    Statistics like this are bunk. If I’m camping in the forest my chances of having a bad encounter with a bear are astronomically higher than drowning in a bathtub. Context is everything when it comes to your specific risk profile.

      Except your chances of having a bad encounter with a bear are almost zero. Because bears almost never attack humans. Which is the point.
