came across these figures and thought you guys might find them amusing although some people have sadly died through their own foolishness
142 Brits were injured in 1991 by not removing all the pins from a new shirt
58 injured each year by using sharp knives instead of screwdrivers
31 have died since 1996 by watering their christmas tree while the lightrs were plugged in
3 die each year testing a 9v battery on their tongue
19 have died in the last three years beleiving that christmas decorations were made of chocolate
British hospitals reported 4 broken arms in one year afyer christmas cracker-pulling accidents
18 had serious burns in 2000 trying on a new jumper with a lit cigarette in their mouth
543 were admitted to A & E in the last two years after trying to open bottles of beer with their teeth
5 were injured in accidents involving out of control scalextric cars
And, in 2000 8 were admitted with a fractured skull after throwing up in the toilet
