Its been occasionally known for people to get paper cuts around the office, those feckers hurt!

I've never stubbed a toe or anything but obviously Im extremely cautious.

So basically no! My job is boring and predictable

Everyones missed the point of the original question

Its not about how dangerous but how dangeroos

Roo's (kangaroo's) can be pretty dangerous, they box pretty well, bloomin big feet to kick you hard and will make a mess of your bike if you hit one

Not many in the UK, except on Dartmoor I think

People die every year in my line of work which is construction. Even more get injured.

I have been offered a job offshore which is supposed to be even more dangerous... and I am currently going through the final process of another job which is argueably pretty dangerous.

Construction and construction offshore must rank pretty highly though.

yes they do

what I cannot understand is the state of some of these big sites in london, how they don't kill anyone is by luck not judgement.

I used to be based on site and was a first aider along side my main work but my new job is much more detached..

Mine is highly dangerous.

I work with numpties that have no effin clue what they are doing. I also work with carcogenic(sp?) materials, work in a room filled with Ozone, operate a razor sharp guilotine, and i may even get a paper cut.
