In terms of fatalities/distance traveled, the space shuttle, it covers hundreds of thousands of miles per year and has only had 7 fatalities

I think demon has to have it, seven fatalities and few injuries in ~40 years. For the distance traveled there's nothing safer, at least according to its history. Plenty of people have been killed when they were only being transported around the sun, certainly more than 7 in the past forty years.

SPACE TRAVEL!!!!!!!

Consider the billions of miles logged in orbit and such and the few fatalities that per mile it has to be the safest form of travel.

Starting with Yuri Gargain all the way through the recent shuttle launch.

GIVE ME MY MONEY!!!!!!!! ;) :) :)
