Video of some power line workers doing their thing. Wonder how much hazard pay they get! Heights and electricity. Two of my favorite things....(not!)

  • why the heck romantic song is being played??

  • @omairgeforce

    The name of this song is "Wichita Lineman". The lyrics go "I am a lineman for the county, and I drive the main road.......". I felt it was a very appropriate backdrop song for this video.

  • @Stemolandmar It would be if it weren't talking about telephone linemen...

  • @ChristianWilckenChr

    Okay, that's interesting indeed... =O

  • Something just doesn't look right in how they have to put the car over an insulator. I suppose the car is for some safety so the worker doesn't have to simply just crawl on the wires, but it just loses sense and worktime saved by it in that moment. It's just me however. Nice vid btw!

  • i do that work and it is gud work except for all da training and safety days

  • No hazard pay. This is what they do EVERYDAY! This is a good job. Try watching them climb the high power tension structures

  • They should use a harness. In case of fall the belt around the waist could break their back.

  • now this is what i call a dream job ...i'd love to do that :)))

  • No lines for attracting lightning?

  • If i was Goldman I would pay them more :(
