You sure that aviation # is in the right category? Pretty sure >600 people were in planes just on 9/11

Did you look at this post for more than two seconds? OP provides sources and the source lists aviation accidents. Do you think 9/11 falls under the category of "an accident"?

To answer your question, no, I'm not digging into his sources to get to the bottom of it. Kinda defeats the point of a having a chart, let alone one that says accidents "AND DISASTERS".

Damn, you really chose being a prick over clicking a single link. Took me less than thirty seconds to "dig" into the source to answer your dumb ass question.

u/iiSpook is correct about why 9/11 doesn't count as a disaster according to the source's categorization. Per the top of the source page:

>Purposeful disasters, such as terrorist attacks, are omitted; those events can be found at List of battles and other violent events by death toll.
