Anyone want to take a guess as to what type of shot was used?

Someone needs to invent a neck lanyard for the iphone now

AppleShot? MacBuck? IBird?

A plate carrier of obsolete iPhones? Trauma pocket for soft armor to hold your iPhone?

I carry my Iphone in my right butt pocket. I dont think thats going to save me

Ah, but can it stop a .50 BMG like this one?

Granted it's the case that stops the bullet, but still cool.

Forget the iPhone...real operators strap on an iPad.

Guy should go buy a lottery ticket

 

[Double Naught Spy]

Neat. It was a glancing shot, so maybe not as miraculous as intimated other than the fact that the shot hit the iPhone.

an ancestor of mine was an old timey cop over a 100years ago, sabre and all.

he was shot in the chest at a dancing hall and the ball got lodged in his snuffbox he carried in his frontpocket
