Not Sure I Like These Odds
Odds are 1:36 that you will be killed by some sort of accident. There's a 1:81 chance that the accident will be while in a car, and 1:202 [questionable, krb] that it'll be by a firearm.

Finally, there's a 1:130498 chance that you'll suffocate yourself with a plastic bag. These, compliments of researchers at Princeton University.
