I hope it breaks into 7 billion tiny pieces and hits every single person in the world exactly between their eyes, leaving a small bruise.

This is getting progressively underwhelming.

I'm enjoying it, I think we should do this once a year. Two changes:
Polar orbit so no-one is safe
Do it lottery rollover style, so if it hits water you launch two next time, then four, and keep doubling until there's a hit.

To my knowledge, China is the only country that's killed people not involved with the space program.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gerhard_Zucker - 3 spectators killed. Not a country and I'm not sure if there was actual spaceflight.
Also a couple of US firemen dealing with wildfires caused by a launch, I don't know if they count as involved with the space program or not.
