Apple has always bragged about the iPhone 4's durability, but some people have doubted that when it broke as a result of being dropped from 3 feet in the air (
Apple was sued for this). But now we have another side of the story; skydiver Jarrod McKinney's iPhone 4 survived a 13,500 foot fall when he accidentally left his iPhone 4 in his pocket while skydiving. "I just knew it was gone," said McKinney. "Falling from that height? What are the chances of you finding something like that or even knowing where to look?" Amazingly, however, he found the location of his iPhone (on the roof of a building half a mile away) using a GPS tracking app.
The iPhone's front and back glass was shattered, yet somehow when McKinney's skydiving instructor called it as a joke, the call actually went through. Now we just have to call him up and ask him to leave a Droid in his pocket next time for comparison...
