3-day bender in Prague with the boys: 1 in 50,000 chance it kills you

~20 micromorts. Like 4 scuba dives, or walking 1,100 km. Best guess.

Mortmeter: Worth it. Memories you'll half remember forever.

Assuming: Heavy drinking, late nights, no driving.

How we got this: Binge drinking multiplies accident risk several times over a normal day. Three heavy days plus travel lands in the tens, driven by falls and traffic.

What gets you: Falls and traffic while drunk, Alcohol poisoning, E-scooters at 3am.

Cheaper version: No e-scooters after midnight and nobody walks home alone: saves maybe 40%.

Sources and method: how Mortmeter prices things, and the Atlas of measured risks.

More priced risks: Sharing a bottle of Flor de Pingus, Riding Polyppen at Bakken in Denmark, Eating 2 whole pizzas, Drinking a bottle of red wine, Winter bathing in the Øresund, A week of off-piste skiing, Getting LASIK eye surgery, Texting while driving on the motorway.
