Seemingly Harmless Things that Can Cause Serious Injury and Death

In 1995, a number of soda vending machine manufacturers agreed to label their machines with a warning that they could cause death or serious injury if rocked or tilted. It's pretty rare, but not unheard of: Between 1978 and 1995, there were at least 37 known cases of people dying, and 113 injuries, due to vending machines falling over onto them. Stay safe: Don't rock or tilt or jiggle the vending machine.
