The Dangerous Task Of Repairing High Voltage Power Lines

I knew that the act of repairing high voltage power lines while the juice is still flowing is a dangerous act indeed, but I didn’t know the whole operation would play out like an action movie, complete with daring helicopter piloting and awesome uniforms!

It was likewise surprising to discover that these guys use little to no tools when repairing the lines, and they do most of the work with their hands! It really makes you appreciate the dangerous work that goes in to keeping the electricity on tap for us all.

Balls of steel!!
I'm not sure if this is of benefit here.

Were you not listening ? the electricity goes AROUND the Balls of Steel not THROUGH them. The frank and beans will stay golden.
That's what I mean, there's no point in having any special balls. It all goes around you, so they might as well be made of jello.
