While Dumb Ways to Die has won more creative awards than almost any other campaign to emerge from Asia Pacific, it has not been able to replicate that success in the coveted effectiveness categories. WaymarkBut speaking to Mumbrella Waymark was more cautious about attributing any decreases in near misses or injuries directly to the campaign.“When it comes to near misses, the reporting has increased quite significantly. You can’t use that data really because we’ve implemented new reporting hotlines and incentives to encourage drivers and station staff to report near misses, so we’re collecting a lot more data then we have ever before,” she said.“We’re taking lots of steps to reduce injuries and deaths, Dumb Ways to Die is only one component of it. Source: Metro: Dumb Ways to Die case study submitted to The Communications CouncilOn the campaign’s results Waymark told Mumbrella: “Passenger serious injuries have gone from 31 in 2012 to 13 in 2013 and 5 for the first half of 2014.“The difficulty with this is it is a behaviour change campaign and how do you measure if you have in fact averted a death?“In terms of injuries, that is the consequence of someone taking a risk or had an accident, those numbers have definitely gone down quite significantly over that period.”. Source: Transport Safety VictoryAccording to numbers on the Transport Safety Victoria website, which include employees, passengers, public and trespassers, in the first quarter of 2012 three people were killed around trains while 12 were seriously injured.Quarter two, directly before the campaign’s launch, saw four people killed and seven seriously injured while in quarter four, directly after the launch of the campaign, two people died and 14 were seriously injured.In 2013 those numbers halved with a five people killed across the year, while 26 were seriously injured. And in the first half of 2014, through to May 18, four people were killed and eight were seriously injured.
Set fire to your hair.
Poke a stick at a grizzly bear.
Eat medicine, that's out of date,
Use your private parts as piranha bait.
Dumb ways to die!
So many dumb ways to die!
Dumb ways to die-ie-ie!
So many dumb ways to die!
Get your toast out with a fork.
Use your own electrical work.
Teach yourself how to fly.
Eat a 2-week-old, unrefrigerated pie.
Dumb ways to die!
So many dumb ways to die!
Dumb ways to die-ie-ie!
So many dumb ways to die!
Invite a psycho killer inside.
Scratch a drug dealer's brand new ride.
Take your helmet off, in outer space.
Use your clothes dryer as a hiding place.
Dumb ways to die!
So many dumb ways to die!
Dumb ways to die-ie-ie!
So many dumb ways to die!
Keep a rattlesnake as a pet.
Sell both your kidneys on the internet.
Eat a tube, of superglue.
'I wonder. What's this red button do?' *BOOM!*
Dumb ways to die!
So many dumb ways to die!
Dumb ways to die-ie-ie!
(Small pause)
So many dumb ways to die!
Dress up like a moose during hunting season,
Disturb a nest of wasps for no good reason.
Stand on the edge of a train station platform.
Drive around the boom-gates at a level crossing.
Run across the tracks between platforms.
It may not rhyme but it's quite possibly:
The dumbest ways to die!
The dumbest ways to die!
The dumbest ways to die-ie-ie-ie!
(Longer pause)
So many dumb - So many dumb ways to die!
Spoken:
Be safe around trains.
A message from Metro.
Poke a stick at a grizzly bear.
Eat medicine, that's out of date,
Use your private parts as piranha bait.
