David Carlin, from the UK, thought it would be a good idea to navigate a 50-foot World War II boat he was steering with his iPad. The first thing which went wrong was Apple’s superior networking technology which dropped the wi-fi.
Following the Apple way, he then blindly entered the UK's busiest shipping lane where it promptly crashed into a cargo ferry and sank. Ultimately, Carlin had to make a Mayday call and wait for rescuers to help him out.
Thankfully, no one was injured in the entire ordeal. Carlin, though, did take a hit to his bank account, as he was slapped with a £3,700 fine.
The Tame Apple Press says that Carlin was an idiot and should have invested huge amounts of money in an LTE-equipped iPad before setting sail on the high seas.
The bloke you should feel sorry for is the 60-year old Danish captain of the ferry, called Petunia Seaways, who did not notice he had sunk an Apple fanboy and sailed on. He was also fined £3,000. Personally, we think he should have been rewarded for nearly raising the intellectual average of humanity by removing one dimwit from the gene pool.
