From a scientific perspective, these are not "accidents", but the inevitable consequence of all the preceding inputs (causes & conditions). As in a complex billiard shot, every single thing preceding an event, causes the event - be it loud flatulence at a formal dinner, or a shooting rampage.
Regardless of quality, some people live their whole lives thinking and behaving more or less the same.
Some, only near the end of their lives stop to think and realize - "I've been a total ass my whole life. I can't believe people put up with me. How can I make up for being such a shit?"
A small proportion of people regularly examine their lives - meditate - and intentionally, consciously, continuously upgrade their thinking and behavior, becoming more and more like their role models. Only this last group is truly alive, awake, conscious, living intentionally, evolving, becoming the most they can be, during this brief and precious life.
