Spanish train risk vs skydiving and bed falls

skydiving gets the reputation, but a long-distance ride across Spain isn't far off it. one such trip works out to about 2.6 micromorts, meaning a 1-in-a-million shot at not making it, while a jump sits around 3.5. zoom out to a full year per person and Spanish trains land at 2.3 deaths per million, with tumbling out of bed at 2.4. 114 people died on Spanish trains this year. figures via INE, Eurostat, CNMC and USPA.
