Maybe we're not "cool" because we don't think it's funny to
destroy hundreds of dollars worth of innocent electronics in order to
market your products, just as the makers of cheap portable grill EZ
Grill have done with a trio of high-end phones. Following the same path
as those silly "Will it Blend?" commercials (spoiler: it always blends),
this ad tosses an iPhone 4, T-Mobile G2, and HTC Surround
on the fire in an attempt to see which one survives the longest. The
winner here is really beside the point in our mind -- you'll have to
check out the video below -- as all we see are close to $2,000 in
smartphones wasted to drum up some publicity (and hey, it worked,
because here we are giving the EZ Grill priceless exposure ourselves).
Then again, we always cringe when strangers lift up their laptops by
the screen, so perhaps we're just a little too sensitive about these
things.
