I didn't want to laugh at this poor guy...but I did. A lot. Thanks to HardUp4HardWare for the link.

can't fix stupid
Why would you buy a phone that costs a minimum of $700.00 and not buy a $10.00 case?
Would you put a case on a $20000 Rolex? Same principle.
I wonder if it cracked. Had it been a iPhone 5S/5/4S/4 the back would've cracked but Apple finally famed to it's senses and stopped putting glass on the back.
How are you supposed to fit a $10 case to a phone that you never have taken out of the box?
Because a rolex is secured to your body
Poor guy, it looks like he opened it before and removed the stock film from the screen. Bad move.
At the end you can see him trying to scratch off the damage.
All good, all good
I still have the screen protector that came with my phone 2 years ago, just snipped the pull tab on it.

1. The guy is a dumbass
2. the news lady should pay for his busted shit since she asked him to take it out of the box.

The only thing that makes the Rolex worth $20k is semi-precious/precious stones--the money doesn't help at all with the accuracy of the watch. Scratching my head over what makes an iPhone worth $700, though... (It's just a friggin' cell phone, difficult to believe people aren't bored silly by all of this repetitive i-Stuff by this time!)

I loved the ifixit i6P breakdown LOL what the heck were they using to open the screen from the body. Straight out of torture chamber tools inc.
Yes he is
No not really..not her fault he's a dumbass.
All the electronics packed into an iPhone or any of the top tier phones and you don't know what makes them worth $700? This isn't terribly difficult to figure out.
Smart phones are pretty remarkable. However most are marked up ~250% from manufacturing costs. Other consumer electronics typically have a 15% - 30% markup. They cost $700 because that's simply what the market will bare. Eventually, once the market is saturated with "quality" smart phones, we will see the prices decrease.
hmmmm... that's actually a great idea. Don't have to worry about getting dust/lint/hair/air bubbles stuck under a 3rd party unit either. I may just do that.
Guy isnt a dumbass, he's clearly nervous, on live TV in front of a huge crowd and doesnt want to seem like some pussy who cant open a box, or some douche who refuses to, so he pulls it with all his might and of course sends the phone flying. Had he been at home I'm sure it wouldnt happen.
I can't believe Apple would design their packaging to allow something like that to happen. The guy didn't drop the box or anything odd. The phone just flipped out. Assuming that's how it is packages Apple screwed up. Clearly this is not the first time something like this has happened. Customers shouldn't have to know that coudl happen just from pull the cover off.
Also, if the screen cracked that is pretty pathetic. I've dropped my 2+ year old Galaxy Blaze 10+ times and it still hasn't cracked. If it cracks that easily then it seems clear Apple wants them to crack to make more money..
