A young woman glued to her cellphone took a spill down an entire flight of stairs recently in a subway station in Nanjing, in east China’s Jiangsu Province, after missing a step. A surveillance camera shows the moment the woman fell down the stairs and hit the floor face-first. The woman became unconscious and was sent to the hospital immediately, with the help of nearby people. Local police officers suggest people not use their cellphones when walking.
There are many “smartphone zombie” or distracted smartphone users in China. It’s reported that many distracted pedestrians have caused accidents. After the video went viral online, many netizens said people should be more careful when using cellphones.
