.50 BMG Proof iPhone Case?

A Japanese company claims one of their iPhone cases, which is made from steel, can withstand a .50 BMG bullet.

I would love to see a video of a .50 BMG round being fired into it. I would be surprised if the iPhone survived the shock of the impact.

    On the company's website,
    The notes that below the advertisement says:
    被弾後のiPhoneの動作は保証しません。
    That is "Doesn't ensure the iphone's usabllity after being shot." in Japanese.

    Those damn liers........
