The deadliest job of the world


copyright Corey Arnold

The King Crab fishing in Alaska is probably the deadliest job in the world and it has a percentage of injured among the fishermen that grazes the 100%. It is, as well, one of the best paid jobs so that those courageous fishermen earn more than enough for them and their families for a whole year working for just a couple of months. The harvest takes place tipically in October and January when the weather conditions in Alaska are terrible. Each day of fishing is so dangerous and adventurous that Discovery Channel has produced a famous documentary serie called "Deadliest Catch" about the alaskan crab fishers.
