Fantastic video brilliant work 🎉

Ma! The Northern Lights are glowing right above the house!

The arcing started because the lines were "galloping" (movement from wind causing the lines to move at their physical resonate frequency, which increases the amount of movement), causing them to touch and strike the arcs. That's why you'll often see devices that look like a pair of metal cucumbers tied to each wire, those are weights to help stop the galloping from happening.

It’s all fun and games until you look beside you and you see a giant flash very close to you: that happened to me today😢

Why on earth would such smart engineers run so many wires on top of each other????

Whoever engineered this line screwed up. There should have been a pole where it crossed with all the lines attached. It doesn't take a genius. Bravo 8 year college kid you did well.

Because the phases are shifted or just relevant to each other nothing happens! Just short circuit

3 phase high voltage man! It always gets me

Well thats not good

Dude really said I’m getting the best video guys while the power line is exploding

someone sample this and make it a bass

Tzzzap goes the hydro wires

What.😂 Can't stop's arcing and lose power

Three phase lines man they like to jump to each other!

These lines should be all three phases

Sounds like a guitar string

RIP whoever had something plugged in when that happened

Who in their right mind would make these power lines?

Birds don't care if it's arcing or not, birds sit on power lines

It has a nice low bass

Well, at least it’s satisfying

if this isn't menacing then i don't know what it is

Zzz zap Zzz zap Zzz zap Zzz zap Zip zap Zip zap Zip zap Zip zap zap zap zap zap zap zap zap zap goes the hydro wires

Is that in Mississauga?

No real lineman would pull these wires . You get the print changed and make it safe I think this could be outside the USA possibly

Don’t worry its just lain in the wired again

Hope you don’t have you iMac plugged in 😅

Wooow

@Venjent

I Wish it blew up. Am I a menace to society?

Its very stupid the you can put the pole in the middle where they cross over

power lines in oklahoma

I always wonder why the lines are stacked like this in cities like Toronto

It's so cool my friend loves power line I don't know why

Who made the wires so crookedly, then they intersect passing through each other? In Russia, they are crossed by raising all the wires high above the power lines.

I bet someone thought this was a genius idea. (Irony)_

Conductor galloping cross phase. Always a good visual.

Nobody going to subway anyways.

To quote Jeremy Clarkson POWEEEEEEEEEER

Oh yeah because having bare HV Lines cross each other with what seems like a few inches off distance is totally a good idea... Installing a setup like this is asking for linemen having to reset reclosures or replace blown cutouts on a weekly basis. This can only be a 7200V distribution so they could easily cross that street with an underground cable

I just heard this sound and my power went off and came right back on.

Musical Fireworks

Yo thats what happens when the terminator is about to arrive ! RUN DUDE!!!!!!

Who was the idiot that thought the power lines would be fine going through each other like this??

That's a cool sound

Why run so many that close?

On one hand i am screaming internally but like they would have replaced it if it was like super dangerous right?
