Please add Geni profiles to this project when cause of death was a falling object (e.g., rebar, tree branch, piano ...)

Be careful where you stand because falling objects can come out of nowhere. Not only are you at risk of being struck by a falling object but you also have to worry about inanimate objects being thrown at you. The death toll is somewhere between 30 to 50 people per year that die from being struck by an object that was either thrown at them or fell on them.
Maybe your irrational fear of getting crushed by a piano isn't so irrational after all. This type of death is pretty hard to avoid because falling objects are sort of a surprise. We would tell you to wear some sort of protective gear but even hockey pads with a motorcycle helmet wouldn't do you any good if a piano does suddenly fall from the sky.
