In May 2002, Santiago Cañizares, one of the best soccer goalkeepers in the world at that time, and the undisputed number one of the Spanish national team, dropped a bottle of aftershave on the floor, and a rather large shard of glass penetrated his flesh, thus severing a tendon in his right foot andforcing the player to missthe upcoming World Cup.

One of my favorite phrases is that the only difference between being medicine and being poison is the dosage.
Water. Obviously, we need it to survive. But it will kill us if we drink too much, drink the wrong kind, or fall into a bunch of it.
Garage doors. Mess with the springs and they will f**k you up
In fact, almost any thing that surrounds us can become dangerous. You can hammer nails, or you can hit someone with a hammer, stairs help us go up and down, but we also often fall from them, and water, although it is a vital element for us - have you even looked at the statistics on drownings around the world?If not, voila -according to the World Health Organization data, back in 2019, an estimated 236,000 people died from drowning all over the world, making drowning a major public health problem worldwide. In other words, danger can lie in wait for us almost everywhere.

CLEANING SUPPLIES. so so so many people blindly mix cleaning chemicals. you can create so much deadly other chemicals its insane.
Your bathroom. Many people get hurt badly in slip in the bathroom. Oddly enough, we tend to use materials that are rather slick when wet when building them too
“In the old days it was said that every line of the military regulations was written in blood - because the cost of a mistake is incredibly high, and this is probably true. That is why, no matter how self-evident this or that point in the safety instructions may seem, it is still better to read everything and remember. So that later, based on our example, new paragraphs of these instructions will not be drawn up…" Valery summarizes.
Ink cap mushrooms are edible foragable mushrooms, but if consumed with alcohol they become toxic.One example of why using foraging apps to identify a yes or no answer as to whether something is edible isn’t a great idea.
Pressure cookers. I’ve always been scared of pressure cookers.
Stairs
By and large, it is not the things and phenomena themselves that are dangerous - it is human stupidity and inattention that make them so. And disregard for the rules. It may work one time and look damn cool, a second time, a third time… but there will come another time when the luck runs out, and it’s good if the person gets away with just an injury.
Hairspray and any spray that can be used as an impromptu flamethrower in general.Water and bathroom floors. More people are killed or injured in accidents in bathrooms than most people realize.Any corner. The corner of a table or the corner of a cabinet door. Never leave those doors open. It takes one wrong step to lose an eye.Bleach. It’s poisonous, it can blind you if it gets in your eyes, and it makes lots of smoke if mixed with brake fluid.
Using any gym machine..
Salt. Sprinkle it on your food and you’re fine, but consume 10 teaspoons at once and you could die.
eating a whole cherry. This is because cherry pits contain the glycoside amidalin, which, when it enters the stomach, under the influence of the previous juice, forms a strong poison, hydrocyanic acid. 50 cherry pits can kill a person, but 15 is enough for a child! 10 - will cause poisoning.
A car.
Visine.
Electricity
Microwave ovens.Place it on the counter and use it to heat food, perfectly safe.Take the magnetron out of it to do fractal wood burning, high probability of death
