Um, the chart title in big bold type spells "
Accident Rates by Airplane Type". Most of the items you list above (except midair collisions)
are not considered accidents by ICAO definition, and therefore excluded. For statistical purposes, midair collisions are commonly included as separate events.
Boeing has been publishing variants of this data since 1959 (and as I mentioned, in the present form for at least 20 years). I wasn't aware that Instagram pre-dated the moon landing.
