Осли чи авіакатастрофи: порівняння без даних | Donkeys or plane crashes: a comparison without data

Do donkeys really kill more people each year than plane crashes? This is a popular claim, but there is no reliable global count of deaths directly caused by donkeys, so the numbers cannot be compared. Aviation accidents, by contrast, are systematically recorded by ICAO and other organizations. The saying likely originated as an old quip about air travel safety. Without a definition of “plane crashes” and comparable data, the claim is unsupported.
