I am afraid you are wrong. We have had too such falls in the last 4 year where both died. We have has a fall last month were a pole failed that the worker was on and he lived it all depends on the landing.
I wish this had the original audio. It made me laugh more than the video. His friend on the ground yells "Come on Goo!" i guess the guys name is Goo? haha!
True.. which sucks cause no training as a repairman will tel you to harness over something steady... if he harnessed himself over that strand clamp, he would have been ok... his face must be messed, ive seen this happen to a lot of guys.
how doesnt he fall? yea he has a belt on but thats not slowing him down at all. i rather fall while free climbing you can at least get away from the pole and role or something, looks like he fell on his face
what happen to the sound? I saw this clip before with sound, it was hilarious!! Some guy was yelling "Just Cut It" & the electrician cut off the wrong string..
pole steps are ancient and illegal in Canada as far as I nknow your supposed to pull them whern you climb an old pole. Ive heard of a guy getting ones in the head when he cut is pole brace.
shows why climbing a pole with a basic harness & spurs is stupid , try a better harness,ladder & pole steps , u cant go wrong!! why risk your life , these methods wouldnt be accepted in australia
Australia has 25 million people - USA has 275 million. Your super safe methods may seem logical, but with the amount of line work that needs to be done in the states - it has to be fast and efficient. if there is a storm and thousands of people are out, you have to get them back up fast. You guys don't have half the amount of storm activity and outages down under, so you wouldn't understand American Linemen.
If you want to play it safe all the time, then line work is not for you.
With the power companies increasing the voltages due to the ever increasing demand by the modern-day population (AC's, huge kitchen's, etc.), the risk factor is increasing as well. We are now rubber gloving 19,900 volts. And with OSHA slotting Linemen in as the most dangerous job in America now, coupled with the retiring babyboomers - there is a shortage of linemen. It's a job not many are willing to do and it doesn't increase with the population count in a perfect ratio
We just watched this video in training. If you can hear this vid with out the music, you can hear the guys on the ground rushing him. He should've kept his cool and roped that dummy off to the crossbar! Pretty funny stuff. He'll never do that again!!!!
its so these linemen can get the right training for helping each other out when shit hits the fan. with out these guys you wouldnt have power so think about what your saying.
i would....i have.....theres a video somewhere on here of me making a big bike jump and landing right on my chest, it knocked the wind out of me and i fractured my wrist but i luaghed when i got my breath back....i didnt post the video my friends did.
I would imagine that the electric company requires its employees to be able to rescue their colleagues should the need arise. That means cutting them free from their safety harnesses and having some means of lowering them down. And of course they have to practice it as well. This guy needs more practice!
