It's a way to find new respect to the people we see working for any of the power companies.

This is a bit more extreme as a couple of guys inspect high power voltage lines.

They're wearing special suits and they can only access them from helicopters.  These guys wear special Faraday suits and they crawl along the power lines high above the ground.

Fascinating and frightening.
