Boy Hacker Uses Apple Store’s Own Secret WiFi Network To Show Stormtroopers Humping On Every Apple TV [Video]

Henry D. is an awesome boy hacker out of the UK, and this video of him “pwning” a local Apple Store is just too cute and funny for words.

Using the secret gesture used to reset the Smart Sign iPads at the local Apple Store, Henry was able to use Apple’s own secret, hidden WiFi network to push AirPlay streaming video on all the Apple TVs around the London White City Apple Store.

Being a teenage boy, Henry chose to demo his exploit using an Internet meme video of a Stormtrooper humping. He’s posted full instructions on how to perform the exploit at your local Apple Store over on his official blog, which includes Apple’s “secret” iPad unlocking gesture: a long tap at the top left of the screen.

Thanks for sharing your exploit with us, Henry! You’re a weird kid, it’s true, but this was the best video we watched all morning. You can follow Henry on Twitter here
