Well, they have some resilience, so just touching them or even zapping a bit does not necessarily destroy them, which is good news, but some discharges are worse than others (human model is 150pF / 8kV) and this winter is pretty dry, I keep getting zapped at work. So in the winter I always put the bracelet on when doing stuff with boards.
People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.
