What is wrong with my iPhone?

My iPhone just randomly shut off for some reason, and now it is not turning back on. When I plug it up into iTunes, it recognizes it, and I can sync it, but it says that the iPhone can not be backed up due to the fact that it can not connect or something to the phone. What should I do? If I try restoring it to its original settings, will that screw it up even more? or what? Thanks!

Yeah that happened to a really cute girl I know, and when I fixed it, boy was I rewarded!

Only by a hug though, But I thought it was a big deal :)

wind some duct tape around it. If it can't be fixed by duct tape then it's definitely broken!
