The only palms I am truly wary of are coconut palms. Many years ago when I was young and dumb I was lying on my stomach by a pool at the Hilton in Trinidad. The pool had a few very tall coconut palm trees around it. A huge heavy coconut fell about two feet from my head. I felt stupid but very lucky!
