I watched a friend drop her iPhone last week. It wasn’t pleasant to watch and I felt bad, but I was also inspired!
She was holding a couple of things in her hands, so when she lost her grip on the phone it went tumbling down and all she could do was use her foot to try to soften the landing.
Well, at least that’s what I thought. My friend actually managed to kick the phone softly back up to waist height, and pretty much directly back into her hand! Super impressive!
Unfortunately the story doesn’t end there. She didn’t manage to get a good grip on the phone this time either, and it dropped back down hard onto the cement. Ouch.
Still, it got me thinking that smartphones with all their sweet gyroscopes and motion sensors ought to look into developing a hacky-sack app. I think my friend would be a top-scorer.

perhaps this will give rise to a very soft puffy case for the phone so it can indeed be sued as a hacky-sack.
