iPad 2 lives after getting run over by a car; owes it to a tough G-Form sleeve case

Here comes another tale of a popular gadget surviving after getting abused in an unusual fashion. This time it is the iPad 2 that got subjected to a survival test, namely getting run over by a car. However, there is one little catch in the whole story – the iPad 2 was wearing some tough protection.

Some of you may have already heard of a company called G-Form. Besides a selection of rugged elbow and knee pads, the protective gear that it manufactures includes a line of heavy duty, impact resistant sleeve cases for laptops and tablets. Sure enough, that is exactly what the aforementioned iPad 2 was wearing when it fell under the wheels of a moving car, and without such a case, the tablet would have probably never survived.

Luckily, a video of the whole action is available and you can check it out below, and for more survival stories, check out how an iPhone survived after falling from a plane, and how a Palm Pixi got baked and lived to tell about it.
