Nextel phone proves its ruggedness as it stops a bullet in its track
We all know that there are a handful of mobile phones that we trust with our lives, literally, Sprint-Nextel rugged phones might be the one you'll want to be sporting if ever a bullet is headed your way.
Juan Camarena who is 54, was probably extremely grateful to find himself surviving a gun shot thanks to his Nextel phone. Minding his own business while sweeping the floors of a New York City apartment, he found himself as the prime target of the building's supervisor's wrath after getting the bad news that he was being replaced.
The supervisor shot Camarena from just a few feet away, but luckily, he was able to get away soon after as he “climbed up a floor when he felt a burn near his stomach as the bullet hit the Nextel phone tucked in a jacket pocket.” Thanks to his trusty, and no longer functional Nextel phone, his life was spared as he only received a half-inch scratch from it.
Unfortunately, the shooter left the scene and is still at large, but the obvious question now is if Camarena can get his handset replaced – let's hope he has insurance.
