How durable is the new iPhone 5?

My brother has one and he's dropped it countless times and it hasn't shattered, but the sides get really scuffed up. Has anyone else had trouble breaking the new iPhone? I know that if you drop the 4S, you already need a new phone.

The screen does seem to be a little more durable granted, as my hubby's iphone 5 has dropped a couple of times, but the screen has not shattered. His hasn't scuffed either strangely enough. Unlike my 4s, which I dropped once, and shattered my screen into tiny pieces.Re the youtube vid, the samsung SIII coating is plastic, so it wouldn't break anyway.

here you go.

the point of posting this video is to show the durability, not to compare it to the SGSIII

Like all things, you could drop it once and breaks or 1000 times and nothing
