When I was a sophomore in high school a kid a couple grades below me accidentally got kneed in the temple while playing a baseball game. He was covering 2nd base when the kid on first tried to steal 2nd. The throw was low so the kid went to hurdle him and his knee caught the kid in the side of the head. He was airlifted but passed away later that day. The baseball field is named after the kid who lost his life.

School mate of mine was probably 21 and playing adult league softball after work in Zachary. Collided with 2nd baseman's knee sliding. The shattered bones of his nose went into his brain and killed him instantly.

A friend had a wreck. She hit a small dip in the road and spun around hitting a tree. Her head got pinned between the head rest and the door jamb. Tree pressed jam in a couple of inches and crushed her skull.

A neighbor of my inlaws worked in a sawmill. He was killed when he went into the debarker to clear a jab of logs. He had locked the panel but a coworker unlocked it and turned debarker on. It was about 5 minutes before they realized he was in it. There was absolutely nothing left of him. Just a red stain on the logs.

Took care of old lady in the er who wound up dying in the ed. Her 20 something year old son came shortly after and when we broke him the news he went crazy, fled the hospital and wound up getting arrested for damage to property or something.
Later that same shift EMS brought the son in, now a quadriplegic. Apparently when he was being booked, with his hands cuffed behind his back, he ran and rammed his head into the wall and fractured his cervical spine.
Saw him again a few months later coming in from his nursing home, no family, in septic shock from his decubitus ulcers and catheter associated urinary tract infection. Died during that hospitalization.
