From CNN:

2004: The 10 most dangerous jobs by fatality rate are:

Rank	Occupation	Death rate/100,000	Total deaths
1	Logging workers	92.4	85
2	Aircraft pilots	92.4	109
3	Fishers and fishing workers	86.4	38
4	Structural iron and steel workers	47.0	31
5	Refuse and recyclable material collectors	43.2	35
6	Farmers and ranchers	37.5	307
7	Roofers	34.9	94
8	Electrical power line installers/repairers	30.0	36
9	Driver/sales workers and truck drivers	27.6	905
10	Taxi drivers and chauffeurs	24.2	67

I had an aunt who's second husband was a logger. Her first husband was also a logger, who had gotten himself killed by a felled tree. I also had a friend who's father had been killed by a felled tree. I know that job is dangerous.

But stew on this. A pilot is ranked as the #2 most dangerous?
A logger getting killed is one thing. Unless there's some freak accident taking out several people by one tree, he's the only one dead. A Pilot on the other hand, usually isn't flying solo.

Sorta makes you think, doesn't it?
