Also observe how ghost attacks, vampire snacks and demonic possession go unrepresented in this list. (Bear attacks has its own list. Lightning strikes are a low statistic)
Also curiously absent, death by meteorite — meteorites have punched holes in engine blocks but so far have missed humans — and murder / assassination by hacked IoT device. Intravenous drug dispensors that are connected to the internet are often hooked up with dangerous medications like insulin or morphene, but to date, no one has exploited their poor security to kill someone.

There was a hippo right between Upper and Lower Egypt. He united them but paid the ultimate price in doing so.
The country united to fight the hippos after his death
tbf, it seems like his relationship with animals was really hit or miss:
Diodorus Siculus recorded a story of Menes related by the priests of the crocodile god Sobek at Crocodilopolis, in which the pharaoh Menes, attacked by his own dogs while out hunting fled across Lake Moeris on the back of a crocodile and, in thanks, founded the city of Crocodilopolis.
Tbf, hippos are mean mfs.
Reads like a dwarf fortress log
Wow the "exploding chewing gum" one was a trip. What a way to go.
are there hippos in Korea?
