The Deadliest Sports on Earth: Ranked

The Risk of Drowning

Drowning kills roughly 3,500 people per year. Around two in every 100,000 people will drown at some point (not necessarily resulting in death). We recommend that you swim near a lifeguard at all times, and if you're feeling up to doing something a bit more dangerous, try to bring a buddy with you.
