3Boys:

If flying is extremely dangerous, then what do we make of the other activities?

If I read this correctly, even in the small study population of 63,000 people in Singapore, the daily use of incense caused an additional 302 deaths per year, compared to non-incense use. That's equivalent to 1.5 MH crash every year, but due to incense use.

I don't see that we propose to ban the burning of incense, or label it an 'extremely dangerous' activity, do we?
Unfortunately, because we are humans, we are subjected to cognitive biases and logical fallacies. These biases often lead us to make questionable decisions as well as to reach erroneous conclusions.

Air crashes (and fear of air crashes) are the best example of negativity bias and probability neglect at work.

Airlines flying to Europe better avoid political countries...those are war torn countries...

Flying is extremely dangerous now, in Europe and Middle East, because may be caught in cross fire, anytime.

Latest news is ISIS already infiltrated into Malaysia (our neighbour).
Government caught them, & today news that militants amassed bombs, to bomb a brewery in Malaysia.

Singapore is surrounded by Malaysia, Indonesia, Brunei.
Need to monitor Syria situation, closely.

Malaysia, Indonesia officials fear ISIS influence expand, infiltrate deeper, into South East Asia regional countries.

Read that Malaysia recovered 62 complete bodies.

Can't find the rest

Expected because how to locate to pick up small body parts or fragments.
Maybe only more complete or bigger parts would be recovered.

Exposed in the summer heat for so long before they were sent to train carriages...faster rate of decomposition...and when bodies drop from such high altitudes, they will be broken.
Fighting going on where investigators are searching for bodies...this kind of war torn countries really scary.

Some say there are still about 80 bodies out in the fields not collected yet ....


You mean skeletons. I can't imagine bodies not having decomposed in the open field after 3 weeks. :sad:

I feel it should be remains instead. I find skeletons kinda 'cold'

And under hot glaring sun, decompose even faster rate.
That's why those journalists reported mentioned about smell of death, as they walked in the fields.
Maybe rotting dead bodies gave out foul smell, in the open field.
