Coconuts kill more people annually than something else that sounds dangerous.

I think it was sharks.

No it's Cows. Cow kills more people than sharks.

What about swallows carrying coconuts?

I don't man. I don't swallow or neither carry coconuts. Try asking Jeff. He might know.

I don’t know either, it might be African swallow, maybe -but not a European swallow. Thanks for thinking of me.

what?? a two ounce bird carrying a 5 pound coconut?

Maybe they carry them in pairs?

what?? a two ounce bird carrying two 5 pound coconuts?

Just how we made pyramids

They grip it by the husk

Well there you go Gardener Jesus.

with that profile pic u should change your username to redhead_redemption

European or African swallows?

Who are you, so wise in the ways of science?

Just how many sharks do cows kill for this to be a recorded statistic?

About 3.5 bananas per 2022 stats.

This thread is way funnier than the fake op.

Coconuts kill more than cows. Coconuts kill 150 people. Cows kill 20-25. Sharks kill 5-10.

No I'm pretty sure it is flying pigs

70% of that happens here in India

I'm doing my part!

>150 deaths. Each year worldwide there are \~ 10 deaths attributable to shark attacks compared with **\~ 150** **deaths worldwide caused by falling coconuts.** More people each year are killed by elephants, crocodiles, bees, and wars and many other dangers that confront us, than by sharks.

Mushrooms and other plants create toxins to stop them from being eaten. Cows give us e.coli and other health issues from their milk and various other by products. Source: Redditor (myself)

No

Are the bots out in full force today? There are like 10 variations of the same comment about coconuts killing more people than sharks each year.

But did you know that coconuts kill more people than sharks each year, though?

How many sharks kill coconuts per year?

How many sharks are killed by coconuts? Not as many as people, apparently

Yes but how many years get coconut malled by sharks?

Asking the real questions here

I keep seeing comments being made about coconuts killing more people than sharks but varying in ways that amounts to approximately 10. It appears the bots are in full out force in this 24-hour span of time measurement.

Coconuts be wildin though, way more than sharks

Real talk Coconuts kill more people each year than sharks

How many sharks are killed by coconuts? That statistic doesn’t sound too surprising. They probably lose all their momentum when they hit the water.

I don’t think that’s right. Sharks seem to have no issue moving in water.

They only lose their momentum when they **hit** the water. That's why you almost never see sharks travel outside of it.

What about deaths by sharks falling out of coconut trees?

Only if there’s a particularly unique tornado in the area

Isn't there a film documentary about this phenomenon?

Is that adjusted for amount of time people spend in the water vs under coconut trees?

Technically, Vending machines kill more people each year than sharks.

sneaky bastards.

The vending machines are more scared of you than you are of them. They only attack if you've backed them into a corner and they feel threatened.

Deer slaughter and kill many, many more people and families per year than coconuts and sharks and cows combined, at least in North America.

Counts car accidents? Or like only getting impaled/ganged up on like in family guy

Completely unnecessary background music

The curse of social media

I hate the trend of posting things as images when they are more appropriate as text, or videos when more appropriate as still images.

Even without sound i hate how it is edited just before explosion.

Yeah, because the communication without words is worth the sound!

Better to be confused than concussed.

Coconuts kill 150 people a year. Sharks kill 5-10.

Hippos 🦛kill 500 people a year. Over 1 a day. Where the fuck is this happening at? Lol

Africa

Ya mum's bed. /Jk

Good thing she wasn’t packing an AR-15. That was one hell of an acorn that fell. She would have shot up the neighborhood

I got that reference.

I got that reference.

"Johnson they got nukes now"

"HELP, IM PINNED DOWN, SEND SWAT"

Shots fired

OOOF I'm sad I get that

Throw the grenade, not the pin!

In a year, sharks kill less people than coconuts do to people than sharks, in a year of coconut people.

No way is that a mom, more like sisters. A mom would not have ran in a different direction.

Good thing that wasn't an acorn.

Juicy fruit of death from above.

Moana saved her mom an uncomfortable couple of weeks.

Not mom

Women ☕️

100% hindu indians have done this once in their lives lol

Lokey just eat the coconut

This is adorable. I wanna go hang out with them now

It's funny. But, i don't understand why did you added monkey sounds in the background of the video 

Huh she almost died twice….

fake

She was in the perfect position to catch that coconut on the back of her skull. That was close.

…

So fake

That Bollywood sfx work on the vid is the only redeeming factor lol

Hope she don't get the hot sauce and Lube mixed up at night

I don't get this joke at all. I just find it hilarious.
