Does anyone have a link to current statistics of death/injury from various household items.

rifles, handguns, lawnmowers, chainsaws, roller skates, bicycles, toasters, etc?

And not from a pro firearm souce.  Something unbiased.

I think heart attacks are the #1 household killer.  Both my grandparents died from them in their own house.

One time I was viciously attacked by my vcr, and had to shoot it to death with my HK USP .40 at close range.
