so the officer wasnt wearing a vest....?
idunnoyou
I don't think vests typically cover your upper thigh.
WhatsUnderMyKilt
It looks like the jacket to a hollowpoint. That is some severe jacket separation. How did the hollowpoint expand like that on a solid object
WhatsUnderMyKilt
it looks like the bullet went through someone else before it hit the officer.

The 3310 wouldn't have cracked
IsaacNewtonDiedAVirgin
The OG Nokia would’ve pulled out a gun and fought back. Impressive nonetheless
losCHUNK
Would've calmly waddled over to the shooter before asking 'do you feel lucky, punk...'

…came in expecting more news of "SoulCalibur VI." ='(
TheBigLetdown
Finally someone got the reference. Sorry about the lack of update but have a +1
FatalMerlin
If I remember this story correctly, good guy Nokia happily sent him a replacement!
TheMightyDio
Doesn't that mean that he didn't avoid it...
IWasDoingJustFineLurking
Is this a true story?

I like the irony that the former Nokia brick factory in Finland now produces small arms ammunition.
FullCrimsonic
So they did a downgrade?
Ironydealswithopposites
That's legit?
shimmernshine
Yeah. Ammunition production is one of FInland's #1 industries.
Covfefe2020
For anti-tank hand guns or what?

I've dropped my Lumia 635 several times and it only got an unnoticeable scratch on the screen

Only slightly disappointed that the bullet wasn’t completely shattered.

or that the image used in this post appears to be a bullet casing, not a slug.

It's the copper jacket of the bullet. The internal lead portion shattered.
Hardie86
Well as the son of the old Nokia, IT shares only a certain percentage of the DNA. Maybe that explains the Limited destruction of the bullet
shialabouf
Oh that bullets spirit is shattered though
Wakborder517
The Lumia is young. It’ll get stronger. Just give it time
Volpe42
Son or grandson?

Son, 3310 got around a whole lot.

That must be the most powerful ammunition in the world.

I don't think "avoids" is the correct term here...
TeamRocketBlastOffAtTheSpeedOfLightSurrenderNowOrPrepareToFight
Why does it look like the bullet is just the copper jacket.
idunnoyou
Look up hollow point ammunition.
TeamRocketBlastOffAtTheSpeedOfLightSurrenderNowOrPrepareToFight
I know what a JHP is. If it was stopped by the phone and mushroomed out, there would be lead mangled with the jacket. The photo looks like
idunnoyou
Ah true. It looks like a pretty aggressive hollow point. Perhaps it shattered and shed the main mass.
TeamRocketBlastOffAtTheSpeedOfLightSurrenderNowOrPrepareToFight
the bullet shed its jacket which usually means the round didn't stop.
PoppaBigBear
IPhone cracks of you don't gently place it on a pillow. Nokia is like, "come at me bro".
NanoArmy
I’ve never cracked an iPhone. I’m not a super safe person, I just think I’m not a fuckin dumbass about it...
TiniCactus
I have this old nokia. Shit fell like a thousand times on concrete and it only managed a crack because the plastic weakened so it hit the >

screen with more force, and even then it wasn't a lot of damage.

CongratsYouAreHereNow
dude i drop my iPhone all day and it still has a screen thats uncacked
triesbutfailstobewitty
Expensive case?
CongratsYouAreHereNow
$40 leather case from the apple store
PoppaBigBear
Lucky you, other people's phone slip from their hands and the entire thing shatters, there's video of it too!
Kaoss01
Uncacked your say? In Australia that would kinda mean that your screen has not been shat on. Fuck we use some weird words
raindirve
my last iPhone cracked 4 ways when I dropped it on a soft wooden bridge from less than a meter high
Wakborder517
Yeahhhhh me too
Kaoss01
I buy a cheap case of eBay. I drop my phone daily, half the time I drop it and proceed to boot it across the room and into the wall.
Kaoss01
Never broken one yet. But then again... its a Samsung not an iPhone. You sneeze near an iPhone and the bastard cracks
Hellfirefighter
That is rare. Beware of it not being a real iPhone, but other company's smartphone spying you in your comfy pocket.
CongratsYouAreHereNow
dude i bought it at the apple store
JesusMaximus
I'm not sure what's more unlikely, that the phone stopped the bullet, or that someone actually had a Windows Phone. Assume Finnish.
PianoMan2112
If a city bought Windows phones for every officer a few years ago, they’re not switching any time soon.
LordCarna
I had one issued to me as a work phone. It was pretty good actually
mycatsanarsehole
No chance of either
IAmBoredAtWork
Girlfriend had WP from work, it was pretty good, the problem was the lack of apps, sad really, we could benefit from some competition in OS

Tried one, still have it. Switched back to my older android phone, could not find anything impressive about windows
JesusMaximus
Didn't knock them. Just implied that hardly anyone had one.
Gribblecillin
My entire family had them on a plan. Couple others I knew had them too. They were almost like Motorola razors man they were everywhere.
bogusaruba
Lumias were awesome and could have given completion to Android had Microsoft not chickened out.
