Throwing, stamping or blending – things that all the cool kids are doing with their brand new iPhone 4 or iPad these days.

Personally, it irks me to see such willful destruction of a luxury item that many people can only dream about owning, just to ensure you get a few links back to your website or views on a YouTube video.

That said, I feel duty bound to share with you the newest demonstration/sales pitch/advert from ifixyouri.com that shows a member of the team drop an iPhone 4 that has been securely encased in one of Apple’s $29 bumpers.

Three drops and the handset cracks – not that we get to see the resulting damage – I’m sure you, like me, are still in shock…
