hey all

part of my job as a lineman requires me to be able to save a coworker on top of a pole if they are electrocuted.

we use a dummy that is made of canvas and filled with shredded tire chips. it weighs about 225 pounds.

the following link is how not to do it!

Hahaha I'm sorry hahahah I have to laugh. Hope the guy didn't get hurt to bad.

I saw that about a year ago. Still funny. Work computer doesn't have very good speakers and can't trun them up. Didn't know the guys name was Goober. Makes it even more funny.

What a way to get your 15 minutes of fame!
