big_kev Posted October 14, 2007 Report Posted October 14, 2007 Yep its true, no doubt about it... ;) The government statistics into deaths caused by external influences.....a Brick, a Knife, a Car, a Bus.....Show beyond any doubt than Men lead the way when it comes to this particular form of demise. Staring at an early age we seek out and locate dangerous objects and situations and unselfishly throw ourselves in harms way. Into the toddler stage we leap ahead 200% ahead of the girlies due to our advanced hazard perception . By the early and late Teens we are 300% ahead of the girls as we willingly throwing ourselves at hard objects in sheer stupidity. During the late twenties we continue to forge ahead in spectacular fashion, usually involving motor vehicles and alchohol. We reach our ultimate performance peak in our early to middle thirties when with our learned knowledge and experience we achieve a self kill ratio of four to one in comparison to the ladies.... ;) Even into our forties and fifties despite middle age taking its toll we manage to sacrifice ourselves at a rate of almost three to one. As we approach retirement, even with our aching bones and depleated numbers we still endeavour to maintain the 200% mark. Only when we reach our eighties do the women catch us up. This is mainly because most of us are dead . I always knew we were better..... ;) Quote
