But now I remember two other thoughts. What else is scary? Maybe not that scary but why this huge building? Isn't it too big? Like wasted material? And the necessary maintenance?
What about human ego as an answer? :D
. 15k volts rushing through the lines. When we climb up, or work next to a rail, the power at that rail is cut off. One time we observed a electrical short. We were in standby on the ceiling and bam! I saw this electric arc and a big bang echoed through the halls. I was sweating my ass off. But all good. Everybody was fine. The earth connection was too early.
Oh yes, definitely with such high voltage. I heard a story (actually yesterday) from the hospital in which my wife works, of a worker who received a 12 kV shock. A nurse was close to the place where this happened, and she saved his life by providing him cardiopulmonary resuscitation. He had a chance of 2% to survive (maybe it was 0.2%; I am not sure anymore) and he survived. But this was close.
Totally agree with your answer. The human ego seems very dominant.
And Wow! This guy survived!?! Amazing and lucky! Knowledge (and experience) is invaluable.
I'm proud to say that I've just passed my refresher first aid. I can help my fellows in need.
I should pass mine... On the list... since 2012 :D
That's progress 😆
That's a positive way to see it ;)
