DYK you are most likely to be killed by a vending machine than a shark attack? (thanks for this fact, Moss)"


That reminds me of something that happened at school last lear. This one kid was shaking the snack machine and it fell on him. He was okay though!

Elizabeth (fantasynerd365) huh. That's interesting.


message 149: by [deleted user] (new)

Makes sense, you stuff your hand up, accidentally pull the wrong way and it falls on you. I'm surprised it's only four people who've died that way.
