Following the security breaches reported on the new iPhone 5S since its release, it now seems as if there is another unintended way of accessing the phone – via a human nipple.

A man has released a YouTube video that apparently shows him unlocking the device by placing his chest on the fingerprint reader.

The Apple gadget seems to open after recognising his right nipple when it has been registered, with the iPhone 5S’ Touch ID sensor reportedly treating it like a digit.

The two-minute video has already gained more than half a million views on YouTube, with many users surprised at how the ‘Japanese’ man unlocks his phone.




Diogo Nóbrega suggested the iPhone 5S owner looked like he was feeding a child.

‘It looks like he is breastfeeding the iPhone,’ he wrote.

Neu3 was glad to admit his dislike for used phones after seeing the clip.

He added: ‘This is why I don’t buy my phones second hand.’
