This anon doesn't know what they're talking about. It definitely happens although I have no idea how frequently. Where I am from loggers hardly ever use hand crews anymore its all done in processors. Other logging dangers include highly defective/damaged trees with unpredictable wood inside (known as widowmakers) and loggers with less experience (or when felling a tree with a lot of lean) there is a chance to barber chair the tree, which means some the wood fiber is still attached in the wrong pace, ie. not on the hingewood but near the outside of the tree. The causes wood to spring back at full force, often enough to strike and kill the sawyer.

Kills more than the chainsaws do themselves.

there are at least 2 'widowmakers' in the logging industry, so yea i assume they earned their name

Of course it is. Why would you think this has changed?
