Live gas line service disconnect (3 of 3)

Ok, first he cut the branch line off. You can see the pipe start to leak when there is a small puff of white. It'll really leaking when the dirt is being blown away. Notice how his tools are all laid out, like a surgeon's. Once he knocks the bottom half of the saddle off, it only takes one hit from his hammer to knock the tap off. Under 35psi, the gas really was roaring. The hole is quickly plugged with a tapered wooden plug. After I stopped recording, he slid a clamp over the plug, making the patch permanent.

Thats funny as hell. I have replace the majority of down town Boulder Colorado services, NEVER had that much STUPID b/s on. PPE, give me a brake, all that is is a acc. waiting to happen, cant event move it shit came down. Just another way for companiesat to clear themselves if things go wrong, its that simple. The line we work on are full of naptilene, still wouldnt want all that crap on, been in my shares of fires, and things that have made the news.
