Pedestrians are just as distracted as they were 25 years ago when nobody carried a phone. There is no major epidemic of people falling on sidewalks because they're too busy looking at their phones, and even bringing it up in the video is shifting the blame from the real cause. It's exactly the same thing as including a bit about pedestrians on their phones in a piece about distracted driving.
