That cutout was loose as hell, tighten up ol son, lineman like it tight

My brother died on duty 2yrs ago

Rest In Peace Brother! Your memory will live on forever in the brotherhood!

Starting to look at leaving trucking for being an apprentice lineman

so sorry for the lose of our lineman brother , l'am a 40 yr.of service as a linesman, and this is a real in your life fact of linesman life,

I was a union worker and I left and went to college. Their “safety training” is a beyond a joke. I couldn’t trust the demographic around me with my life. Unfortunate, but there are too many cowboys out there who are chasing money and don’t care.

So this is what was an accident that it appears a cardinal mistake in an absolutely Unforgiving task occurred. In my job field is very unforgiving and can easily be lethal to self and others around due to the chemistry issue goes airborne.

I am so sorry for your loss ma’am, also you gentlemen…. I can only express my true respect and love for you all, I am from the uk Manchester, and work in some scary places, but coming across this tragedy makes me stop and think…. Such a painful loss for a life changing change in practice xxxx❤

My son is a lineman. Thank you all for everything you do. You risk your lives for us and your away from your families to help us. God Bless You All. Your our Hero’s. ❤❤❤

I loved my 38 years of being a lineman

My god. I dont want to disparage the deceased, but what was he thinking????? I work wirh 3 phase 480 and never work on it until im positive its de energized. Dont even let someone else tell you it is. Confirm it yourself.

I am doing Bangladeshi lineman job, I want to do this job abroad in any country, what can I do sir

I don't think linemen get enough credit for the dangers of their occupation. Their service and sacrifice is very much appreciated by many. May God bless them and keep them safe. Thank You.

Cry baby there is the one that told him that line was dead.

God Bless our first responders, best in the world

Try working in a manhole with 26 kv in your back. No where to go when it blows.

I've been a lineman for life . We all all a part of a BROTHER HOOD . Love to all . Be SAFE !!!

Can a lineman be overweight?

It’s not a job for everyone. Rewarding both mentally and monetarily but the best part is knowing that your doing a job that makes life easier for family ,friends and neighbors. If you have second thoughts about what is required in time ,effort and dedication then it not for you. Oh and a strong body helps too!

Just like a farmer...get prideful...take shortcuts...and the results are the same

Rip

Getting to comfortable with what you are doing and taking short cuts is a bad habit to get in.

This video is a fine teaching aid. I encourage anyone motivated to study then teach safety to others. It will also make YOU a safer person. This applies to more than the jobsite. I became a Motorcycle Safety Instructor because my bro who wasn't trained (not an option in those days) crashed and became paraplegic due to incorrectly turning a corner at speed. Safety is for home too as many skilled folks get injured off the job taking shortcuts they would not take on the worksite. Go slow and you'll get done quicker. Slow is smooth, smooth is safe and smooth is fast. Look out for others and your mind will be right.

Why didn't the load dispatchers cut service to that line?

Damn that suck but thank you

Besafe...

Safety is work practices, not line hoses eels, awareness,set up, looking before diving into it...

Like those secondary gloves... Family first, never get that time back... Lineman work goes on...

Doing more work with less people...

Who says have to answer the phone...

I’m a junior in high school right now and I can’t wait to put my foot in this field of work, sounds truly rewarding.

Electric power is not dangerous at all if an individual is competent, now if someone is incompetent that could be deathly mistake... I worked in so many different dangerous situation and all ways come home... You can have all the safety policy and rules in the world but if someone is not competent and trained in right ways its useless.... Anytime you have human being working in dangerous situation things could go wrong i don't care how much you talk safety policy and rules and regulations... Its very important to have well trained professional supervisors and crew formens on the job making sure everyone is talking, following safety rules regulations, and everyone is competent... I once worked for chemical company and individual become supervisor not by knowledge but by friendship with top management and hired others with no knowledge but friendship, they can read from book but have no clue about the job or chemicals that being used and the dangers, that why accident happens....

Damn it blew his hand off and grafted the metal into his legs 😮. New found respect for the workers when they are trying to fix our power.

Who picked the thumbnail?

10 years as a lineman in Costa Rica! Best job in the world!

This is complacency, and it still does happen….definitely he did this before and got away with it. I feel sorry for his widow and children. It didn’t have to go this way. I did the job and taught the job. It always amazed me with all the different layers of safety protection that is there people still chose to jump through them. I’ve seen and worked with some cowboys. I always reminded my trainees….electricity service is a very critical part of our way of life …..but it’s not life threatening until you make it that way!

Merica baby

My website is a factory

Complacency. A terrible accident. RIP Jeremy. 🙏 ♥

Last month my son a lineman for 10 years was electrocuted in the head. He was up in the bucket working on a dangerous pole. He’s always so safe and it just took one slight accident and his head came into contact with 7200 volts. He’s alive. He had a hole blown out the top of his head, the flash went down his left torso and arm and out his fingers. He went unconscious for a bit then his ground man got him down and shook him and shook him. He opened his eyes! This happened Sept. 8th and he’s had two surgeries so far. His head wound was just worked on, his fingers had to be grafted. We were told by drs he really should not be alive. I almost lost my baby boy. But I didn’t and I’m so grateful. So sorry for this family.

My brother is a journeyman lineman. My heart goes out to everyone that have lost loved ones.

We need more linemen so we can all be at home more

I’ve been wanting to be a lineman since I was 7. I wouldn’t even look at it like it’s a job, more like a hobby that I always want to do.

How much did she get paid to agree with the company shitting on her dead husband?

I wish every company across America and the world had to show this video to each employee on their first day orientation. It would save so many lives!

I worked as commercial/industrial electrian for 15 years I will tell u this I got knocked on my rear it only took once we sent find out what was causing power problems with elevator in a bank tower well I enter elevator equipment room took out y clamp meter which is rated for 600 amps clamped on 1 the phases ro get a reading when I did I still day what went wrong because fire shot out meter and next thing I know I sit on my back ksie up against the wall that was hardest ever Bern here before well boss come in find what happened UT took me min respond and when I got up walked outside it was 19 degrees that I still felt like I was roasting inside now boss later told me the circuit was phased in correctly but I found a new respect that day for high voltage the only different I had done that may have kept getting hit I always had kept a pair lineman 1 kv gloves in my tool bag but gloves had wore hole in finger tip so I didn't put them on that day I don't work on electricity a y more due injury sustained later on due fall off ladder and shattering of my wrist but I will tell u safety is definitely no matter industry but especially with live wire and assumption makes ass u and me and increase chances if getting hurt that was sad qhat to gentle man and may he rest in peace but was avoidable if he only done his due diligence and took proper precautions great video

Simple ,safety violation = job loss . There is no room for error ,electricity does not forgive!

They teach this as Electrical Theory 400 yeas for a reason.. I buried a few electricians that forgot that rule...And I almost been killed twice myself...All because I didn't look around to see what was around me...Not just what I was working on...
