I don't think this counts

From The Telegraph:

Two teenaged British girls on a college field trip to South Africa were killed today when their safari bus overturned on a notorious mountain road in the northeast of the country.

A further 20 people on board were injured, three of them critically, and around a dozen were taken to hospital in the World Cup host city of Nelspruit. South Africa's big event kicks off tomorrow and even though the British group had been due to leave the country before then, the accident will serve as a reminder to World Cup visitors of the hazards of road travel in the country....


Had they been in South Africa to watch the football, then I'd chalk that up towards the consensus 11 - 100 violent deaths that the jury is predicting.

Going to be a lot of judgement calls in this.
