Have you ever wondered what some of the weirdest and most unusual jobs in the world are? Well, you’re not alone. There are people out there who make a living doing things that most of us would never imagine. Here are some of the strangest jobs in the world that’ll make you appreciate your own job more.
Professional cuddler
If you love hugs and snuggles, this might be the job for you. Professional cuddlers offer their services to people who need some warmth and comfort. They charge by the hour and follow strict rules of conduct and hygiene. Some of the benefits of cuddling include reducing stress, improving mood, and boosting immunity.
Snake milker
If you’re not afraid of venomous snakes, you might want to consider becoming a snake milker. Snake milkers extract venom from snakes and sell it to laboratories and pharmaceutical companies. The venom is used to make antivenom, medicine, and for research purposes. Snake milkers need to have a lot of skill and courage to handle these dangerous creatures.
Water slide tester
If you love water parks and thrill rides, you might enjoy being a water slide tester. Water slide testers travel around the world and test different water slides for safety, speed, and fun. They rate the slides based on various criteria and give feedback to the manufacturers and operators. Water slide testers get to have a lot of fun and see new places, but they also face some risks and challenges.
Odour judge
If you have a strong sense of smell and a strong stomach, you might be qualified to be an odour judge. Odour judges smell different products and body parts and rate them on a scale of intensity and pleasantness. They help companies test the effectiveness of their products, such as deodorants, mouthwashes, and perfumes. Odour judges have to endure some unpleasant smells and undergo regular nasal check-ups.
Golf ball diver
If you’re a fan of golf and diving, you might like being a golf ball diver. Golf ball divers retrieve lost golf balls from water hazards and ponds on golf courses. They sell the balls back to the golfers or the course owners. Golf ball divers can make a good income, but they also face some dangers, such as alligators, snakes, and murky water. (Yikes!)
These are just some of the strangest jobs in the world that you might not have heard of. There are so many more out there that’ll surprise you and make you wonder how people do them. (Hey, fact is often stranger than fiction!)
