    I was headed up some outdoor steps up to the third floor, and the phone slipped out of my jacket pocket and hit the ground, and slid right off the end of the steps onto the concrete on the ground below ......





















    not a scratch on it.


    I love my otterbox case. It didn't even turn off, works perfectly fine. There isn't any damage on the otterbox either.


    I like the phone, I love the case.

    Anybody remember Pippi Longstocking? She thought she was all that 'cause she was smart enough to wear a bucket over her head so when she tripped & fell her head wouldn't get hurt. Of course without the bucket she wouldn't be tripping ...

    I was carrying boxes .. so I doubt it was the case's fault.

    I'm just happy I'm not going to verizon tomorrow for a replacement

    Lol, what a bunch of smart a**es huh!
    But seriously good for you man, I am sure otterbox protects the phone really good. But, to each his own. I'll stick with carrying mine in a pocket.

    Sounds wacked but sometimes I think I'd like to drop my phone and smash it so I could finally use the insurance I've paid for for the last 5 years and never used! Too OCD to remove and the Otterbox is too large. Glad your Storm didn't get smashed ;-)

    Well the girl (Tami Erin) that played Pippi in the 1988 American Version of the movie don't look so bad today either!!

    Glad that your Storm is ok. Your story will make me think about getting the Otterbox for sure.

    I am glad your Storm survived. There has been a quite a few posts about people's storms biting it hard and coming out alright on the other end.

    Someone wrecked their car and the phone was flying around the inside of the car, and was found on the road by the person whose phone it was and it supposedly worked fine.
