Count On It: 14 Hard-To-Believe Numbers

Are you sitting down? Wracked going to share some numbers with you that might make your head spin. According to a recent study, the average American adult spends more than 11 hours a day in front of screens. That's right, ELEVEN HOURS. And when you break it down, that number includes time spent on smartphones, computers, TVs, and any other type of screen. Eleven hours is a lot of time! Especially when you consider that we only have 24 hours in a day. So what does all this screen time mean for our health and wellbeing? Are we sacrificing our physical and mental health for the sake of entertainment and convenience?

Let us give you the cold hard numbers. Want to know how much the most expensive parking spot costs? How many pandas have twins? How densely populated the most densely populated place on Earth was? Of course, you do. We've got answers. You can count on it. 

 Let's take a closer look at this issue and find out.
