I mean, I’m sure there’s a statistic that someone can look up but as many people as are on the planet, I feel like there would always be someone within shouting distance if not closer. I guess it really depends on how fast the earth is moving and what the frame of reference is.
You’re underestimating the distances and speeds involved. The earth is traveling at 67,000 mph around the sun and the sun is traveling 514,000 mph around the galactic core and takes 225 million years to do one orbit. Even if two people died within a second of each other, they’d be 100+ miles away from each other.
Earth orbits the sun. The sun orbits the super cluster in the middle of the galaxy. The galaxy is flying off into space being pulled on by other galaxies. The earth will never occupy the same expect space if you factor in all the movements. If you were holding the hand of your loved one and the two of you died withing a thenth of a second apart you would not be able to see them by the time difference at those speeds.
Though its all relative how you want to measure and what you want to measure.
according to this site, there are 166k desths per day; which works out to about 7k deaths per hour or a little under 120 deaths per minute (around 2 deaths per second).
even if you get paired with somebody who dies in the same quadrant as you, there’s a good chance that that person will be an annoying prick.
so the maths bears out. the commenter to whom you replied is correct in saying that–if the ghost-no-gravity theory is true–you would be better off dying in a mini-mass-massacre event.

Here is a sad face…
