Ten Most Dangerous Jobs In The World! by teekrackz(m): 4:25pm On Dec 04, 2013 |
Although sitting at a computer all day could probably be considered one of the most dangerous jobs given that it completely destroys your cardiovascular and skeletal systems, it’s also a very boring way to shorten your life. The 10 most dangerous jobs in the world promise a much more satisfying demise. 10 Mechanics Between fumes, chemicals, and dangerous tools, mechanics working on everything from mini coopers to fighter jets are exposed to their fair share of hazardous situations. 9 Metal Crafters www.shutterstock.com Besides dealing with the obvious things like heat and metal, these workers typically experience negative health effects in the long term due to inhalation of various chemicals they are exposed to. 8 Search and Rescue Whether it’s the Coast Guard facing high seas or a mountain rescue team facing sub zero temperatures at night, it’s not hard to sea why this job would make the list. 7 Sanitation Workers www.theatlantic.com In many places it’s paid well for a reason. The potential exposure to all sorts of hazardous materials raises the danger level a few notches. 6 Land Mine Remover Although in some parts of the world this is the military’s job, there are many formerly war torn regions completely covered in left over land mines. With governments that could care less there is a job opening in the private market, and it’s not a fun one. 5 Personal Transport Drivers Although busses and trains have their own dangerous, driving rickshaws, tuk tuks, and taxis is in a whole different ball park. Besides the obvious dangers of the road there is the persistent danger of robbery or violence. Even in the United States, taxi drivers have one of the higher on-the-job mortality rates. 4 Miners There are few jobs that can destroy your health like mining. Besides the long term danger of the black lung there is the constant risk of cave ins or other potentially life stopping situations. 3 Bush Pilots Everybody knows that pilots have a dangerous job. Planes crash all the time right? Wrong. At least not the planes you’re probably thinking about. Large airlines are actually a very safe mode of transportation. If you were talking about bush pilots though, that’s another story. Facing extremely hostile weather and terrain, their job is anything but safe. 2 Deep Sea Fishermen www.classesandcareers.com Here’s a classic. It actually used to be the most dangerous job on most lists, especially Alaskan crab fisherman. Between high seas, long nights, freezing temperatures, and lots of moving parts there is almost nothing more dangerous. 1 Lumberjack http://fineartamerica.com/ Along with deep sea fishing, the logging industry is a long time source of workplace danger. Big trees, sharp saws, and hard hours are not a good mix. SOURCE: http://list25.com Comm |
