With the next WWDC keynote just around the corner, fans are eagerly anticipating what Craig Federighi, also known as Hair Force One, has in store for us this year. Known for his comedic skits and dramatic entrances, Craig always manages to steal the show and keep viewers entertained. From jumping out of planes to summoning iPads with Magneto powers, Craig’s antics never fail to amuse.
One of Craig’s most memorable moments was when he threw himself out of a plane for WWDC 2024. Dressed in a corporate jumpsuit and wearing a custom helmet shaped like his own head, Craig packed his AirPods before jumping from over 12,000 feet. His nonchalant attitude and attention to detail, like turning off Airplane Mode before deploying his parachute, had viewers both amused and impressed.
In another iconic entrance, Craig channeled his inner James Bond by dramatically revealing a vintage red sports car and driving to a hidden Apple base. Complete with an OTT vertical sliding door and Apple CarPlay installed in the retro vehicle, Craig’s flair for the dramatic was on full display.
But it’s not all action and adventure for Craig. In a more romantic skit, he seduced a MacBook by dimming the lights to a sultry pink and playing Barry White in the background. His intimate stare at the laptop had viewers both laughing and cringing at the same time.
And let’s not forget Craig’s ability to summon an iPad with Magneto powers. With a serious expression of concentration, Craig showed off his skills by summoning and sending back an iPad at will. His commitment to the joke was truly commendable.
With Craig’s history of taking leaps of faith, doing parkour through buildings, and even heading ‘downstairs’ via a secret elevator ride, fans can’t wait to see what he has in store for this year’s WWDC keynote. Love him or hate him, Craig Federighi always brings a touch of humor and excitement to Apple events, making him a fan favorite year after year.

Craig Federighi, Apple’s Senior Vice President of Software Engineering, is known for his charismatic on-stage presence and memorable moments during Apple events. One of his standout moments was when he surprised the audience by shredding a guitar solo on stage.
