It is on the same website. Not always the same year.

Working pilots: https://www.bls.gov/opub/mlr/cwc/flying-too-high-workers-fatalities-in-the-aeronautics-field.pdf

80.5 per 100k/ year

Police: https://www.bls.gov/iif/factsheets/fatal-occupational-injuries-police-2018.htm

13.7 per 100k/year

No matter what year you find stats for, pilots outweigh police for death risk. Prove me wrong.

    ok, fair. it seems i may have underestimated the number of the bush pilots, but i still insist that the presentation is confusing and it presents "specific subset of the pilots" as "pilots".
