Top 10 Ordinary Places You Could Easily Die In
Possibilities of death are all around us, even in places we may not often think about. Always remember to stay safe no matter where you are. I do not mean to scare people with this list.
Yes, even your own living shelter poses many hazards. Your furnace could have a gas leak, your home could have electrical surges, or the roof could fall down on you any minute.
It's important to check your home for any possible dangers. Small mishaps can result in major problems as well.
Not every neighbourhood is a safe one to live in. In some, the rates of shootings, brutal fights, and car accidents are high. There are also chances of someone's dog attacking you or an object from someone's balcony falling on your head. Depending on which type of neighbourhood you live in, the dangers are different.
A fun place for children can be a potential danger. Always keep an eye on your children when they play. For example, they could fall from a high height if they're climbing where they're not supposed to, and you're not paying attention to them.
Schools are intended to be a safe learning environment for students, but they aren't always like that. A fire might burn the school down with people inside or a shooting could occur.
I've heard a lot about school shootings, especially in the United States.
Lots of places in nature are generally dangerous. An empty field may not seem ideal for dangers, but it is. Wild field-dwelling animals such as wolves or bulls could attack you when you don't see it coming. Fields are also dangerous to be in during heavy storms. If there's a thunderstorm or tornado and there's no shelter nearby, you're doomed.
Many shootings have taken place in shopping areas as well. You could also have a chance of being trampled on, especially during events such as Black Friday.
While incidents like those are uncommon, they're still possible.
The most common accidents are drownings. Lifeguards aren't always on duty, and it's a terrible idea to swim in deep ends of a pool if you don't know how to swim.
Swimming is a vital skill to learn.
Very easy to die here, just drown!
Not only drowning but skin infections caused by sunburns, shark attacks, and storms pose a threat to you while at the beach. Stay prepared.
Just because animals are caged doesn't mean you're safe. You never know when an animal could break out of its cage and run amok. It's especially dangerous if that animal is something like a lion or an ape. Cageless zoos speak for themselves.
Also, be careful in petting zoos. The animals there may unexpectedly attack you.
This one speaks for itself, although most people will assume a ride is safe to go on. Choose wisely when going on rides. If the ride looks unstable or you know it has had a history of mechanical failure, don't go on it. The most dangerous rides are rollercoasters. There have been incidents, such as when a coaster box falls off the coaster. That's one of the reasons why I don't like rollercoasters.
When you go to the top of a skyscraper and look out over the world, you feel unstoppable! The dangers are that you could fall off or the building could collapse, among others.
It's so easy to die here, just walk at the wrong time and get smushed by a car!
