we all knew an animal would kill him, it was bound to happen!
I wish he cut himself shaving, slipped, whacked his head off the sink and died. No-body would of seen that coming!

there is some seriously f'd stuff -
2008: Abigail Taylor, age 6, died nine months after several of her internal organs were partially sucked out of her lower body while she sat on an excessively powerful swimming pool drain. After several months, surgeons replaced her intestines and pancreas with donor organs. Unfortunately, she later succumbed to a rare transplant-related cancer.

That's not anywhere on the inernet but wikipedia and forums, I'd say it's rubbish.

2006: Erika Tomanu, A seven-year-old girl in Saitama, Japan, died when she was sucked down the intake pipe of a current pool at a water park. The grill that was meant to cover the inlet came off, yet lifeguards at the pool at the time deemed it safe enough to allow swimmers to stay in the water as they had issued a verbal warning of the situation. She was sucked head first more than 10 metres down the pipe by the powerful pump and it took rescuers more than 6 hours to remove her by digging through concrete to access the pipe. [136]

Some nasty stuff in there but fascinating all the same
Like both the Lees (Bruce and Brandon) being in the list, and the guy poisoned after 1400 bottles of radium water

'Three hours before the explosion, engineers noticed a drop in the pressure, but they turned up the pressure back to normal instead of checking for leaks'
