These leftover tips can back you avoid becoming just unorthodox statistic. Accidents are the leading cause of death accompanied by U.S. men 18 to 50 years old, accounting for 37,000 of the more or less 148,000 annual fatalities. Some instances of unplanned death, to use the qualified term, are unavoidablewrong place, wrong timebut most aren't. Staying liven up requires recognizing danger, feeling fear, and reacting. "We interpret uncovered cues through our visceral panic centers very quickly," says Harvard University's David Ropeik, author of How risky Is It, Really? worry is, even smart, sober, experienced men can fail to register signals of an imminent threat. Here we present 20 easy-to-miss risks, and how to avoid or survive them.
1. Outsmart Wildlife.
If you come face-to-face later a wild animal, the natural wave is to bolt, but that can motivate the animal's predatory instinct. on July 6, 2011, Brian Matayoshi, 57, and his wife, Marylyn, 58, were hiking in Yellowstone National Park later they came on a grizzly bear and fled, screaming. Brian was bitten and clawed to death; Marylyn, who had stopped and crouched in back a tree, was approached by the bear but left unharmed.
STAT: Each year three to five people are killed in North America in wild animal attacks, primarily by sharks and bears.
DO: Avoid shark-infested waters, unless you are Andy Casagrande. As for bears, always carry repellent pepper spray can later hiking; it can stop a charging bear from as much as 30 feet away. To cut the risk of an attack, have the funds for bears a unplanned to get out of your way. "Try to stay in the open," says Larry Aumiller, superintendent of Alaska's McNeil River divulge Game Sanctuary. "If you have to pretend to have through thick brush, create noise by approbation and shouting." 2. Don't Mess later Vending Machines.
You skipped lunch. You compulsion a snack. You increase grant into a vending machine, press the buttons, and nothing comes out. You get mad.
STAT: Vending machines caused 37 deaths amongst 1978 and 1995, crushing customers who rocked and toppled the dispensers. No recent stats exist, but the machines are yet a danger.
DON'T: Skip lunch.
3. Stay on the Dock.
On May 20, 2013, Kyle McGonigle was on a wharf on Kentucky's coarse River Lake. A dog swimming comprehensible yelped, and McGonigle, 36, axiom that it was struggling to stay above water. He dove in to keep the dog, but both he and the animal drowned, victims of electric-shock drowning (ESD). Cords plugged into an outlet on the wharf had slipped into the water and electrified it.
STAT: The number of annual deaths from ESD in the U.S. are unknown, previously they are counted accompanied by all drownings. But anecdotal evidence shows that ESD is widespread. ESD prevention groups have successfully urged some states to enact safety standards, including the installation of ground-fault circuit interrupters and a central shutoff for a dock's electrical system.
DON'T: Swim within 100 yards of any wired dock. But pull off check whether docks follow safety standards.
