Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge Saves Man Life In The Paris Terrorist Attack by Nobody: 9:25am On Dec 04, 2015
According to a French site, a man named Sylvestre was near the Stade de France, where France and Germany played a football friendly match. A gunman and a suicide bomber tried to storm the arena but were only able to carry out the attack near the site. Outside the stadium, a suicide plane and a shooter ruin the by exploding a bomb, and shooting rounds.

Sylvestre was hit by a section from the bomb. Under typical circumstances, he would have wound up a measurement in a body pack. Be that as it may, it just so happens, his newly purchased Samsung Galaxy S6 edge arrived to take the brunt of the assault.


Sylvestre, who bought the smartphone a few days ago, spoke on the phone when the attack began. Shrapnel from one of the explosions was toward him and reach full in the head, but found the smartphone Galaxy S6 in place. The jacket helped to protect the explosions.

On both sides of the phone, you can see what happened: on the one hand, an impact point and on the other, the fully cracked screen. The man was with a small mark resulting from the explosion and what appears to be a foot injury.

Cell phones and online networking had the real impact in getting the story out. One man of his word stuck at the Bataclan theater, where more than 100 were murdered amid a show by U.S. band Eagles of Death Metal, tweeted about the slaughter he had seen. Others caught sickening pictures seen all through the city, by utilizing the camera on their telephone.

Social networks were crucial to inform the world about the Paris attacks, either to official information or messages to relatives who are in town. Sylvestre will probably substitute the phone for a new and, fortunately, did not join the already frightening statistics of the attacks.





The video above is not in English, but you can understand what Sylvestre is trying to explain. In the event that the phone hadn’t arrived to take the hit, there is most likely about what might have transpired.

If "god" wants to save anyone, then he should use supernatural means. Not that you'll come and attribute 'random events' with positive outcome to your god of choice
