G-Form is again demonstrating the protection of their cases by having skydivers drop two iPads from 1300 ft.

To demonstrate its RPT energy absorbing technology, G-Form goes skydiving with both the Extreme Edge and the Extreme Portfolio iPad cases and drops both iPads from above 1300 feet AGL after playing movies in free fall. Neither iPad sustains any damage with the movies still playing after ground impact. G-Form's RPT technology was originally developed to protect athletes from impacts, but is now incorporated into their line of electronic device protection for tablets, laptop computers and other devices.

Take a look at the video below and click here for more like it.

hahahaha..one more..hahahaha. Yeah right, Ipads still works because you drop it in grassy surface. Just like having a foam. Drop it in Concrete road or highway and we'll see.

So dropping it onto a grassy surface is the reason it was protected? Is that what you are saying? Even on a grassy surface, falling from 1300 feet involves extreme force. Don't worry though it's just like having a foam.

Cheesy music and people jumping out of a plane isn't the best way to make your product attractive. Impressive product but video made me cringe
