It's not how many deaths per year, it's how each of those deaths happened.

See, when you get cut in the water, a shark will do anything to eat you. It is instinct that drives the beast. They'll do that dun-NUN-dun-NUN thing with the fin, then bite at you. When you get to shore, you've left blood everywhere and he can smell you. So he follows you onto the beach. NO WHERE is safe. You run to the hospital, and who's the attending practicioner? Dr. A Sharky and he smiles at you with a toothy grin as he tries to gas you. But you dodge the gas, and run (limp) home, and your wife says she's pregnant... with another man's baby. And 9 months later, you think you're in the clear, when BAM! The shark baby bursts out of your wife's cavity, and devours your head entirely in one bite.

You are never safe.

And yet, it's only a matter of time until I, too, die to shark bite.

Tornados killed way more than 60 people this year unfortunately. But I think Tornados do get a week on Discovery from time to time.
