Listen. Apple is still signing both versions. 7.1.1 and 7.1.2 just download the 7.1.1 ipsw from iclarified. Then hold shift and click restore ( if you're using windows that is ) navigate to the ipsw you just downloaded. And you can restore back to 7.1.1 not sure what you gotta hold on a Mac before clicking restore (don't use a Mac sadly) But you can find the tutorial on iclarified.

He gets money from adsense off of youtube views and ads. Not too many people regularity destroy the worlds number one selling phone, so he can easily afford a new $649 phone or 2 per video.

What do you want to prove here! Its a train VS an iphone!

I hate how many could have done this up instead of outselling but instead let's just face the facts how galaxy gets destroyed, that we head away from the wannabe ruining technology, let's do the f version because it stands for failure.

Is this even legal?? Tracks Trains and safety of 100's should never be taken for granted ...foolish experiment

This is the world we all live in. Why would you wanna do something like that? If you have so much money to waste, feed a hungry person or a dog! Happiness forever. Peace!

JoshvanHulst - July 26, 2014 at 3:55am

Hahah why would someone sacrifice their iphone in this way.. ;(

I'm an apple fanboy.. but i don't like this video. You just so arrogant to destroy 2 iPhone 5S, when someone out there want to buy the 5S but they can't afford it. Shame on you that posted video like this.

besartz - July 26, 2014 at 12:21am

Well to be honest, he already thought of it i know it. He thought of that when we watch this video there will be too many clicks that he is going to be paid and get the moneys for both iphones or even more. Anyways not a good way to test the iphones durability, there are people that can't afford it. Why would you waste an iphone while you know the train will totally damage it? I'm not sure I liked this video

Darius - July 25, 2014 at 9:10pm

He is paid to do this! so calm down

gamerscul9870 - July 25, 2014 at 9:12pm

Paid by a fandroid like all the others are here. I am calmed down already but people who throw their money on expensive products just for destruction, just why?

Clearly the grey iPhone holds up better to a train wheel than the white iPhone. I'm only getting the darker iPhones from now on.

Fabios - July 25, 2014 at 9:16pm

I have a black iphone and I can confirm that it has never been destroy by a train so far......

anon - July 25, 2014 at 5:32pm

How insanely irresponsible. Just to get his 15 minutes of fame on YouTube (and waste a perfectly good phone), he risks the possibility of derailing a train, millions of dollars of property damage, and potentially other people's lives? How does he know that it'll be destroyed and not cause the train to leave the track? He should be sued by the railroad, or arrested by the authorities (or both). Doubly so because he was stupid enough to post it.

Adrian - July 25, 2014 at 4:41pm

What is the point of this ??.?.?.?. Why destroy a perfectly good working Iphone5... Why not destroy a broken one. Some people have too much... like the guy in the video, and others can not even afford and 4s ...like me. Don't be disrespectful of others . Why do I only see people like this destroying things like iPhones iPads iMacs and macs. Why don't you make a video giving these away to people that cant afford these nice things. You would get more views and likes??.?.?

Ammar - July 25, 2014 at 2:14pm

Pointless. Some people wish for an iPhone and this thing destroy them. Waste of resources and time.

Liam - July 25, 2014 at 1:18pm

This is a Phone, even the other phones can destroy over the train....

Mike Power - July 25, 2014 at 11:34am

iPhone was made for that, to be destroyed in so many ways.

Clodoaldo Castro - July 25, 2014 at 10:36am

That a Waste

Aldo - July 25, 2014 at 9:55am

Destroy an iPhone for fun?

Clodoaldo - July 25, 2014 at 9:26am

Fake movie

John - July 25, 2014 at 7:16am

I suppose he wanted to create a real life situation; "oh no! I've left my iPhone on a railway track! Let's go back and see if it survive! Whilst I'm over there, I'm going to get ran over by a train :D lol
