'Extreme Unboxing of the Samsung GALAXY SII – Stunt Flight'



Matt Brian from Thenextweb.com swaps (as he says) the dull interior of his office for the sunny climes (England apparently has these... sometimes) of Gloucestershire to unbox the new Samsung GALAXY SII airborne in a fast-flying stunt plane.

They take off in a vertical up Immelmann (turn) with a Roll-off-the-top (half loop, according to Wikipedia).

In between stunts, Brian does manage to tell us about the features (which we know almost by heart now!) - thinnest smart phone on the market at the moment, surprisingly light to hold (battery, included), ultimately very powerful etc etc.

As the plane skims the clouds, Brian waxes lyrical about Samsung's superior quality hardware... only to be interrupted and utter "oh my word" (so English, hey...) as the plane does a half roll to inverted and he is hanging upside down!

She then goes into an erect spin, vertical up and flat spin, pulling +7G (poor fellow cannot quite remember what he has to do next!).

The stall turn stops the plane mid-air (for half a blink of an eye) before it leaves smoke trails. I think there is a swear word in there somewhere but it seems to be beeped out and this (intrepid??) flyer is left speechless as the pilot takes his baby on what appears to be a non-stop whirl.

I love it. Brian just pulls himself together and gives the phone his all in the last few seconds (although I can swear he is doing all he can not to barf).

Back on terra firma at last. Poor Brian.
