Dangerous Jobs For Girls

WHAT’S the most dangerous job in the world?

It’s not being a woman logger in Canada . . . but telling feminist Helen Milne that she’s not up to the job.

The series — which puts the fairer sex in jobs traditionally done by men — takes three girls, including Helen, to Canada.

She said: “If somebody said that I couldn’t do a job because I am a woman, I would go out of my way to prove them wrong.”

Cameras follow the women as they try to do a job which recently claimed 40 lives in one year.

Feller Gregg Simpson said: “I have to keep concentrating, and sometimes I whisper my children’s names just to remind me that I want to make it home.”
