R/accidents and r/darwinawards really ground me in the present and confront me with my mortality. Curiously enough I think watching strangers die on the internet has been beneficial to my mental equilibrium (not gore stuff, mind you, that’s decidedly un-beneficial).

Some of them are like finaldestination shit where you literally weren’t doing anything wrong or risky and then bam, life’s over for you by sheer astronomical-chance happenstance—but some of them they def fucky wuckied

I still think about the one where a guy who works on an airport touches a floor fan that just so happens to be wired wrong or something. And that's it, that's the fluke, unexpected, undignified, awful, freak accident end of his life. All his hopes and dreams cut short because he touched a fan in passing. And then a clip of his death ends up on the internet for a bunch of cringe lords to crack lame jokes at. I can't really shake that one.

the one that does me in is the video of a guy in china using a lathe and getting wrapped around it.

The machine doesn't care. It just spins things. Including you.

I had the same reaction to Narcos, you see twenty people get hosed down with a TEC-9 at a stoplight and you start to kind of expect it to happen to you.

To my surprise, I was sort of like "well, what the hell else am I gonna do?" and it was calming.

If there's one way I'm definitely not expecting to go, it's being hosed down with a tec-9 at traffic lights

More, maybe, hosed down with Dijon mayonnaise and trampled by ravenous goats

Essentially nobody under the age of 50 dies, especially in the western world: https://ourworldindata.org/grapher/number-of-deaths-by-age-group?stackMode=relative&country=OWID_WRL~European+Region+%28WHO%29

Having learned this lets me quickly resolve thoughts of "what if I die" or "what if this person who is important to me dies" because I can reasonably predict whether that death will happen soon.
