found this article on a newpaper site about a recent Aussie study about leading underlying causes of death between 2011 and 2013.

Suicide leading cause between males and females aged 15-44. The only people I have personally known in the age bracket who have died all were lost to suicide. SCARY in so many ways.

Not shocked about Heart disease being the number one cause of death for aussie males from aged 44yrs onwards. What does shock me is in my opinion majority actually make life choices that actually increase the risk by. nutrition choices, smoking, poor excerise habits.
interested to know what others think.

Thanks for that I feel so much better that surfing is not the cause

What a load of bollocks.... natural death not mentioned

proves nothing.

I'm going for "accidental threats to breathing". I plan to suffocate between a huge pair of tits.

Devastating to see suicides as the no 1 in the best years of our lives
I struggle to understand how you can get depressed living in such a stunning country as australia

some pole dancers take up kiteing. others take matter into there own hands

It would be nice to see the 1-14 age group narrowed down as a toddler is not like a 8 year old is not like a teen. They are doing wildly different activities. Thus I feel that age group is very much a generalisation.

The main thing that stands out to me is that for late teens to early 20;s - ASSAULT.

Out of all the hundred ways to die way too early, 4th and 5th for chicks and blokes in that age group is being murdered basically. Bloody hell

That is a travesty - why the hell are we advertising about breast cancer for old chooks and depression "talk about it" for blokes, when I'd suggest the violence inflicted upon 15-24 year olds is far more compelling a case for fixing..????? Well that, and their suicide.

We need to save the young from themselves, not lecture middle aged types about their health that they should be well aware of now......

Mixed fortunes I guess. Lots of folk do it hard or have bad fortune and it clouds thier life.

Its just death without any flavours or preservatives. Bit boreing really but if you spoon a dash of honey on top it goes down pretty well.

As long as they are not bolt-ons, this sounds natural enough to me

"Accidental poisoning" is an unexpected feature. Or does it simply mean drugs?

as an uneducated guess id say you hit the nail on the head.
