In the search for truth, honesty and justice I have undertaken extensive research into how many people have died by having a ball kicked at their head. After trawling the internet and reading hundreds of articles written by scientist and journalist alike I have found that not one person has ever been reported as dead after a football hit him on the head. A few people have died after being shot in the head, one man had his head chopped off by his wife and quite carelessly thousands of people from the Home Counties lost their heads last May but no one, (that's zero, zilch nothing, nought, 0) has ever died when a ball hit them on the head BUT that does not mean it couldn't have happened to van rapist. I think he is very unfortunate, can you imagine the lasting fame that would have brought. He would have been the first. So unlucky, poor man, when fame was waiting he blew it.
