I didn't go that far...
But I did get one of those naff Nokia rubber-encased phones about 7 or 8 years ago. Whilst boasting to my friends of its indestructible nature, one of them (drunkenly) took this literally, grabbed it out of my hand and launched it across the road.
It bounced, bounced again, and then came to a stop. I went over and retrieved it, and - lo and behold - it still worked.
Smugly, I again boasted that it was truly indestructible, only for the same friend to grab it and throw it again.
It bounced, bounced again, and then came to a stop... and then a bus ran over it. It didn't work after that.
I don't boast about phones anymore.
