@Sworksepic12 all three of those wires are actually one phase, its called "bundling conductors." There for all three wires are the same potential, so that is why there is no arc or short. Its more efficient to use 3 conductors that size than one conductor 3 times that size.

Question - look at the linesman walking on the 3 phases. Now - look at the ring that is touching all 3 phases then connected to his body, how in the hell is that ring not creating a phase to phase short? Anyone???

@KottonmouthSoldiers As far as I know, Faraday cage can only protect you from high frequency voltage.. Correct me if I'm wrong, anybody :)

stunning!! bows to the inventor!

how easier would be to use an rc heli :P

Wow, that's actually pretty cool and it looks kinda stable, but definitely the ability to transfer over the towers makes this realistic, plus using the center of gravity to aid in acrobatics shows that some one has been using "nonlinear thinking".

So that's where GlaDOS went after Portal 2.

@ArtOfKillingTY The angles between the wheel flanges are clearly designed to pinch onto the cables on which they are riding. This ensures grip without resorting to rubber. Which might slip in wet conditions.

isnt the problem of stopping the electricity solved by the use of faraday cage suits? forgive me, im no expert.
that looks awesome! but how is it powered? by the lines themselvs?

@seterry The box that acts as a counterbalance (at 2:03) contains the battery that powers the Expliner.
