Soccer is the deadliest sport when it comes to lightning. Of
the sports activities, soccer saw the greatest number of
deaths with 12 (golf had eight).

Ahh, statistics,
How do we account for deaths per man hour performing the activity?
Seems to be US stats, I would think there is a lot more total
(man hours performing the activity) for golf than soccer. so soccer
would seem to be much more dangerous than the 12 vs 8 shows.
