Question 5 of 24
How much of a daredevil are you? (1 = bubble-wrapped · 10 = 'hold my drink')
"Hold my drink, watch this"
💀 A grim little fact
Here's the stat that surprises people: for everyone aged 1 to 44, the leading cause of death isn't cancer or heart disease — it's unintentional injuries, aka accidents (CDC). For the younger end, that's mostly car crashes; a bit later, it tilts toward poisoning and overdose.
In other words: in your prime, the thing most likely to end you isn't a disease patiently building up. It's a Tuesday, a bad decision, and gravity.
🔮 Myth vs. Morty
Myth: "It won't happen to me." This is the single most common last thought in recorded history. The Darwin Awards exist precisely because confidence is not a safety feature. Adrenaline feels like invincibility; it is, chemically, just your body preparing to run from something it already thinks might kill you.
Morty loves a thrill-seeker. They keep his numbers up.
