@gzreel: The technician switching on this high-voltage transformer has a colleague standing directly behind him, hot stick in hand, ready to break contact if the current takes hold. At this voltage, AC electricity causes tetanic contraction. Your grip locks. You can't let go. Someone else has to pull you out. And electrocution isn't even the biggest threat. Arc flash - a plasma burst reaching 35,000°F - can kill or maim everyone within feet in a fraction of a second. The arc-rated suits, Class 0 gloves, and two-man rule aren't optional. They're what separates a close call from a fatality. These technicians work inches from death to power the cities, industries, and homes we depend on every day. They may earn $80,000-$120,000+ a year. No salary balances this risk. Love Technology?

It’s 2026 and we haven’t found a way to make this safer?

Za Warudo :

So everyone wants to see a robot get destroyed

Maxx :

so how does the world expect robots to be able to do trades like build literal house and do plumbing and stuff and do any construction stuff build electrical and stuff

Bartol :

Shouldn’t there be a machine that attaches to this and rotates it itself

YoungPops :

Nah. Keep the job. Keep your money. Let A.I. do this

Van.. :

What’s this kind of work pay?

👻👻👻🎃🎃SCARY PEPEVR🎃🎃💀💀 :

I feel like having an Estop next to the second guy would help just incase something happens and he drops the hook.
