High Resolution Version (click to expand) COCOLEGEND Death by coconut ; Falling coconuts, according to urban legend, kill a few people a year. This legend gained momentum after the 2002 work of a noted expert on shark attacks was characterized as saying that falling coconuts kill 150 people each year worldwide. This statistic has often been contrasted with the number of shark-caused deaths per year, which is around five, and those of crocodiles, they kill around 200 human beings, and peaceful whales some say almost none per year.
