    All three have Australia in common. (Look up the lowest scoring breakdancer at the Olympics)

    I am not sure where RBION gets their information about kangaroos killing people in Australia, but this site claims there has only been two people killed by kangaroos in the last 100 years.

    Only around 6 people are killed by sharks each year, worldwide. Deadliest non-human mammal to people is rabid dogs, killing 25,000 per year.

    She has just been declared the Number 1 female break dancer by some break dancing committee. Australian breaker Rachael Gunn, the Olympian widely known as B-Girl Raygun who went viral after her performance at the Paris Games, is now ranked the No. 1 breaker in the world.The 37-year-old claimed the top spot in the latest women’s rankings released by the World DanceSport Federation (WDSF) – the governing body of breaking and other dance sports.None of the Olympic winners were ranked.

    Maybe if they were land sharks … No!

    Land sharks are lawyers. More people are killed by kangaroos than their lawyers.

    Maybe break dancing won’t be back because it was highly ridiculed and they’ll try something else in 2028

    I’m more interested in the number of fatalities in crocodile attacks. That’s something I can really sink my teeth into. ;-p

    I find this one hard to swallow(no pun intended) because the Great Barrier Reef is prime “Great White” territory

    The first panel heavily implies that her performance caused breakdancing to be dropped from the Olympics. It was never going to appear in the LA Olympics. That said, breakdancing is just as valid an event as anything else.

    Hmm maybe it’s more about when: There are sites that confirm that from 2001-2017 Kanga Kills 37 vs Sharks 27
