20% of people say they’ve gotten hurt putting up a Christmas tree

Be careful when you’re putting up the tree this year!  20% of people say they’ve hurt themselves putting up a Christmas tree, according to a new survey.  In the same survey last year, only 9% said they’d been hurt.

That could mean one of two things…

1.  They asked a much more injury-prone sample of people this year…

2.  Tons of people have gotten hurt this year!

The correct answer is probably somewhere in the middle.

One fun statistic: Men are almost three times more likely to get hurt putting up the tree than women.
