Ouch. Shit luck. By 'accident' do you mean a car crash or some non-traffic kind of accident?
I think we have to do another one of those, although, while I'm happy to tag along as a non-maths geek, I'd feel a fraud for organising one. Perhaps Object could be persuaded to come out of retirement briefly.
Oliver Schick-
He was into making things, small scale engineering and electronics. As part of the hobby/lifestyle he lived communally in a converted warehouse.
He had gone to sleep and left a tin of strong glue open. Overnight he asphyxiated.
The details are a little second hand but it was recorded as mis-adventure.
And as it happens I'm off to the history of computing museum today.

I was fully signed up to that ride but ended up in hospital all night just prior looking after a friend who'd fell over and bashed his head a metal kick plate at the base of a door. It looked a lot worse than it was and after some mopping up and a couple of stitches he was alright to go home. Though when the doctor looking to discharge him asked if there were some sensible adults at home, he being in early 20's and suffering a significant head injury, he replied, "yeah I live with a few people, though they're mostly drug dealers. But nice ones!"
Tragically he passed away in an accident a year or so later.
CSB?
