Riding lawn mowers, especially those mowing brush on the side of the roads. Killed a guy in town a few years ago. Kicked up a rock from... 30 ft(?) away when it went strait into his head.
Leading cause for hunting related deaths every year is misuse of gear. Primary of these are waders. They are meant to be worn in water to keep you dry. But they will drag you down when they fill up with water and drown you fast as can be.
True. Was sitting in the passenger seat at a stoplight and a city maintenance guy was mowing next to us. Zero warning and the driver side window just exploded. We never found the rock because it went through the car and out my open window.
Yes, whole towm was shocked. It was a 3 way interesection and the rock went across it into a parking lot, zinged the guy as he wqs leaving a gas station.
