Someone tried to CUT THIS MACBOOK IN HALF, can I repair it?

This one's a doozy... Somebody has taken a saw to a MacBook Pro and, I'm basically speechless. Anyway let's maybe fix the thing?

Nice how they packaged it so securely to prevent damage in transit.

[lukey]

my theory: the butterfly keyboard pissed the owner off one too many times and they decided to take revenge

[glencindy]

My guess as to how this happened? A disgruntled spouse or significant other taking revenge. They just didn’t realize they came short of destroying the whole computer.

[gadgetmadlad]

Brings a whole new meaning to cutting edge.

[laszlojanoki]

Never seen a product in worse condition shipped with such quality packaging LOL

[jandavids]

Youtuber: Makes droptest with a macbook

Luke Miani: No problem, I'll repair it.

[ajiteshsharma]

It's like two siblings were going to share 1 MacBook by cutting in half😂

next video: This MacBook was turned into A BOMB, can I repair it?

[wenjiun]

My theory : The owner got attacked by samurai sword wielder... the Macbook Pro saved his/her life.

Finally restoration content. Really miss this

Luke: “Why would someone even do this?”

Previous owner: *”My goals are beyond your understanding.”*

If Luke was one of those third party repair shops without being Apple Certified I would still pay him to repair on of my devices even if it would void my warranty

That they went in and removed the battery before sawing it indicates it was probably an institution (school, government, hospital etc.) that wanted to dispose of them and not resell them. They were not smart enough however to destroy the SSD which is really the only thing that needs to be destroyed to prevent data recovery.

because of how many of the MacBooks he fixed before, He has reached the point that I'm not even surprised if the MacBook he received has bullet holes in, dropped way too many times, and even being dipped in lava, and still manages to fix it!

[davidrogis]

Luke I totally agree with you regarding sawing a MacBook Pro. But thankfully you were there to make what looked like an impossible task into something that at least now works. I really enjoy all your videos and look forward to always seeing what’s next. Thank you!

[justbulma]

That poor MacBook Pro oh my goodness that broke my heart this video will definitely get over a million views watching the whole repair process was so cool

[simaocunha]

Seeing this on my dear Macbook Pro... Man I felt the pain!

[Boodieman]

My guess is it was supposed to be a way of destroying a computer before getting rid of it. I wonder when Luke will start welding the cases back together.

[Hamyhamster]

I have worked and saved many months to be able to buy my first MacBook so I take extreme caution and treat it with love. this made my blood boil seeing the condition the laptop was in. clearly caused by someone who has money to waste and absolute moron for taking their anger out on a machine.

[stevensmith]

I have been building and repairing computers since 1982 and this was the most interesting ever!!! Most damages are accidental but for this the person had to be pretty upset (maybe at someone else eh?). Great job Luke. Love watching your videos. Thanks!
