Three days ago, my brother and i were riding our motorcycles in the country. MY brother was ahead of me we were both driving about 35mph and a deer shot out in front of him. He hit he deer head on at full speed. He was thrown from his bike and landed directly in the road in front of me as did the deer that was thrown in the air. I crashed trying to avoid hitting them both. My brother-in-law sustained sever injuries including a collapsed lung, 7 broken ribs, a broken clavicle and scapula as well as a lacerated liver.
When i hit the road, i was bounced around and slid on the asphalt for about 15 yards. I am pretty beat up and scrapped up but did not break anything. When i came to a stop my first thought was of my brother as i had witnessed what happened to him and knew he would be in critical condition. I was praying that my Droid X which i had in the verizon hardshell case/holster would be usable as the road we were on was not traveled much and it could be a while before anyone came along.
To my amazement, the phone was in perfect condition, no cracked screen, nothing wrong with it because of the case i had it in. I was able to get it out and laying in the middle of the road call out for help. Due to my brother injuries, i believe that my phone surviving such a hard impact and still functioning saved my brothers life. He is still in the ICU and will be for the next week but i know had my phone not survived the crash, things could be very different. THANK YOU Motorola for a well built phone and THANK YOU VERIZON for a well built case.
