A Reddit user met the misfortune ofhaving his 2013 HTC One ran over by a forklift. Fortunately, the Oneand its machined aluminum armor are notoriously tough, and gotthrough the perilous situation with only a shattered display and somedents and scratches.

Assuming its owner has had the smartphone for less thansix months, he's eligible for a free one-time screen replacement viaHTC's Advantage program. And, while the dents are unapologetically ugly, they are battle scars - the One will be wearing themwith pride and showing them to the ladies.

Meanwhile, we're not so sure the poorforklift got away intact after it jumped the HTC One. Good thing thatit wasn't its bigger, bulkier brother, the HTC One (M8), or that tough-guyforklift would have been destroyed!
