Women tend to live longer than men across the world.
According to the UN, in 2023, women’s global life expectancy was 75.9 years, compared to just 70.5 for men. That’s quite a gap, and if you’re wondering what might be behind it, we’ve found a pretty entertaining clue.
The aptly named subreddit Why Women Live Longer has all the proof you need—photo after photo of men doing things so jaw-droppingly reckless, you’ll question how they’ve made it this far.
Scroll down to see the chaos for yourself, and please, whatever you do, don’t try this at home. Or anywhere.
