It seems that people might really need this sort of content. Recent data from an Economist/YouGov poll found that most Americans (68%) say they would feel unsafe if they lived in a large city.

About one-third (32%) say they would feel “not very safe”, and 36 percent say they would feel “not safe at all” if they lived in a place like New York City, Chicago, or Los Angeles.

Americans who live in rural areas (77%) and towns (72%) are particularly likely to say this.

However, even city-dwellers are uneasy about their well-being. Only 43 percent say they would feel safe as opposed to 58% who wouldn’t.

Interestingly, people might be good at coming to terms with these fears as Economist/YouGov also discovered that Americans are generally at ease in their own neighborhoods. About 9 in 10 (89%) people say they feel very safe or somewhat safe there.

If I had to add any survival tip, probably the main one would be to look where we’re going. In fact, falls are a major public health problem all over the world. Around 684,000 fatal falls occur each year, making it the second leading cause of unintentional injury death, after road traffic injuries.

Over 80% of fall-related fatalities occur in low- and middle-income countries, with regions of the Western Pacific and South East Asia accounting for 60% of these deaths. Globally, death rates are highest among adults over the age of 60 years.

And here’s another where TankTheSavant teaches how to throw a punch

In total, injuries (both unintentional and violence-related) take the lives of 4.4 million people around the world each year and make up nearly 8% of all deaths.

Injuries and violence place a massive toll on national economies, costing countries billions of US dollars each year in health care, lost productivity and law enforcement.

So being more careful actually benefits all of us, not just on an individual but on a societal level as well.
