These statistics are very interesting to me, since I have pretty bad anxiety. Some days, the only way I get to work is by reminding myself that the odds of me getting mugged, hit by a car, caught in a terrorist attack, etc., are exceedingly low.
Honestly, I've done a course in Stats, read a few books on 'pop statistics', and done the introductory first few chapters of several texts on it when I want to try and refresh my memory on it, and I still can't do this stuff quickly on the fly- Especially when you start getting into permutations vs. combinations (If you don't know, don't worry about it.)
To get these numbers, I just filtered Statscan down to deaths per hundred thousand, all cause, then filtered again by my age and all age windows up to 90, had to re-adjust to get a bit less data (less detail in the possible causes), and then did the conversion for 'Probability to odds'.
There are a ton of assumptions here, of course. And it doesn't account for the massive skews that are possibly in the data- for example, all homicide in my country is likely localized to a few given population centers- and in there, even probably a few neighbourhoods. So they're rolled into my stats as well- even though I don't live anywhere near there, for example.
So this really is sort of a 'worst case scenario'- I'm also not really average as far as behaviours go (drive less than my peers, exercise, eat mostly slow-carb/cyclical keto, bike to work every day), so I can imagine that there's some protection involved there.
Now the depressing thing is looking at the actuarial tables for the parents and older loved ones in your life and realizing that the number of years they're likely to have left is much, much smaller than you'd imagine. Especially when you're seeing them like 4x per year at holidays for 1-2 days at a time, so the actual times you'll see them on this planet is likely under 100 more visits.
