My IFR instructor died a year or so after I completed the rating, went around with an unsecured turbo-hose, and didn't make it back to the runway before the engine and surrounds caught fire.

The gentleman that taught me the ins and outs of Corporate flying crashed into a ridge in Alaska delivering diesel to the drill sites...

and a few more, the circumstances of which I know less, but the outcome was the same.
