A California couple’s car spun off the road and over a cliff in Angeles National Forest earlier this week. After the accident, they found one of their phones shattered with no cell service, but the iPhone 14 sent their coordinates to rescuers via satellite and helped them text with emergency services. The Los Angeles Sheriff’s Department rescued the two, hoisting them out of the canyon.

#California #iPhone #CarCrash

iPhone sucks.
This is nothing more than a plug for iphone. Come on people do you know how far 350 ft is. And they only had scratches. Lmao America has become so easy.
Having that feature should bring down your life insurance policy let alone a decrease in auto insurance.
1st, how they even survived?
Honestly this should be on all phones and standard on all cars. Also dash cams, Should also be standard.
$999.00 for that phone. And Apple wants people to STILL pay for an emergency service feature they should include for FREE
Oh, I must say everything was sold perfect until you guys said that it’s free for the first two years
At that rate I don't think you got a lot of life ahead of you.
Amazing they survived that crash 🙀
Someone who drives over 4 1/2 hours a day. This is one of the main reasons I purchase mine..
ANDROID. FOLLOW UP ASAP. YOU KNOW THE DRILL.
Sam Kohl pumping his arms in the air. I wonder if this will be on the next Genius Bar Podcast episode
This just made me start crying , praise god they are okay & she had that phone !
his insurance is up thru the roof now lmao you aint getting a driving job now.
bad driving young male driver guilty .
This feature should be been there 10 years ago. Companies are introducing simple features with delayed releases because they can't find anything else to improve on.
“Free for the first 2 years” uhhhhh TF
Nothing is as crucial for remote catastrophes as an iPhone 14 for automatic crash detection and the satellite emergency recovery that only Apple is capable of providing. We'll be seeing many more of these iPhone rescues.
That's not a news , that's an ad.
RIDICULOUS and EVIL that Apple will F* charge for an emergency feature. Worse is for those that can’t pay the feature will be there, but not engaged to send lifesaving EMS. I crashed on my mountain bike quite hard, full OTB, somersaulted, and slid down a ravine, yet my fall detection on my Apple Watch, iPhone in my hip pack, didn’t pick up squawk; whereas another time I came to a simple fast stop on my mountain bike and it’s detected an emergency! Apple is a POS!
3RD YEAR ARRIVES..
STAY STRANDED BROKIE-Apple inc.
Oh good, and iphone commercial.
Don't text and drive
Since the cultural revolution of the sixties, it was made impossible to investigate and jail progressive globalist liberals. All 3rd world progressive leaders have always found a way out of their countries.
But here is some questions for Africa and Asia. '' Why do they insist in teaching your children to hate their cultures and countries ? Why is it that your leaders are chosen by them ? Most importantly, why are your children taught, that Britain and America is their real home ? Why is it that your country is deliberately kept poor ? WHY ? WAKE UP ! WAKE UP FAST
What they tell you is this will also activate if you ride an amusement park ride that is very jerk like a roller coaster!
I say if you have an iphone that should be free with itunes .
I can already see it “sorry didnt mean to call youse just droppped my phone”😂
Thank God for all the slave labor in China making those apple phones
Here’s the thing, cell providers have coverage almost everywhere in the USA now with exceptions of some wooded areas, but surprise if your carrier doesn’t have service dialing 911 or even 112 will call emergency services using ANY AVAILABLE NETWORK even if you’re not allowed roaming. FACT. Also cell carriers now have triangulation and A-GPS that even cross carrier can send that information to emergency services.
The ONLY time a satellite connection should be ever used is really if you’re in the middle of Nevada desert where potentially no carriers exist. Or in West Virginia where a radio blackout zone happens to be.
Jesus Christ called people everywhere to repent, so if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe with all your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved and inherit the kingdom of heaven and eternal life. To this, people would accept Jesus Christ in life in their hearts and told other people how good he is, how he saves, heals and frees and gives eternal life for free 2
Tim Cook just jizzed himself
Some of us still have 10s, 11s, 12s & 13s
Androids have been doing this for years, for free!
I went off a cliff too but all that happened was my flashlight turned on. ( Android )
The comment section is toxic.
Glad they were able to be saved. ❤
Hope apple stock rallys
Apple to the rescue
oh boy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I phone paid the couples to play the ad because iphone 14 market is going down.
I love how that is just an option for that phone satellite and crash detection that should’ve been a feature for at least iPhone, 12 and up what would’ve happened if somebody that had the iPhone 13 promax would’ve gotten in that crash Apple should make that a feature for every phone at least not just one line up💀
I can't tell if this a feel-good story, or an AD for iPhone Emergency Services.
I love how this service is free for the first two years! Is it safe to say that…Apple will soon be profiting from severe and potentially fatal automobile accidents? 🤔
great job iPhone 👍👍 but still all, thank God! the author of our lives 💙
How does a phone differentiate between being dropped off/thrown a ledge purposefully VS being in a car crash? It would make more sense if the phone could connect to the car's systems, and the car shared this information with the phone itself.
Yes. Give the consumer priceless security them monetize it to rake in even more trillions of dollars.
That is why I got the Apple Watch. I live alone and have fallen a few times.
Plot twist, playing with the phone caused the wreck.
I remember when I was hit in a car accident I realized my car had this feature lol. I was stunned and then heard someone over my speakers asking if I was ok and if we needed emergency services I was so confused but it had emergency services there pretty fast
android users be like 🫤🍌
And $10,000 for the helicopter ride not covered by insurance.
