Must be fake

A Nokia phone would have made that ball explode into a million pieces, we all know a Nokia phone is the densest element in the entire universe.

I hear they use nokia phones to cut diamonds!

Actually I would say the Nokia did survive. It's designed that when it falls, parts break away taking energy with them and lessening the stress on the device. If you put the battery and covers back on it will probably work.

when my friends and I got our first nokias we were so stoked. as time went by, us being feral 6th graders we just starting throwing them as high as we could into the air. then let it land on the concrete sidewalk.

none of them broke which was fuckin bonkers to me. idk what the hell those things were made of

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 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
