Study Finds Smoking Not As Fatal As Getting Hit By Bus
Describing it as a phenomenal breakthrough in health sciences, a study released this week by the World Health Organization (WHO) has found that the health risks posed by smoking tobacco cigarettes are significantly lower than getting hit by a moving bus.
According to lead researcher, Dr. Mike Mark who released the shocking findings just this Tuesday claimed that while regular consumption of nicotine would definitely lead to increased chances of lung cancer - getting slammed into by a moving vehicle at approximately a speed as low as 55km/h proved to be certainly more fatal.
"Our research suggests that while smoking will kill you slowly, we believe at this time that being the victim of a vehicular homicide will undoubtedly lead to a swifter death," said Dr. Mark, brushing off smoking health hazards such as blackening of the lungs and gangrene on the feet as a "walk in the park."
“If you're an expectant mother and you think weaning off cigarettes is good for your child's sake, just wait until you see what favours getting smacked into by a bus during the peak hour rush will do for you.”
Backed by years of research that produced irrefutable empirical evidence, the study proves its findings by pointing out the casualty rate of victims involved in vehicular collisions were of a significantly lower amount than people who smoked on a regular basis in the months of January 2015 through May 2015.
