5 of the Least Likely Ways to Die

When it comes down to the wire, Death truly doesn’t have to try very hard.

When it comes down to the wire, Death truly doesn’t have to try very hard.

In fact, if you think about it, it’s quite unfair (and this would help emphasise why one needs FRANK.NET.

Aside from the myriad ways we all know the bucket can suddenly be kicked, there are also a bunch of ways that seem highly unlikely to end your reign here on this Earth, but might, if the timing is right.

  1. Coconuts. Can. End. You. In fact, 150 people die a year from being hit on the head by a falling coconut. Watch your step beneath those palm trees, folks.
  2. It’s hard out there for left-handed folks. Over 2 500 left-handed people die every year from using products meant for right-handed people. Obviously, the person who is upset about this has never used scissors for left-handed people and really doesn’t understand the struggle.
  3. More people drown in bath water than they do in swimming pools.
  4. You can legitimately suffocate yourself while you sleep. In the US, around 300 people die a year from it. Of course, this means one is never sleeping again.
  5. There is a 1 in 74 million chance of dying by being struck by an asteroid. What does one even say to that? Because, while there might be 74 million chances it won’t happen, there is still a chance it will.

Don’t try this at home, y’all.

Now that we all feel so much comfortable in our skins, the next step is to ensure that you don’t leave your life hanging when it suddenly ends.

This is where FRANK.NET comes in.

Since Death doesn’t have to try very hard, neither should you. And let’s be honest, do you want to? Not likely. You’re too busy eyeing out those palm trees and deciding where to stand with great intent. Because, you know, asteroids.
