I wonder if any of this is caused by the higher testosterone level lumberjacks have? Perhaps it raises the inherent bravado level that judgment is impaired? [1]

I wonder if any of this is caused by the higher testosterone level lumberjacks have? Perhaps it raises the inherent bravado level that judgment is impaired? [1] I am a bit shocked that pilots are ranked so high on the fatality list. Perhaps its helicopter and similar listed? Is that only professional pilots? anecdotal, many years ago parents had a large number of pines removed from their property. a young man was killed when he ran under a falling tree. he was running to get his hat he left on the stump of a previous tree, no one could understand why he did it, they all stand in a clear area when a tree comes down. I am not sure what was more surprising, the OSHA guy's "seen it before" attitude or the loggers parents "we always knew it would happen".
