Nah, it's safe if your smart about it. I put the turkey in the fryer
pot, then fill with water to a level that I know will be safe, then
mark it. Remove turkey and water, then put in oil to that mark.

And one important part many forget is to stay within the reccomended
size limits (turkey) for your setup. With most setups you should stay
under 13 or so pounds, and do not use the standup holder, use the
basket. No doubt, there is a chance of disaster, that's why I do not
drink and fry The new indoor electric ones are probably safer than
the outdoor propane fueled ones.

Why do you suggest the basket instead of the stand up holder?
