Four in five such deaths involved males, with the peak age range for deaths being 20-24 years, though fatal cases of ecstasy poisoning were more likely to occur across the 16-24 age band, compared with fatal poisonings on speed (which were more common in the 25-44 age band).
All but three of the ecstasy-linked deaths were known or believed to have involved ecstasy ­p; there was only one reported fatality involving MDEA (1992), and two reported cases involving MDA (1992 and 1993).
Indeed, the statistical risk of death from the use of ecstasy or from attending raves is also lower than the risks associated with many socially acceptable activities and lifestyles ­p; including sports and leisure activities like skiing, mountain climbing, and fairground rides.

Out of the deaths in 2005, 491 were accidents while 557 were caused by diseases related to occupation.
"While we suspect that most of the deaths due to asbestos trace back to exposure prior to the implementation and enforcement of stricter controls, due to the long latency periods of asbestos-related diseases, it is likely that the number of work-related deaths has not yet peaked," the report states.
