I can't believe I've been so ignorant. The next time I see a shark I'm gonna give it a big hug!

[taoufik.jabbari]

This is the best top list ever made in youtube history, it's funky tho !

[asianforce]

Love these recent videos it feels like the early form of good.is when they did transparency every month or so.

[ihatecamber]

I wish this list was modified for places like america and uk.

[Unchainedmaple]

For the shark one, a good statistic to put on there is the millions of sharks that humans kill every year >:(

[Naytone]

That's like saying, "Jeff the Killer isn't real, so you shouldn't be afraid of him." When in reality, yes I should be afraid because it's freaking creepy.

[TheRizzo]

You forgot my Ex girlfriend on this list.

[Noast]

Not only can snails run faster than me, but they can kill me too? Oh no.

[DrewDPoole]

Since when are freshwater snails so deadly?

[KatyLee]

If sharks and crocodiles lived with humans like mosquitoes do, then we would probably get extinct immediately.

[Unchainedmaple]

Just because these animals kill humans, does not mean that humans should hunt them to the brink of extinction, ah the silly fearfulness of humans....

[sscottrell]

Im not scared of sharks, I live in Utah...

[beezee]

I'm scared of my shadow. It follows me everywhere I go. Even when I tell him to don't follow me.

But you've also got to consider the frequency of the species. You most likely see thousands of mosquitoes within your lifetime;whearas, a shark you might only see once or twice within your lifetime. I think for these statistics to be completely accurace the population and common-hood of the species must be accounted for.

[DuoXCity]

People? Mosquitos? Dogs? I don't have much choice, you can look out your window and see all three. But being Shark chow? Forget that, I'd rather just get shot!

[arka_arch]

its more likely that you will be killed by a shark on encounter, rather than a mosquito.so its not the statistics that proves deadliest, its the aggressive behavior of the animal . in that case, sharks, crocs, lions always stays top of the list where as dogs or wolves are must lower the list.

[danielsoto]

Still scared of sharks more than all of these combined

[roy-batty]

It's because you don't live among sharks. If we lived underwater you know how many people would mosquitoes kill per year? Zero. Humans would still be on second place, though.

[ms.vidsie]

Kind of scary how humans are more deadly than sharks

[JairoMorales]

yes, i'm still afraid of sharks!! i can just slap and kill a mosquito, try that with a shark!
