So mostly Europe, according to this logic?

But that's not entirely fair, since Africa to Europe may mean risking your life on a tiny boat, but Mexico to US is at least a land border.

Also UK gets it's share of life risking boats.

I guess Australia was the winner on this, until they took drastic measures to get people to stop risking their lives in tiny boats.

Crossing the Mexico US border illegally nowadays involves a multi-day hike through the desert and is extremely dangerous. I’m not sure if it’s as dangerous as crossing the Mediterranean on a smuggler boat, but many people do die making the trek from Mexico to the US.

Not saying it's safe. But it's not the worst.

Also one should keep in mind the danger people subject themselves merely to go the last hop from France to UK.

That's a long way to say that the upstream comment was reading too much into this metric.
