Are these supposed to be true facts or made up facts because I though heart disease and cancer were among the highest?

You just have to take the weird "facts" found online and replace facts with opinions most of the time. Like a duck's quack doesn't echo, it's been proven that it does in fact echo, it just registers as part of the original quack.

It's possible that they are not the leading cause in 3rd world countries.

For Isis' sake....I'll go back to the topic:
100 people choke on ballpoint pens every year.
I can't even figure out how someone would do that.
