Women routinely outlive men for a variety of reasons, biological, social and lifestyle factors included. There may be one much more obvious factor however that often gets overlooked: men simply take more stupid risks.
This list, compiled by Bored Panda, is a vivid illustration of that. It is a collection of questionable intelligence, macho bravado and callous disregard for personal safety. And it is tragically funny! Scroll down below to check it out for yourself, and let us know what you think in the comments!

This is actually quite literal for many jobs and it means your family doesn't get your benefits. The rule is to ensure workers behave safely. A DOT contractor recently fired an employee upon his death because he died running across a busy interstate, which is a big nono. His family now doesn't get his benefits, which is just doubly tragic. If you work in a risky job, this isn't a joke.

They better move those other two cars. You know, when a body falls on a car, it could cause some damage.

That's not a long way to fall. He'll be able to crawl away with two broken legs and only very minor brain damage. Couple of beers and he'll shrug that s**t right off.

Looks like most of the "impact" is actually taken by the arms, and then it just "folds" down over the head.

In The City Of Osh, I Caught This
Nadja Lambacher 7 years ago
from the reddit post: They're standing outside of a bank. I guarantee they are the bank employees/sons or brothers of the bank employees that were asked to fix the light, and granted use of the office furniture to accomplish the task. The Kyrgyz approach to fixing things isn't so much employing "facilities/maintenance guys" as calling up Timur, Bakit, Amir, and Emil from down at the bazaar and offer them tea and cakes afterwards.
Adam Hart-Dyke 7 years ago
Hey, most of that bottom desk is on a flat surface, he'll be fine. Plus, if he falls he can just hang on to that super sturdy sign until they can construct a ladder from wet toilet paper.

I don't see what's not safe. He has a guard on the angle grinder, gloves, and something to protect his eyes from sparks.

It's maybe not SO bad, but I bet there is not much air circulation in that bucket. If he doesn't deplete the oxygen, at least he is going to get sweaty.

How To Shave With An Axe
BlackestDawn 7 years ago
Kinda impressed they made it that sharp. Looks more like a publicity stunt though.
Tim Douglass 7 years ago
I once shaved with a 14" meat slicing knife on a bet. An axe, however, shouldn't have a shaving sharp edge, it would be too fragile to actually use to chop wood and would actually become dull very quickly. A much more blunt angle is better.
Juan Castellucci 7 years ago
He also did a bikini shaving for himself afterwards. Those pictures on other web sites

yep gotta be a publicity stunt. Lumberjack man with clean fingernails? I think not!

While many of these are funny, some ilustrate why we should be happy for workplace safety laws abd regulations that fell over the top and bureaucratic sometimes.

yes, and people whine about rules, regulations and work place standards and government intervention--what they do not realize is the hundreds, probably thousands of lives these rules save

Okay, I wanted to stay away from this anxiety inducing list, but seeing all these comments made me write what I'm going to write. 1) Articles like this wrapped up im a title like that have been around long before today's mainstream of feminism. 2) The statistics, and many personal experiences of people who lost their grandfathers before their grandmothers, as well as the general belief that women are genetically equipped with better immunity and resistance to health problems, lead to believe that, in general, women live longer than men for scientific reasons. 3) Then someone decided to poke a bit of fun at these things by starting lists like these. Now you know the origins of this kind of humour, it's nothing new, and not coming exclusively from the hatred for or discrimination against men.
