Die repairman at a forge.
I work in the Axle department now. I call it industrial mountain climbing.
I crawl down 10-12 feet into the Upsetter using the tooling as footfalls, everything is covered in oil and water. You have to contort yourself to get down to where the axles are made.
You're squeezed in there surrounded by tooling that's about 200F, steam coming off everything. Normally you spend 10 minutes down there refurbishing the tooling, but you might spend 45 minutes down there if you're having problems getting a broken bolt out.
Great pay though.
Hopefully nobody hits the "on" button when you are down there

Hopefully he uses the lock out/tag out safety method for working on machinery.
