OT Heights and an apprentice with balls of steel
Yes, another post about heights:-)
We needed to run a cable down a cable tray. I'll guess at 6.5m high and 30m long We had the 3 cherry pickers and and all the lads needed to to the job and the the apprentice said "I might as well just walk down the cable tray whilst you feed me the cable, it will be much quicker". And he did. And it was much quicker. He also sang and danced to "Do the loco-motion" while walking the cable in. I am taking the camera tomorrow. I bet he cannot do it with the 95mm 4 core SWA we also need to lay in the tray. He only pulled down a single 95mm earth cable down today. I was crapping myself just standing on the grider next to the cable tray whilst feeding him the cable. The HGV driver that was parked below us called him "mad". -- Adam |
