The Electric Guy

There are many dangerous jobs in India. I ran across one occupation this past weekend that just must be electrifying...a man fixing electrical lines. There was a guy up at the top of the pole standing on a board that was tied around the pole. Then there a group of 4 men on each side of him pulling on a yellow rope that was keeping the pole upright while this guy was on the pole. One rope actually went across the road. Of course there were no men waving flags warning of "Men at Work, Slow Down", remember this is India!

Notice the rope going diagonally over the road

These were one of the groups of men holding the rope tight
