re: I don’t care how many people you know. Nobody has 56 dead friends.

If you know a lot of people and you're really old then you probably know at least 56 people that have died

You are creating a strawman.

The real argument is....

How many wealthy famous people know 56 others that died of suicide/murder/plane crashes

The experiment is very easy. You could just look at other politicians, past presidents, movie stars, etc. Can you connect that many murders/suicides/plane crashes to someone else?

I'm a middle class person, and I know of one person who committed suicide, no one that has been murdered, and no one that has died in a plane crash.
