Maybe I should not post this as I just saw this on Twitter and cannot independently corroborate this. This could be fake news or an alternate fact but it looks fun.

Pop/Folk Culture in Ghanaian Coffins
The Guardian ran an article showing some pictures of Ghanaian coffins. They are something that we would never see in Canada. The people of Ghana celebrate death in a much different way of honouring their dead than we do. Take a look at some of very interesting coffins by reading The Guardian article by clicking here. Seth Dixon had an interesting take on this, see below.

Causes of Untimely Death
I saw a tweet from Bill Gates that led me to this Wired article on deaths by various causes.
You can read the Wired article by clicking here. There are some very interesting interactive visualization tools to compare this data. This might work well as a starting point in a health class or science class. Note Suicide is a large block than Violence. Look how large Road Accidents are, which I imagine include drinking and driving which really are not accidents.
