Removing a broken headphone jack connector from an iPad

My boss came to me at the end of a workday and asked if I might be able to help remove a headphone connector that had been broken off inside his son's iPad.
Removing it turned out to be pretty simple (gently soldered a wire to the top part and pulled on the wire).The connector came out in two pieces, which I found interesting. Fortunately after the top part was removed I was able to pull on the bottom piece with tweezers and extract it that way.
