Disclosed is an electronic device including an inertia sensor, an atmospheric pressure sensor, a processor operatively connected to the inertia sensor, the atmospheric pressure sensor, and a memory operatively connected to the processor, wherein the memory is configured to store instructions which, when executed, cause the processor to acquire acceleration sensing data from the inertia sensor and atmospheric pressure sensing data from the atmospheric pressure sensor, sense whether the electronic device has fallen based on the acceleration sensing data and the atmospheric pressure sensing data, and determine whether a user has fallen, based on the acceleration sensing data, when it is determined that the electronic device has fallen.
