That's not what it shows at all. It shows that nobody died by being "bitten or crushed by other reptile" in the US in 2002. Aside from the quibble that being constricted is being suffocated, not "crushed", people certainly have been constricted to death in the past, and it has even happened in the US.

LOL. Odds can be tricky to follow. It's like this example : Most people think that winning the lotery is a great thing, well i think it's a dangerous thing. Think of it!
You have 50 times more chances of meeting death today than winning the lotery. (car accidents, heart failure, etc). So, if you WIN it, that means you should be dead already...on 50 ocasions. Wich, in turn, means you have been escaping death with success for 50 consecutive times.
Well, what are the odds of being successfull with that AGAIN next time?

It has even happened in Canada, in Brampton in the early 90's.
