What are the most intense professions that you can think of?

Dangerous, yes, but I don't know if they're all that intense.

@Invisible: True, there are others, but my dad has gotten flash, concussions, watched what would look like the end of the world in front of his eyes, seen people falling from poles and that shit happens every day. During tree work, it's not unlikely to have a big ass piece of wood fly at your face from the chipper or to fall from a tree, like my brother did and broke his back. Decompression diving is intense, but peaceful. I'd probably say that the special forces is probably the most intense though.

@Invisible: Actually now that you reminded me(thank you by the way). I have to put up 69kv line tomorrow. Waking up early. Pretty stupid of me

@Invisible: I'm talking about the ones living onboard ships and submarines.
Depending on where they are, the temperatures they are working at can be in excess of 110-115 F/ 45 C. All the time.

Navy work is on the other side of the spectrum; they freeze their asses off lol. I'll take the heat over the cold, personally!

@Invisible: Naaa man. I've been there. I'm talking from personal experience. The heat is unbearable !! It can go up to 50-54 C inside the engine room, in the middle east areas. I'd prefer the cold over the heat any day !

This is totally the case when you work with a bunch of idiots 😂

lol I can imagine. Sysadmins are always so burned out.
