What happens to the iPhone stopwatch after 1000 hours?

Well, the world ends. Planes crash, computers fail, people starve, it’s the apocalypse.

Seriously, we don’t know how this kid came up with the idea to run the iPhone’s stopwatch for 1000 hours (whether he did so legitimately or just started the stopwatch and changed the date/time in iPhone preferences is debatable), but it’s interesting to see how the iPhone handles the extra digit in the hours-place.

Turns out, the iPhone keeps on ticking, but the stopwatch display no longer shows the seconds, just the hours and minutes. A bit anti-climactic, isn’t it?
