Dangerous Jobs

I came across some interesting information recently regarding risky occupations.  You would think that the most dangerous is being a police officer or a fireman.  But according to fatality statistics being a fisherman is by far the most dangerous.... 200 deaths per 100K.  Fireman have 4.4 deaths per 100K and police around 13.  Other professions with more on-the-job fatalities than cops and firemaen are airline pilots with 57 fatalities, loggers, roofers, sanitation workers and farmers.
