Ax Men is an American reality television series that premiered on March 9, 2008 on History. The program follows the work of several logging crews in the second-growth forests of Northwestern Oregon, Washington and Montana and the rivers of Louisiana and Florida. The show highlights the dangers encountered by the loggers. Following in the footsteps of other shows from Original Productions, like Deadliest Catch and Ice Road Truckers, the series is considered part of a recent "real-men-in-danger" television programming trend.
J.M. Browning Logging is owned by Jay Browning, a 34-year veteran of the logging industry. His left hand was torn off in a logging accident, but he now wears a prosthesis that allows him to operate a chainsaw. Jay runs his company with a "hire the best in the business and use the best equipment" philosophy. His sons Jesse and Jared work for him; Jesse is scheduled to take over the company one day. Jay Browning started his logging company in 1985. His company has been headquartered in Astoria in Clatsop County ever since.
I cannot be what you want me to
Why do you make me feel this way that I do
Release me from this life I feel, I can no longer see
What is real
You're not a part of me
You pulled yourself away
You've been to blind to see
That I was here to stay
You tried to take this life away from me
You tried to take away everything that I had
Why do you always have to run me down
I know I'm worth so much more then you would know
Place my soul into existence
Let me feel that I'm alive
I am stronger then before
(I am stronger, I am stronger!)
I will arise again once more
This is all that I can do
Live my life to please you
Must I repeat what I say
How many times must I repeat myself
