- I mounted my GoPro Camera to my hard hat at school to film us hanging 3 phase lines to dead end. This was a simulated work experience at our school. Enjoy!!

Love all the safety gear these days. I started climbing at 17. I'm 53. We free hand climbed with only 1 safety belt. Power telephone cable tv fiber. Done it all. Linemen are the backbone of America. Been called Linetrash all my life and proud of it.
Still Love Free Climbing... Probably because im on Production... lol
I know watch you mean.
I worked at Georgia Power in 1971
They've come a long was in saftey
To all the guys talking shit they are new to the trade , instead of just telling them what they did wrong explain to them why. I’m a Journeyman Lineman and we all made these same mistakes. The way you get better is to learn from them. Good job guys keep working and learning. Everyone in the comments must just be Gods gift to linework.
The304LINEMAN I just passed my assessment today and go to school in January I have to get my cdl class A learners first
Never post line work videos unless you know everything is one hundred percent flawless.... even if it's perfect, someone has something to say.... dont ever give up... grow from the comments... your goal is to be better and smarter than yourself every damn day..... and dont ever say something is not possible.... dudes used to set poles on the sides of mountains with mules....
Love the song love the job 👍🏻
Greetings from colleagues from Russia! We do one thing, though we live on opposite sides of the ocean. Proletarians of all countries unite!!!
You need to have someone teach you how to position yourself on the pole. You need to be inline with your work. All youre going to do is wreck your back in that position. Also don't use that type of grip on acsr wire, use a crescent grip. It's smooth and wont damage the wire strands. Best of luck in your career.
While I applaud the effort of these rookies lot of rookie mistakes. But we all probably made them at one time
Never use a bulldog grip on acsr.
it is apparent they are in training. 1) he did not put the cotter pin all the way in and it will vibrate out as he left it. 2) they do not know how to operate the hoists. 3) you do not use guy grips on conductors as they will cut into the aluminum. 4) all their tools are bright and shiny, i.e. no use yet. i weary watching them!
one tail up two tails down also using a bulldog grip on ACSR
Respect from Russia!
Hey fellow Mountaineer. About to start my training too.
Instead of just using rope you could have used a sling to put on the back of the cross arm, it would have been a lot easier and less time consuming.
Screw driver test... Nice drum beat
I like those lineman boots.

Not bad for some rookies keep it up you'll get there , as many men on the ground that wire would've be hung with the hand line, good job for the experience level
American Mastiff I’m currently in this class on this campus and they don’t teach us to do this they guys on the pole most likely didn’t listen to the instructors
American Mastiff both of the instructors have a combined experience of over 71 years
Thats my goal to be come a lineman. Do you have any more videos coming?
Fix that cotter pin!
2020 👍
Didn’t put first cotter key all the way In
Put the shoe on the bell first, then the shoe, put the hoist on the shoe, the grip on the other end of hoist then jack it up
David Brown business end out!!!!!!
Hows life now? Im attending nlc
one tail up and two tails down also a bulldog grip on a car
Been up on pole over 100' over interstate 70 the thing you see doing line work as a line man
Welcome to the club bro.. Done that here in st louis a couple times... what part of 70 you working around?>?
I would beat my grunt for hooking up handline like that
Nice im Bangladesh
dude there's an eye on that shoe for a reason.. wtf you doing with your handlin
e?
so much wrong with this
Sloppy work - 3/10. Also, you lose points and credibility for putting Nickleback in here.
They’re apprentices. If its ever ok for your work to be sloppy, I’d say as an apprentice, it’s ok.
Who ever taught you guys sucks what in the world lol
Gay song
no u gay
Climb it free hand not hitch hicking.
they can't its a policy and its a cynic lok
Could left that music out
