A photoflash problem with WiFi die

So, let me get this right ... you need to be 10cm away, max, 11cm doesn't quite cut it, for the Pi to, err, break?

tell me, why the hell would you use a flash that close anyway? I don't get it.


would it not be better to use the Pi as a frisby against a brick wall, shurely that would work to cause the same effect?
