The 22 Most Dangerous Jobs

Many jobs require employees to put their well-being in danger, even to the point of risking their lives when they clock in.

    Many of the jobs on this list are inherently dangerous due to the possibilities of accidents and forces of nature. Firefighters however are running into what others are trying to get out of, and police are dealing with the evils that others avoid. Sure, as a trash collector you may get backed over buy your truck, but will you likely burn to death trying to help others, or will you get shot trying to catch a criminal??

      What's it matter? Either way a person died doing their jobs which is all just as important. Picture life without a garbage man! Think Salisbury is bad now. Rats and the plague is one thing to think about.
