Approximately 1.78 to 1.8 people die every second worldwide, according to global statistics
. This translates to about 107 deaths per minute and roughly 56 million deaths per year
. Some sources round this to nearly 2 deaths per second, reflecting slight variations in data collection and estimation methods
. Additionally, statistical modeling suggests that there is about a 15% chance that no one dies in a given second globally, meaning that while on average nearly two people die every second, there are occasional seconds with zero deaths
. In summary:
- About 1.78 to 1.8 deaths per second globally
- Around 107 deaths per minute
- Approximately 56 million deaths annually
- Roughly 15% probability of zero deaths in any given second worldwide
