With enough height, any drop would do. 😎 Follow me for more shitty advice.

That begs the question of whether the terminal velocity of a phone is enough to eject the battery.

Unless the height you're dropping it from is on Jupiter

I tried typing velocity in the terminal and got a velocity command not found.

I guess the command crew is out on vacation, so no terminal velocity 🤔

I'm pretty sure it is, an arms height drop on the right angle can break open most smartphones, statistically speaking we need a bigger height to increase our chances.

So most modern smartphones do use adhesive strips to attach the battery to the midframe and its pretty strong... Which is why I always advise heating your device to 70c BEFORE lobbing it off the roof to help with battery removal!

Unfortunately my phone is rated to withstand such a fall...

May as well sign up for some Vim users groups, then.

I'm 6 feet 2 inches. Would that be high enough?
