And here's a little Christmas cheer for all From the Australian Bureau of Statistics. Mind you I'm sure that most of the mishaps listed below occur world wide with many variations. ( I doubt it)

*31 Australians have died since 1996 by watering their Christmas tree while the fairy lights were plugged in.

*19 Australians have died in the last 3 years by eating Christmas decorations they believed were chocolate.

*Hospitals reported 4 broken arms last year after cracker pulling incidents. (saltines can be tough)

*101 Australians since 1997 have had to have broken parts of plastic toys pulled out of the soles of their feet.


*18 Australians had serious burns in 1998 trying on a new jumper with a lit cigarette in their mouth.

*A massive 543 Australians were admitted to casualty in the last two years after opening bottles of beer with their teeth or eye socket.... EYE SOCKET??????

*5 Australians were injured last year in accidents involving out of control scalextric cars.
(what the heck are these Kronic???)

*3 Australians die each year testing if a 9V battery works on their tongue.

*142 Australians were injured in 1998 by not removing all the pins from new shirts.

*58 Australians are injured each year by using sharp knives instead of screwdrivers.

and finally: *8 Australians cracked their skull in 1997 after falling asleep (passing out) while throwing up into the toilet.*

YEP! its great to be an Australian, lucky that they have strict gun control laws or every second person would be shot in the foot!...

Heehe got it from a Ausssie site, could you tell

Scalectric car sets are those little cars that race around tracks you build. You control them with a hand held device that allows them to speed up or go slow depending on how hard you press the trigger.

Roofcutter, are you sure that these statistics were taken from Australia and not
Canada? Being killed by touching their tongue to a Battery.. Damn... I used to check my cars that way. :eek:pps
