This is a helicopter-supported live-line transmission maintenance, one of the most specialized and technically demanding operations in modern aviation.

Shit some people are just amazing at their jobs. Of course this pilot and his crew are walking a very fine line but they probably do this on a daily basis. Just amazing

This is absolutely ridiculous! We put so much money into infrastructure over the years. High transmission lines should be in a reinforced concrete tunnel under ground. Regardless of what property they run through. 25 ft deep would clear anything where it’s actually needed.

One rogue wind gust out of those mountains in the background, and it lights out for that entire crew, and the lights will go out for whatever towns those lines serve. Like a scene out of "Final Destination".
