Came across this chart while reading the Economist this morning and was impressed that over half of these causes of death have made their way through the ER since I started working there. Of those, only a handful have actually killed anyone in my presence (though the guy who was electrocuted on his roof while cleaning out his aluminum gutters with a metal rake during a lightning storm was clearly asking for it).Still, given the odds, I wonder if I should invest in some flame-retardant pajamas...
