Yeah i thought about listing them out, but it was late and I was lazy. How you determine "most dangerous" can vary too. That list goes by overall deaths in a year and deaths per 100k. Other ways to measure that would be interesting are by average # of significant injuries per worker over their career span, insurance/workers comp claims, or permanent injuries.

The Invention of Lying does it better.
I think Johnny Maestro had one of the best voices of the 60's. I found a video that combines computer animation with one of my favorite songs of his. P.S. I don't know if this is from some MMORPG or was generated from scratch.

Lucy, Hit by a car and having her back legs paralyzed, climbed the Mt Washington auto road in her wheelchair.
The road starts at about 1000 ft elevation and climbs to about 6200 ft. Has sound. Good doggie.
