Some of these are brutal. So be warned.

Some are sort of funny though...

Some of the older ones are too good to be true

Saw a documentary about a case like that. I think it was called The Curse of Monkey Island or something like that.

New fear unlocked.

Also observe how ghost attacks, vampire snacks and demonic possession go unrepresented in this list. (Bear attacks has its own list. Lightning strikes are a low statistic)

Also curiously absent, death by meteorite — meteorites have punched holes in engine blocks but so far have missed humans — and murder / assassination by hacked IoT device. Intravenous drug dispensors that are connected to the internet are often hooked up with dangerous medications like insulin or morphene, but to date, no one has exploited their poor security to kill someone.

You can be the first!

In the list there's "unknown Iraqi male" who died by meteor shower, 19th century, not too far in.

It is! The source is dated 2022 and is currently the only credible incident of death by meteor known. I had this coversation last before then.
