In recent weeks, there’s been an upsurge in scaremongering about phones damaging brains and making people lose IQ points; maybe this can finally be put to rest as an iPhone has literally saved a man from death.

American Sam Ray was fixing his truck when the jack failed, causing the vehicle to fall on top of him. The man was trapped and nobody was around to help him when he heard Siri activate on his phone. Ray shouted “call 911,” and found that his iPhone actually did make a call to the emergency services.

He was rescued shortly afterwards, thanks to Siri.
