A lumberjack is the name given to a job in which a professional cuts down trees. The lumberjack may cut them into logs or transport them to a sawmill.
Statistically, it's one of the riskiest jobs when it comes to personal injury. Felling axes and other sharp objects can cause varying degrees of injury, even death.
This profession is widely practiced in North America, and is very often carried out by men (although it's not impossible for women to do it too).
Finally, the emblematic outfit of lumberjacks is the Flannel.
