The origin of the stat is murky, much like the water sharks swim in.
. However, there is no mention of vending machine attacks. International Shark Attack File did not respond to Slate’s request for comment.So, I set out on my own to find data on vending machine deaths. Most searches brought me back to that 1995 CPSC report. In that year, the commission “ received reports of at least two consumers who died and one who was severely injured after the soda machines they were rocking fell on them,” explains the report, which looks only at instances in the US.
But looking at those two numbers alone, it seems that, even if there are a slightly different number of deaths each year, the vending machine stat could be basically true.But there’s still one big question: the vending machine data is older than I am. Are vending machines still killing people at that rate? I reached out to the CPSC to see if there were any updated statistics.
