This Taiwanese girl just learned the laws of gravity from her iPad. Not the apps inside the iPad, but the iPad itself. While holding the tablet over her head in bed, she dozed off. That’s when decided to deliver his first and second laws directly to her face, in the form of a mouthful of Apple technology.
The device knocked out two halves of her front teeth. Her mom, seeing that her daughter hadn’t suffered enough humiliation, ran with this to the local news. And being Taiwan, they decided to make a reenactment (around 1:15 in the video below).
Science, kids. You can’t stop it.
I did this to myself the other day… Lying in bed, luckily it wasn’t that far away, and I just headbutted it…
I did this once with an iPod Touch. I cut my lip. I think apple products are out to harm our mouths. I bet apple has a massive stake in a dental business.
The trick is to lie flat and balance the iPad on its smart cover stand on your belly.
Then if it falls over the worst you can expect is a swift smack in the moobs…
There’s nothing worse than a smack in the moobs ! HA !
This where the benefit of a 11″ ultraportable or netbook comes in.
Unfold the screen to 180degrees (or as far as it’ll let you unfold) and you’ll find you can rest the unfolded laptop on your chest and the screen will be at suitable viewing height along with 95%+ of the weight being supported. If you did fall asleep, you’d just receive the gentle thwap of it falling over your face… (from experience xD)
Ouch! I bet the dentist bill will be at least as much as the ipad!
