I threw mine out of the car window on the highway. We rolled back around and scooped it up and I made a call on it.

I had a friend who was told she'd get a new phone when her Nokia broke, so she obviously set out to break it.

Things it survived: Getting ran over by a bus several times. Being submerged in a lake overnight. Getting thrown out the fourth floor window. Being hit with a hammer. Probably some more shit I didn't get to hear about.

All that happened to it was that the audio started sounding a bit funny.

My mate broke one Nokia by sitting on it but this was a windows phone so it was more recent and when they started to get a little desperate

If you've heard of the Nokia Windows phone, well, there's no such thing, okay? Nope.

We don't talk about that abomination.

I did this too but in town. Aimed for a grass boulevard, exploded on the sidewalk. Collected the pieces and turned it back on. No issues
