How often do you drop your phone?

According to a new study, your age may determine the frequency.

A new poll of 2,000 U.S. adults, divided evenly among Generation Z (ages 18–26), millennials (27–42), Generation X (43–58), and baby boomers (59–77), found Gen Z to be the clumsiest generation, averaging 187 “close call” phone drops annually. 

In fact, 79% of Gen Zers surveyed said their current phone was damaged due to a drop, including a cracked screen or damaged battery.

For reference, the average person - from all those surveyed, dropped their phone 140 times in a year.
