Prank video destroying new Apple smartphone receives 10m views, with some seemingly tricked into making 3.5mm hole in the bottom of their devices.

這則破壞新款蘋果手機的惡搞視頻瀏覽量高達1000萬，有些人甚至還真的上當，在自己的蘋果手機底部鉆出一個3.5毫米的耳機孔。

A video claiming that users can add a headphone socket to the iPhone 7, which only has a Lightning port, by drilling into the bottom of their phone has been watched almost 10m times.

視頻中，用戶可在只有一個Lightning接口的iPhone 7手機底部電鉆出一個新的耳機接口。該視頻已被觀看近1000萬次。

The prank video shows a man drilling a 3.5mm hole into the bottom left edge of the iPhone 7 held in a vice. It points to the row of small holes on the left side that replaced the headphone socket present on the iPhone 6S and claims that drilling into the second hole on the left reveals a hidden socket.

這一惡搞視頻中，男子先用鉗子將iPhone 7固定住，然后在手機左側底部鉆出一個3.5毫米的手機孔。手機左下方有一排小孔，正是iPhone 6S耳機接口所在的位置。視頻稱電鉆左側第二個孔可顯示出隱藏的耳機插孔。

Once the hole has been drilled the video shows an iPhone 7 playing music, although the sound comes out of the speakers, not the white headphones now inserted in the DIY hole.

視頻中，電鉆出小孔的iPhone 7手機能夠播放音樂，雖然這音樂不是通過插入“自制”小孔的白色耳機而是通過手機揚聲器傳出來的。

‘This video is for those who don’t want to get $159 wireless AirPods or have to insert your headphones into an adapter every time you listen to music’ says the caption of the video.

視頻說明稱“這一視頻主要針對那些想聽音樂，卻又不想花159美元購買蘋果AirPods無線耳機，或者不得不將耳機插入適配器的用戶。”

The video was produced by Sacramento, California-based Ukrainian YouTuber Taras Maksimuk who “specialises in smashing technology for your pleasure” according to his profile. Some of Maksimuk’s other videos include “what happens if you microwave an iPhone 7” and “can the iPhone 7 survive in liquid nitrogen for five minutes”.

視頻由擅長“只為娛樂‘虐待’蘋果”的Taras Maksimuk制作，這位烏克蘭裔的YouTube使用者來自加利福尼亞薩克拉門托。Maksimuk還制作過一些其他視頻，如“將iPhone 7放在微波爐里會發生什么？”，“放于液態氮中5分鐘，iPhone 7還能否‘存活’？”等。

In total Maksimuk has seven separate videos showing him destroying iPhone 7s, but that seemingly hasn’t stopped people drilling holes into the bottom of their new iPhones and causing irreparable damage.

Maksimuk共上傳了7個破壞iPhone 7的獨立視頻，但似乎未能阻擋人們在新買的iPhone手機底部鉆孔，造成不可挽回的巨大損失。

The YouTube video’s comment section – normally a place filled with vitriol and despair for humanity – was full of people claiming to have performed the operation and destroying their iPhone 7 in the process, the sincerity of which is questionable.

YouTube視頻討論區通常充滿了各種尖酸刻薄和對人性感到絕望的評論，此次評論區很多網友表示他們動手電鉆的過程中iPhone 7崩潰壞掉了，評論的真實性讓人懷疑。

Some Dude said: “WTF??? Fuck you! My screen turned black the moment I started drilling and now I can’t even open it.”

一些網友開罵：“這是什么玩意！×××！我剛開始鉆，屏幕就全黑了，現在開機都開不了。”

“TECHRAX YOU PIECE OF SHIT I DID THIS AND THE SOUND DOESN NOT WORK AT ALL,” said Artur.

網友亞瑟：“TechRax，×××！我鉆了孔之后手機根本不出聲音。”

Lukelaluke123 said: “ARE YOU KIDDING ME? I WAITD TILL MY DAD WAS SLEEP THEN I WENT TO THE GARAGE AND GOT HIS DIRLL AND DID THIS AND NOW MY IPHONE WONT NOT EVEN WORK!!!!!”

網友Lukelaluke123：“你是在和我開玩笑嗎？我一直等到我爸睡著了，才跑到車庫拿出他的電鉆，但鉆完我的手機連用都不能用了！！！”

The video received over 134,000 likes, but just under 88,000 dislikes. It’s unclear how many of the dislikes were from people who had been tricked into drilling a hole into their ￡600-plus smartphone.

這一視頻目前已收到超過13.4萬的贊，但不喜歡的人也高達8.8萬之多。尚不清楚這些不喜歡的人里究竟有多少人上當受騙，在他們花600多英鎊買來的蘋果手機上鉆孔。

Not only will drilling a hole into the bottom of the iPhone 7 not reveal a hidden headphone socket, but it will also ruin the waterproofing of the smartphone, which requires the membranes covering the holes in the bottom of the phone to be undamaged.

在iPhone 7底部鉆孔不僅不能顯示出隱藏的耳機接口，還會破壞手機的防水性能，因為防水要求手機底部小孔上覆蓋的一層防水膜要完好無損。

Maksimuk’s video is the latest in a long run of pranks targeting gullible iPhone buyers. Pranksters managed to convince some users that the iOS 7 update magically made their iPhones waterproof in 2024, while some iPhone 6 users were tricked into microwaving their smartphones while seeking longer battery life. Both pranks only led to destroyed smartphones.

Maksimuk最近上傳的這一視頻是為了惡搞那些容易受騙的蘋果手機用戶。之前就有惡作劇者成功使用戶上當受騙，如2024年將iOS升級能讓手機防水，將iPhone 6手機放到微波爐里加熱以延長手機電池壽命。兩者的最終結果都是手機“罷工”壞掉。
