Whoring, I guess.
Logging was pretty dangerous too but there ain't so much of that in Canada anymore, so the casualties are down...yeah, I'd have to go, per capita, king crab fishing as the most dangerous. Pretty icy chop up there, I hear, so if you f*** up, you die. |

| POTUS is as dangerous as it gets, though the sample size is too small to say for certain. |
