iPad Survives 100,000+ Foot Fall From Space [VIDEO]

Each day, Mashable highlights one noteworthy YouTube video. Check out all our viral video picks.

If you were wondering if your iPad had any chance of surviving a drop from space, we've found your answer: Yes. Should you, for some reason, decide your Apple tablet is up for a dive from the earth's outer sphere, know that the fall alone will not cause its demise.

To put it bluntly, this video is blatant self-promotion for G-Form cases. The company claims its products absorb more than 90% of the energy from high-speed impact. But when it comes down to the space fall, who's too say G-Forms are the only iPad protectors that will survive a fall from space?

This promotional gimmick has become a G-Form staple, with videos of an iPad being tossed from a speeding car, launched by a slingshot and used in a game of Frisbee on its website.

If you were convinced by the space fall, you can get your own Extreme Edge for iPad for $44.95.

We still like this awesome -- albeit dizzying -- video for its gorgous views of a yellow-encased tablet tumbling through outer space.
