Seems to me a hip high fall shouldn't crack a bottle (although, as Adam pointed out, it isn't ideal). I suppose it depends on how full the bottle is, how tall you are, the surface involved, etc. However, I did have a problem with an LIC bottle leaking for no reason. It was never dropped and always stored inside. After I found it leaking, I transferred the rest to a water bottle...no problem since doing so.
As a matter of fact, several others commented on the same issue with LIC in this thread.
By the way, I agree that Adam's products are top notch--to include packaging and presentation. It just seems as though there may be some sort of issue with LIC.
