Are there really 6 million ways to die?

I mean, I suppose the answer is infinite right? Or maybe not. It depends on the boundries you set. For example you could just say heart attack -- or you might say that dying of a heart attack during sex is not the same as dying of a heart attack during a bank robbery -- in that case the number is definitely infinite.b, 21b, 21But if you try to remove most of the variables the 6 million seems awfully high. Heart Failure, Lung Failure, Kidney Failure... I think if you remove the variables then the number of things that actually cause the body to die is relatively small.b, 21b, 21But anyways, I wondered for a long time where the number 6 million comes from. I wonder if dude read that somewhere and repeated it? Or did he just pull it out of his ass.
