First in line... he dropped it.... he really did

[ZBoater]

I guess those ions weren't strengthened enough.

 

[tekchic]

So much for that sapphire break resistant screen lol

Hate to "break" it to ya, but the screen's not sapphire this year.

 

[BrandonHacks]

this guy is an idiot.

 

[carjakester]

That is hilarious

 

[nepalisherpa]

Poor guy! You could see he was really sad!

 

[ZBoater]

Hate to "break" it to ya, but the screen's not sapphire this year.

Boom! I love it. Well played.

 

[WolfSnap]

There is no way I'd open my iPhone 6 box in the middle of the sidewalk. They can fall! (duh)

This just in from my local store:

Absolutely hilarious!

 

[penajmz]

Why was he opening it like that, without caring at all. I could tell it was gonna happen by the way he was jerking it.

OUCH!

 

[JWorld127]

Wow!!!!

Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

That really sucks, how do you not realize it's upside down when opening it...

 

[C. Robert]

It made that broke sound

 

[rhaezorblue]

It didn't break, you fail at watching video OP.

 

[miamialley]

Lol, yeah why would he open it like that? I love how the crowd reacts and he tries to play it off.

Reminds me of this guy playing it off, lol.

A first real world drop test... Seems like the screen survived?

 

[AverageBob]

Wow that's once in a lifetime. I think he's literally the first regular customer in the world to get the iphone 6 and this happens....

 

[Munky]

So much for that sapphire break resistant screen lol

Considering that's not a feature of either phone, yeah, so much for it.

 

[OneMike]

wowwww insane. be careful

 

[zorinlynx]

Yay, our first iPhone 6 drop test, and it survived!

I'd be concerned if it had broken that easily.

 

[dannyTO]

That can't be real.... Someone had to pay him to do that

 

[ZombiePete]

I could tell it was gonna happen by the way he was jerking it.

LOL that's real funny but the second video on the page might top it. Dude fighting people in line gets tossed to the back, come out hes gotta be on macrumors. It's serious business to him.

 

[erzhik]

Yay, our first iPhone 6 drop test, and it survived!

I'd be concerned if it had broken that easily.

The only reason it survived was because of that white plastic phone holder that fell with it.

 

[richard371]

Agreed first guy in line and reporters. Look at the publicity its gotten already. Just like reality TV. A bunch of crap lol. Its all about attention and the way to get it. The news team probably planned and paid for this.

Im still waiting on "will it blend" episodes tomorrow. Nothing like an Apple smoothie.

That can't be real.... Someone had to pay him to do that

 

[GB11]

Didn't really looked staged to me. Poor guy
