Dan Woodley, an American filmmaker has luckily survived after being trapped under debris during the Haiti earthquake on January 12. He used his iPhone’s first aid app to treat a compound fracture of his leg by making an improvised tourniquet as well as a bandage to stop the bleeding from his head wound. The iPhone app also warned him not to fall asleep after a head trauma and he used his iPhone’s alarm to make sure he wakes up every 20 minutes in case he dozed off. Finally, Woodley was rescued after a grueling 65 hours of agony and despair with nothing but his strong faith in God, a strong will to survive for his family and his iPhone to keep him company. Woodley said that the iPhone was God’s instrument to help him survive and he is just so grateful to be given another chance to spend his life with his family.
