They have previously dropped an iPad out of a plane as well as launching a bowling ball on one.

But G-Form have now gone one step further in order to prove just how tough their protective iPad cases are.

The firm has dropped an Apple tablet from the edge of space and, incredibly, it survived.

As a YouTube video shows, G-Form attached the iPad and case to a weather balloon which carried it 100,000ft up.

The entire journey was captured on a video attached to the balloon.

Correct me if im wrong, but surely it wouldnt matter how far up you went from a plane - seeing as it will hit terminal velocity anyway?

This is true. It wouldn't matter, but what's cooler sounding? iPad dropped from a plane or iPad dropped from THE EDGE OF SPACE!?

Anyhow... this doesn't make me want an iPad or a G-Form any more than I didn't want it before ;P

Well even my dog can survive falling from this far with ballons. The true matter is if it can survive just thrown down to earth.
