> Where are the vids of someone throwing a MacBook Air down the stairs and the thing keeps working?

For some anecdata, I have:

Stood on mine Poured water on it. Been hit by a car while cycling and fallen on it. Dropped it.

It’s fine. Has a few scratches and a small dent. The predecessor is a 2013 Air which has had a hard life. It’s going great.

A colleague put a piece of a4 paper between keyboard and screen then closed it, squeezed it and cracked the screen. Don’t do that.
