPhone fans, look away.
iPhone 5s vs 50 cal - RatedRR Slow-Mo Torture Test
The iPhone 5S recently faced RatedRR's .50 caliber rifle (spoiler alert: it didn't survive). Now the iPhone 5S gets to watch as little brother, the iPhone 5C, gets the same treatment. Best of all, the 5S's slowmo feature captured the whole show. Check it out:

I am sure folks could come up with a long list of things to shoot next, to include the "favorites" of our fanboys/anti-fanboys with particular brands.
Just something to think about and to put this into perspective.
At the same time, I can't imagine wasting my youth away at Foxconn, being fed kool-aid about how I'm making the world's best phone and no one can live without it, and then I see someone callously blowing away the fruits of my labors like this. I'd probably want to kill myself.
Oh wait... I'd probably already want to kill myself. I work at Foxconn making iToys.
They generate their revenue by destroying devices. They wouldn't be able to afford new devices if they stopped destroying them.
If a person is poor then how would they afford the plan required for a iPhone anyways?
Honestly I don't think giving them away is a better use. This just shows how awesome the .50 cal is. Which is freaking awesome.
Also with that same merit, we could say the same about Mythbusters who have destroyed hundreds of cars in the name of science and fun. They could have instead given them away. Or they could continue to blow them up for science.
Oh well that beeeutch deserved it, she tried to kill me... telling me to drive over cliffs, into lakes, and a few times into an oncoming plane when I wasn't paying attention to the road.
What does it prove? That Tim Cook has failed in the same aspect of Steve Jobs before him: Making the damn thing bullet-proof.
