Okay, maybe it’s not the “ultimate” drop test, as I am sure some dude is going to try throwing a Nintendo Switch off of the Empire State Building or Burj Khalifa, but welcome to another episode of destroying hard-to-find/expensive items for YouTube views. Those of you who would rather see the innards of Nintendo’s hybrid console in a more modest setting may check out iFixit’s effort here.
 
TL;DW The controllers absorb most of the impact, definitely designed with clumsy kids in mind.
 
After drop #3, well there you have it folks the things pretty durable and will likely survive should you accidentally drop it during normal use. But hey watch me act like a douchebag manchild and create electronic waste.

Fking idiot, NOT scratch resistant after he drops it 5ft onto a rough concrete surface. TARD...
 
Not sure why so much h8 over this? I don't mind seeing what it's capable of in a regular use type of drop scenario.
