Another Apple device, not the Apple Watch, saves its owner's life
We know that the Apple Watch has saved lives thanks to two of its features, the heart rate monitor and the electrocardiogram (ECG) on the series 4 model. Now, there is word from Reuters that another Apple device has saved a life; this time, it is the Apple iPhone. It wasn’t a particular feature of the handset that saved a 43-year old man from certain death, but the phone itself took the brunt of an arrow that was shot directly toward the victim.
The incident took place yesterday in New South Wales in Australia when the man was threatened by someone he knew who was wielding a bow and arrow. The man lifted up his iPhone to capture a photo of the confrontation when the assailant pulled back on the bow and let go. Miraculously, the arrow ended up penetrating the victim’s iPhone, going out the other side. The tip of the arrow caused a small cut on the man’s face.
