Today is the day the iPhone 5 lands in the hands of customers around the world. Though many pre-ordered, a large number of people decided to brave the elements and wait in line for their iPhone. Below is a gallery of iPhone 5 launch lines from around the world that we curated from Twitter. Some of the lines are short, some of the lines are long, but almost everyone seems to be having fun while waiting for their next iPhone.
