In the whole world? About 56 million per year. I think that’s just under 2 each second, but please check that calculation for me.

In the UK it is roughly 1 per minute – the same as the number born 🙂 Check this interesting site out about how people die: http://www.guardian.co.uk/news/datablog/2011/jan/14/mortality-statistics-causes-death-england-wales-2009
