Tetanus is very, very rare here in central/western Europe.

That said, if you get it - you will die in about 10-20% of the cases. It doesnt matter how healthy you are. 
Its highly unlikely but the vaccine is safe. Especially if you are traveling a lot, take it. 

You will get the vaccine anyway as a post-exposure prevention if you go to the hospital after an injury.
