And to not drag it through a mine-field

[–]BassguitarPWN3R 8 points9 points ago

and to not use it as target practice

[–]Terminator_Se7en -1 points0 points ago

And to not use it as a rubber toy for your dog to chew on..

[–]codemunkeh 22 points23 points ago

Instead, use the dog toy as target practice, chew on a minefield and tie your dog to a kite.

Your phone will still be cracked though.

[–]whichgame 0 points1 point ago

Perhaps they will need some tape as well, for the phone will slide out easily should the OP only use string or rope.

Did you try shutting it off and turning it back on?

[–]OjosAzules 22 points23 points ago

Hold the center button and the lock bottom at the same Time

[–]cwo 32 points33 points ago

why did you capitalize time?

[–]mrnightowl 53 points54 points ago

I would assume because time is of the essence.

[–]cwo 3 points4 points ago

what?

[–]Buttered_Penis 10 points11 points ago

HE SAID HE WOULD ASSUME BECAUSE TIME IS OF THE ESSENCE.

[–]cwo 2 points3 points ago

[–]cwo 3 points4 points ago

[–]callmesuspect 1 point2 points ago

[–]Dave_Rules 15 points16 points ago

I've heard putting it in rice overnight helps.

[–]marinasauce -5 points-4 points ago

If it's wet.

Edit: I didn't mean it dirty. :( You put your phone in rice if you leave it out in the rain....

[–]BobTheSheriff 7 points8 points ago

Thatsthejoke.jpg

[–]another_guy_montag 1 point2 points ago

Plug it to a wall charger between 4 to 6 hours.

[–]jhaze245 1 point2 points ago

Plug it in to the computer and hit restore. They told me it fixes everything.

[–]human_taxidermy 1 point2 points ago

Put it in a bag of rice. EDIT: Dave_Rules beat me to it.

[–]ZeekySantos 14 points15 points ago

And that, children, is how the dinosaurs were wiped out.

[–]dirtyduck383 19 points20 points ago

Well now that wasn't very smart now was it? But on the bright side you now have the Spiderman edition.

[–][deleted] 11 points12 points ago

How did you tie a rope to a smooth solid object like that?

[–]Afuckingtiger 43 points44 points ago

Poorly?

[–]cheesinator 7 points8 points ago

Pictured: Number one image search for "broken Iphone". I can't believe I just searched that to do this....

[–]trendo 2 points3 points ago

Sure you did.

[–]RoosterSnuff 2 points3 points ago

[–]Mitz510 2 points3 points ago

Doesn't matter daddy will buy me a new one.

I hate those people.

[–][deleted] ago

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points ago

But I hope his common sense is.

[–]PopeRaper 10 points11 points ago

No, you did a search for "broken iphone" and then posted it here, claiming you tied it to a kite. YOU DIRTY LIAR!

[–]four_toed_dragon 6 points7 points ago*

Liars make me sad

[Edit: Shortened link]

[–]LiquorballSandwich 2 points3 points ago

IT'S A JOKE! IT'S FUNNY! THAT'S THE POINT!

[–]four_toed_dragon 0 points1 point ago

[–]grizzlymann 3 points4 points ago

I feel your pain. Broke my Galaxy S last night due to shenanigans.

[–]Cu1prit 3 points4 points ago

Almost down vote because you broke a galaxy but upvote for saying "shenanigans"

[–]ase8913 1 point2 points ago

I upvoted you and downvoted myself. Because fuck your system and its rules.

[–]Cu1prit 0 points1 point ago

I upvoted you because no one deserves the -1...well...some people do, but not someone who upvoted me.

[–]TheLateJC 1 point2 points ago

I hope the camera recorder was running.

[–]anymooseposter 2 points3 points ago

First gen. iPhone isn't do video.

[–]Sciencer68 0 points1 point ago

It does do video after you install something from Cydia. I think it was called CyRecord or something.

[–]bfig 0 points1 point ago

It doesn't have a câmera either

[–]motionmufin 3 points4 points ago

It doesn't even make calls!

[–]booooooooooooosh 1 point2 points ago

You can play snake though.

[–]reiji-maigo 0 points1 point ago

So it's a insanely expensive partly-broken nokia with wimpy case...

[–]motionmufin 0 points1 point ago

That was fun. Thank you for that.

[–]anymooseposter 1 point2 points ago

Yes, it does.

[–]Dr_fish 1 point2 points ago

I like how he takes the kite off the girl and just runs away.

[–]desertjedi85 1 point2 points ago

Try pulling out the battery and putting it back in

[–]Ostmeistro 1 point2 points ago

"So, I threw my phone very hard on the floor pic of broken iPhone" What do you want us to do, we really can't help you :)

[–]EyesfurtherUp 1 point2 points ago

put it in a bag of rice, it will be as good as new in a day or two

[–]Canucklehead99 1 point2 points ago

yup, you sure did.

[–]glassy125 1 point2 points ago

and you thought this was a good idea how?

[–]tedius-maximus 1 point2 points ago

Why?

[–]mikeas 1 point2 points ago

I've never seen an iphone without a broken screen...

[–]Ca5bah 1 point2 points ago

Dumbshit

[–]FeculentUtopia 1 point2 points ago

Next time, tie it to a parachute.

[–]cracklepants 1 point2 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

So... why?

[–]HomerJunior 4 points5 points ago

It's okay, this is a repost of an earlier unrelated pic, in response to a different photo - OP is just a karma whore.

[–]rustyrobocop 1 point2 points ago

because karma is sweet and reposting shit is the quick way to get it.

[–]justabitchwalkin -2 points-1 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

thats what I was going to say! why would someone actually do that?

[–]GaijinFoot -2 points-1 points ago

Meh, i thought it was funny

[–]Wolfgangers 1 point2 points ago

If you're going to capitalise a letter in the word iPhone, at least capitalise the right one!

[–]tenshi08 0 points1 point ago

Why couldn't you just write it in the comment section of the other post? Is link karma really that important to you!?

[–]tavaryn 1 point2 points ago

Comment karma isn't worth anything at the karma store.

[–][deleted] -2 points-1 points ago

100 more upvotes and he can get it fixed. Upboat this IF YOU CRY Evryteim.

[–]GaijinFoot -2 points-1 points ago

Its funny, relax

[–]Duhve 1 point2 points ago

Why is this supposed to be funny... It's just a broken iPhone...

[–]HomerJunior 1 point2 points ago

It's a repost of an earlier unrelated pic, used as an unlabelled [FIXED] in response to another genuine iphone-on-kite post.

[–]Dodgeberry 0 points1 point ago

So, that was a really smart idea.

[–]dionnemardon 0 points1 point ago

WHY!?! O.o

[–]Sharkbate12 0 points1 point ago

Have you tried turning it off and then back on?

[–]lon247 0 points1 point ago

I was hoping this would be a cool video because you left video record on.

[–]Bradlyeon 0 points1 point ago

Was that your attempt at getting a better signal?

[–]zXxxxxXxxxXxxxXz 0 points1 point ago

I can fix that for $80. Cheaper than apple.

[–]NoobisPrime 0 points1 point ago

The weird part is, the kite wasn't even off the ground when their iPhone fell.

[–]Sokonomi 0 points1 point ago

Is the kite ok?

[–]KidJoker 0 points1 point ago

I see you got the Spiderman edition aswell.

[–]themanbat 0 points1 point ago

I immediately regret this decision.

[–]Captain_Pirate 0 points1 point ago

How did you take a picture of the iphone?

[–]ENTP 0 points1 point ago

Can we see the video you were trying to take?

[–]SpacePontifex 0 points1 point ago

This was inevitable.

[–]syroncoda 0 points1 point ago

well... there is a difference between "tie" and "properly mount in a durable case that has d3o padding"

hope you have insurance buddy! it would suck otherwise

[–]callmesuspect 0 points1 point ago

You didn't do a very good job.

[–]Boris740 0 points1 point ago

Was it struck by lightening?

[–]TheJoel2012 0 points1 point ago

Why the fuck did you do that?

[–]erikturner10 0 points1 point ago

And discovered electricity?

[–]c12 0 points1 point ago

Your going to need some better string.

[–]myhonor 0 points1 point ago

bet you won't see that with a nokia phone

[–]d8wkd7s9 2 points3 points ago

I think he was trying to make a joke, not claiming that this really happened. You know, with this being r/funny and all...

[–]TiGeRpro 0 points1 point ago

So, you're retarded?

EDIT: Nvm, you're referencing to this.

[–]KDIZZLL 0 points1 point ago

Awesome engineers over there at Apple.

[–]JAKnighton 0 points1 point ago

If a company doesn't cater to my kite-flying needs, they're not worth my business.

[–]Callicious 0 points1 point ago

This is funny.

[–]ErickWTF 0 points1 point ago

Its was useless anyways.

[–]AtTheLeftThere 0 points1 point ago

You know how to tell someone has an iPhone? They'll fucking tell you.

[–]murfi -1 points0 points ago

well, you bought an apple-product after all. cant say you didnt deserve it. sorry bro.

[–]JustGoingWithIt -1 points0 points ago

That's a 1st gen. That phone isn't worth anything. So it isn't a loss.

[–]Industrialbonecraft 1 point2 points ago

Dude, those phones still cost a shit-tonne of money.

[–]JustGoingWithIt 0 points1 point ago

When it comes down to a person selling it is only an average of 15 dollars.

[–]hexley 0 points1 point ago

eBay says otherwise

[–]Rab_Legend -1 points0 points ago

You are not a clever man

[–]Nickman4301 -1 points0 points ago

congratulations on your acquisition of the Spider-Man edition of the iPhone

[–]ohlongjhonson -1 points0 points ago

You were due for an upgrade anyway

[–]Shmeves -1 points0 points ago

First gen iphone like a boss

[–]Cu1prit -1 points0 points ago

How dare you leave the house, much less tie it to a kite, without an otter box?!

[–][deleted] -1 points0 points ago

Look at the screen; it still works. iPhones are actually really tough, it's just that it has glass over everything. Hell, you're at the Home screen, so the touchscreen part works as well.

[–]Atheiholic -1 points0 points ago

Error 404: explanation cannot be found

[–]dmac1123 -1 points0 points ago

This is more of what I expected from the original. Thank you for alleviating my disappointment

[–]EEvoluzione -1 points0 points ago

GOOD! Its time to fucking upgrade any ways!

[–]EzronKun -1 points0 points ago

Why do people like tying things to birds ._. its wrong man

[–]Rodan_s -1 points0 points ago

Thats the new spider app isnt it?

[–]mosby1_2_3 -1 points0 points ago

You did it wrong.

[–]Methedless -1 points0 points ago

Dude that su- wait, it's a 3GS, never mind.

[–]Dofley -1 points0 points ago

Oh cool! You got the spiderman edition too!

[–]natofinchmeister -1 points0 points ago

upvote for hype machine

[–]Muskafan2 -4 points-3 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Would Upvote if it wasn't a second gen.

[–]Impudent_Femme 8 points9 points ago

It's a first gen.

[–]iPodZombie 0 points1 point ago

Yeah, it looks to be a 3G or 3GS with a case mod - only the original iPhone had the black segment at the bottom, but that model had black buttons and an aluminum shell. The white casing and silver buttons are from the newer design.

[–]Muskafan2 -1 points0 points ago

Dah. Even worse. I had my suspicions.

[–]Cu1prit -3 points-2 points ago

It's a third gen.

[–]Trezi -4 points-3 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

If I could upvote this more than once, I would.

[–]fghug -2 points-1 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

It's the crashing that does it hey.

Duct tape all the things!

[–]rmlpwn -2 points-1 points ago

slow clap

[–]ohhyou -2 points-1 points ago

is that a first generation iphone? hmm

[–]evabraun -2 points-1 points ago

Looks the same as my iPhone, except mine fell from a 3 foot table. Built Apple tough.
