Technically, anything is impact resistant, including soap bubbles. It’s only when you go beyond its tolerance that you break things.

I was severely disappointed to find out that I dented my back bumper when I backed into one of those concrete posts at a gas station! I was thinking about complaining about that! It’s just not right! ... LOL ...

An “impact resistant” watch must be like “water restistant” boots a guy tried on at the store and asked the sales clerk what “water resistant” meant. The clerk replied, “That means they WILL leak, but they don’t want to.”

I have a tip for all the would be Apple Watch owners out there.

Please do not drop your Apple Watch on concrete.

I've had iPads, iPhones and iPads for over 10 years now. I have never once dropped any of these devices on concrete and they have given me years of reliable use. In fact, the iPod I keep in my car has been used practically every single day for 10 years.

So with regard to the Apple Watch, do not drop it on concrete!

Was the pool completely drained for this test? :-)

Obviously someone doesn’t understand what Apple means by “impact-resistant”. Try. slapping it. With a limp wrist.

It’s almost as if they expect you to strap it to yourself somewhere, like on your wrist or something.

Nice. If my kids get one, that crazed glass pattern will match their phone screens and laptop screens. Nothing like matching smashed screens on all your electronics to show you are fashion-forward.

C-NET did a more thorough test to destruction than this Bozo did. That video is here:

We destroyed the Apple Watch.
