coconut death

Cecil recently pronounced the risk of death by coconut :smack: to be low, with only one confirmed instance .

Almost immediately, disaster strikes!

By implication, she was also in the cradle at the time.

This sets an interesting precedent for other unlikely forms of demise. Can we expect to spontaneously combust, vanish in the Bermuda Triangle, etc., just because Cecil has pooh-poohed the idea?

Did you mean to post this in Comments on Cecil’s Columns by any chance?
