As many children under ten die from accidental falling TVs and Furniture as from guns.
Thanks to Steve Brown for this link.
New numbers show a record number of people were killed by falling televisions, furniture, and appliances in 2011.
The report from the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission shows 41 people were killed in 2011, an increase from 31 in 2010, and 27 in 2009.
The data shows that the majority of those killed were under the age of nine. . . .

This is really an unaccepted accident by furniture. I can't hear any kind of accident like that.So we should be more conscious about use of our outdoor furniture which is help us to reduce those kind of accident.
