Is the red used to carry the new line?

Shi. Id do this in a heart beat even if stevey wonder tought me how 👍👍👍👍

Why do you wrap the red rubber sounding wire around the area where the smaller wires weren’t connected?

Is this somewhere in Germany?

Man I wish that I was that calm of a man to be able to get up there yet alone ride a bike on a cable.

Putting the smoking area up there on the tower seems a little mean.

After watching this, I bought me a Lineman's transmission Bike, and I've been riding the lines ever since. People just kind of look at me, as I peddle overhead. I'm trying to be the first to go from the East Coast to the WEst Coast.

Nice job

It just scares me to watch these kind of videos. Nevermind climbing it. Wow your brave

I would never climb that

Holy smokes… First video of your channel I‘ve watched and this was actually amazingly interesting to watch! 🙏 But what really stood out to me was your kind of „cynical“ or „sarcastic“ sentence -> „So Gott will“ 🥴🫣👍 I really can’t comprehend or understand how I would have felt if I would be in your shoes… or boots on a bike on a Transmission line 🤙 but I definitely would have screamed for sure! 🥴😂 Thx for the awesome video, I really enjoyed watching it 👏 All the best or „Viele Grüße“ from Germany 🇩🇪, Philipp 👋

Either this guy designed that whole contraption or he watched a hell of a lot of how to videos

Crazy nuts! 👊

I should have been a lineman. All that rigging is right up my alley. My estranged family was STUPID in trying to send me to college

How do I get this job? Yes, i am serious

I had a buddy who was a Lineman, worked High Towers across the desert. Yes, they are seriously beyond brave, no fear, just like this. I have climbed Masts on Aircraft Carriers, Tall Ships, lots of rigging. But after climbing a tower somewhere out in the Searchlight area, I was OK, but no more. I got to ride a dolly down to the reel, insane thrill. They do it every day, not for me.

Good job team

Did yall know God's Son Jesus Christ Died On The Cross and Rose Again From The Dead out of The Tomb on The 3rd Day. He Died for Everyones Sins even Mine. He Paid the Horrible Price we should have Paid. But He Paid it So We Would Have A Way into Heaven. if We Repent for Our Sins and Believe in Him and Serve Him and Obey Him. So I Encourage Those We Are Living In The Last Days I Encourage Anyone Not Saved Now Its the Time To Repent And Live For The Lord Before Its To Late and God's Final Judgment Comes. After you accept Jesus Christ into your heart and you Repent for Your Sins Your Name Gets Written Down in The Lamb's Book Of Life. and You Gotta Continue to Serve the Lord and Repent for Your Sins all the days of your life until Jesus comes back to call His Church home. Because No Ones Perfect we all Sin. but we need to Not Willfully Sin. and i will admit i have willfully sinned multiple times and I feel Guilty About it So I Repent we Were Made sinners because of Adam And Eve. but we dont need to Sin on Purpose. But We Sin All The Time Because we Humans get Angry and hurt people. and Are Hateful toward people when God commands us to Love Our Neighbors. and Pray for Our Enemies. there is all kinds of Sins. We Are Allowed to Be Frustrated at Peoples Actions. Without getting Angry and injuring People and breaking Stuff. Or Name Calling thats Wrong to. Heaven And Hell Are Real... and after Jesus Christ comes back and calls His Church home. Alot of people will be left behind because of being to caught up with the world and not believing in God. and other stuff And During that time the Anti Christ will reveal himself and Lie to People and Say Hes Jesus Christ. and he will try and Deceive the ones in Israel. and in turn Try and And Deceive the Entire World. and he will try to force People to Receive a Chip in their Right Hand or Foreheads.The Anti Christ hasn't Revealed Himself yet Though. and If you havent noticed they are trying to push for digital currency but we dont know who the Anti Christ Is. Only the ones left behind will know unless people make things right with GOD. Revelation 20:11 KJV And I saw a great white throne, and him that sat on it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away; and there was found no place for them. Revelation 20:12 KJV And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works. Revelation 20:13 KJV And the sea gave up the dead which were in it; and death and hell delivered up the dead which were in them: and they were judged every man according to their works. Revelation 20:14 KJV And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death. Revelation 20:15 KJV And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.

Where is this 🤔

What are the red twisty things for

The linemen are the coolest and funniest people to work with in the world.

Is that an aircraft marker you installed?

Closest I come to this type of work, is listening to Glen Campbell sing Wichita lineman. I did a halo jump at night tho!

Wete you born in the Alps? Or raised amongst mountain goats? The skill levels shown here are indicative of what is required to be hired to do this type of work, and I'm sure men like these are well compensated

Warum hängt ihr die Isolatorenketten nicht gleich mit Laufrollen und Überführungsleine auf? Da erspart man sich viel Sackgang .

Ist schon Wahnsinn eure Kletterausrüstung. Ich bin ja noch mit Hüftgurt hoch . Einer muss ja als Erster vorsteigen , um die Sicherungsleine zu befestigen ,die es damals nicht gab. Wir haben damals in meiner Zeit als Hochspannungfreileitungsmonteur in der damaligen DDR, 110kV- Leitungen mit der Arbeitsbühne oben abgespannt . 220kV und 380kV -Leitungen wurden mit Stahlseilen einreguliert, die mit Abspannklemmen am Leiterseil befestigt waren . Nach dem Einregulieren wurden die Leiterseile wieder abgelassen. Die Abspannketten wurden am Erdboden fertig gemacht und mit Montagewagen (Fahrstuhl) ,mit einem Zugmittel(Raupe) nach oben gezogen und in die Gelenke eingehangen. Kleine Nachregulage erfolgte über verstellbare Laschen .

What broke the wire?

sagging?

Von so einer guten Kletterausrüstung haben wir geträumt damals. Wir hatten einen Hüftgurt und sind ungesichert auf den Mast. Wir sind auch frei auf den Traversen hin und her gelaufen ,ohne Sicherung, ging gar nicht anders mit unserem Gurt.

Was sind das für Teile ,die du als erstes am Erdseil abmontierst? Ich war 12 Jahre (1978-1990) bei der Freileitungsmontage in der damaligen DDR beim Seilzug( Seilmontage). Solche Teile hatten wir nicht montiert.

I think I'd rather be on a helicopter full of snakes with Ray Charles as the pilot. 😮

This is far more dramatic than the work of lumberjacks but not nearly as dangerous. Once you have the physical strength to climb and have no fear of heights the job is far more labor intensive than dangerous. Although far more people would choose to be a lumberjack than to do this. The fear of heights is crippling to the majority of the population. The number of deaths in the field of lumberjacks far exceeds the death rate of linemen. But for sheer drama.....this one wins hands down.

No matter how many safety gizmos you hook up and use there is still only one cable that is holding everything! No thanks, I’ll stay on the ground or watch your video!

Goddamn this is slow and Ghey!!

After getting past the frayed cable you must’ve set a new record for that section on Strava :)

Broken line, better breakout the electrical tape. 😆😆😆😆 This is nerve wracking. Hats off to the guy that has to do this. JustSaying.

I am curious what broke it

what is the point of what your oing wrapping the the lines aroun a line i just ont get it

As a 1970’s lineman I salute you

No lanyard on the ratchet? 🤔 hmmmmmmm.

RESPECT!!

You got to be kidding me. Like every 10 ft, he has to remove that pink slinky toy and install it. Is this 2023 technology? If anything, it's more of a hazard to keep removing this thing and installing it.

never correctly wraped a line one uses to service! W.T.F.

What are you installing? I am guessing it’s for lightning?

I was scared just watching that, particularly when he was rewinding those strands. I was half expecting to start seeing the other strands separating. Scary stuff.

What happens if you need a shit?

Always the wind!!
