    Most accidents happen in the home, so home duties would be the most dangerous occupation, I think.

    Still better odds than being a Pope, Pedro.
    If you don't like trucks, stop buying stuff.

    The job isn't dangerous, not when they all die of old age, that happens to most of us, even when you're not on the job, because more people die of old age when not working

    Farming often gets top marks (Statistically) for dangerous occupations, but I think Pedro's on the money here, if you're talking pure danger.

    Let's compare......................



    Danger rating out of 10.......1


    Danger rating out of 10.......10+

    The most dangerous job is actually being a housewife. 100 die from assault annually and 55,000 reported assaults by partners occur each year.

    And no, not technically a job - but ask your better half how she sees it The most dangerous occupation?

    Do they get paid for that?
    You couldn't pay me enough.
