Any horseback ride carries a small but definite risk of death.
<snort> Not doin' it for cosmetic reasons, though!
And of course, we risk death every time we get into a car, or go to the bank, or fly in an airplane. My point is not to eliminate the risk of death, but to reduce risking death *foolishly.* And -- what Julia said! <grin>

Heck, if you're a woman, sex carries a small but definite risk of death -- women die from complications of pregnancy or childbirth, not as often as they used to, but still occasionally, even in the countries with the best medicine....

most acutely aware lately of the risk to the child that comes from being born too early -- 1 death, 2 babies in NICU I know of personally :(
