iPhone 4 vs .50 Cal Barrett

[blindfire]

Ok...nice concept...but what a crappy shot!

 

[PaulD]

So, he paid at least $200 and is now on the hook for another 24 months of AT&T bills (or he paid a non-subsidized price for the phone) and then destroyed it. I like shooting old computers but this is just stupid.

 

[mbz4ever]

it is pointless... according to videos from youtube this guy hates apple

As opposed to the guy who puts them through the blender?

The fact that he has pretty good super slow-mo equipment indicates that he probably has the budget for such an expenditure.

Not that he could have recovered the video, but he should have been recording video on the IPhone of the incoming shot. Ya never know.

I never said the blender guy was smart.

As for the slow-mo, there are $400 digital cameras that will do that. Casio has a few.

You mean to tell me there's no app for that?!?

 

[dwarven1]

Why?

 

[JayD]

Well I am not using mine as body armor anymore!

 

[BE4TNUT]

I don't get it...

"I hate Apple so I am going to go buy a product of theirs so they get my money and make a video showing the world how much I hate Apple."

So Apple gets his money and adds one more unit to sales figures. I do not believe that these people making these videos to show how much they dislike Apple are rational thinkers. Apple doesn't care what you do with their phone after you buy it... as long as you don't jailbreak it that is haha.

Why?

Because he can?

If I had my own M82, I'd be shooting all sorts of things too. I'd like to think I could even hit an iPhone center mass at 25 yards.

 

[HiggityHank]

I never said the blender guy was smart.

The difference is the blender guy is selling $600+ blenders and using those videos as viral marketing... you can budget for that.
This guy is just a guy with money to burn apparently.

 

[Reptile]

That gives me an idea.

Lets replicate the experiment at the Gunpowderpig event.

I'll bring an iPhone.

Yes, I am serious!

I will bring an iPhone for the experiment.

Hmm... somewhere I have to ressurect the epic grade post I had drafted but never posted. All I remember is it involves an M82, an M1 garand, a machine gun of some sort, lots of ammo, a few hundred iphones, xylophones and toy pianos..... and a bulldozer (the original iphone commercial was awful...)

ETA: Part of the test was going to be able to see how many CCW badges I could blow through with a 50 BMG at once.....

It's all jamz's fault...

I don't think they're trying to upset apple, rather, they like making apple fanbois cry.

Maybe he found the phone at a bar?

Someone must take you up on this!

 

[TimMcG74]

I wouldn't exactly call that center mass.

+1, I do believe there is a bluetooth app where the footage could be remotly broadcast to another machine and recorded on that drive. That would have kicked ass.

Well, I do not have a need to shoot it, so maybe somebody else will. A bullet is a bullet wether it came from my gun or not.

I have a .50.......I'll be at Gunpowderpig II. Look me up. We can get this done.

If you want to see a bullet on a head on trajectory, there is a way to do it without sacrificing the camera. A mirror. You put a mirror at 45 degrees between the high speed camera and the bullet's trajectory (each perpendicular to the other) and all that you sacrifice is the mirror.
