Someone smashed their ipad with a baseball bat.

People do these things with all the top electronic products..

I've seen PS3's, 360's, laptops, etc..

In fact, this one guy bought a PS3 on launch, took it outside of the Best Buy he bought it from and smashed ti with a sledge hammer in front of everybody else who was standing in line waiting for theirs.. Imagine if you're the first guy to get told "Sorry, we're sold out" after waiting in line for hours knowing that the guy who bought it only to smash it took yours..

Even so, the PS3 did not give in too easily to the sledge hammer. That thing is built like a little tank.

But yeah, these vids are all over Youtube.

Just in case anyone else is tempted to smash a brand new iPad up, I can supply my address

Would have been better to help a family in need with the cash.

I think someone on Youtube did that back when the first iPhone was released, Instead I think they put it in a blender.

Aha I saw that video of the iPhone in the blender too.

reminds me of the time when a guy smashed his PS3 with a sledge hammer immediately after purchasing it

But i believe that guy didn't have to actually pay for it since he created a website and received donations to buy the ps3 for the stunt

It's sad when people have to revert to destroying things such as this in order to get a quick 15 minutes of fame, especially when there are so many people who would love to own and use such things but might not be able to afford them.

Some people have more money than sense!

Kids these days…they just keep on getting more stupid as the days go on! That iPad took that baseball bat to the face like a real man…like a champ! Those wussies swing like…umm…can't say it on here! That ipad seemed real tough if you ask me!

Yeah, they were swinging the bat kind of, um.. soft..

Sad thing is these same kids are probably the type that go on the blogs and complain that the iPad sucks and say it's a waste of money to buy one.

"Lets show them all by getting one and smashing it!"

"brilliant!"

Looks like he did it for attention....and he is actually an Apple fan: Teen who destroyed his iPad with a baseball bat: 'I love Apple' | Technology | Los Angeles Times

wow, to be young and have expendable income. If they were my children, I'd beat the mess out of them for being so stupid... Please parents of America, beat your kids more often so this kind of stuff doesn't happen anymore.
