    Was watching the show and I enjoy it. But in this episode they were trying to teach a woman how to use a saw. The woman was afraid of the saw. You'd think they would show someone woth a fear of a saw the safest way to use one..nope. Later in the same episode they were felling a tree and it fell backwards pinching the saw and hanging up in another tree.
    Are they doing this for they camera or are they really that dangerous?

    I’d bet some of both. Everything seems to be overly dramatic on the tv.

    I think they (the actors) are really that dangerous.

    That is exactly what I say when I watch Homestead Rescue or Alaska: The Last Frontier.
    Wouldn't you think one of the ppe manufacturers would jump on that for advertising?

    Unfortunately, very few folks wear PPE.
