1. It's probably not turning on because you've seriously damaged it.

2. Getting your iPhone 6 replaced "for free" under the circumstances you described is not going to happen. Period.

If you don't have AppleCare or some other phone insurance, you're not going to be able to get it replaced for free.

Even if it was still under warranty, you wouldn't be able to "get a new one replaced for free" if you physically damaged it like this.

The warranty only covers manufacturer's defects.

Exactly this!
