Not a "high" risk of being killed. Low-medium at best.


And not high paid? I was assuming by high paid he meant £80-100k+

They start on about 50k, I'd say that's fairly well paid.

25k you could be a binman or something, that's not high paid.

linesmen as in the electric people, fair risk of being electricuted if people the other end dont turn the power off but not sure how well paid it is.

tbh anything thats going to be high risk of death is goig to have a ashit load of training no company would employee someone to do a dangerous job and not train them.

few other ideas would be working with any kind of explosive i imaginewould be highly paid or chemical work but again would need alot of training i would of thought.

Doesn't working on the rigs require quite a bit of training?

I would not consider £25k high paid and certainly not worth being killed for

Offshore in somewhere like Nigeria working on a drilling rig. Risk of being killed working on a drilling rig

Being serious though it seems to be getting harder for people to get offshore without a trade/skill

From what I've heard offshore gas/oil rigs are bloody dangerous places?
