We should have known that this would happen. Riding on the fidget spinner craze, it was only a matter of time before someone combined the toy everyone is obsessed with and the phone everyone is obsessed with, the iPhone 7.

That's right, YouTuber EverythingApplePro drilled a hole in an iPhone 7 (and a couple of other iPhones, ughhh) and then inserted a ball bearing to create the most expensive fidget spinner yet. It's ridiculous and a complete waste of iPhones, but hey, sometimes you just need to fidget with something.

While we don't recommend destroying transforming your own iPhone(s) into a fidget spinner, if you must, please be smart and take out the battery before doing so. Drilling through a lithium-ion battery is dangerous and will cause it to explode.

Who know's what's next? How about Apple Watch spinners, or Galaxy S8 spinners, or Pixel spinners? Let your imagination run wild!
