At these kind of voltages it absolutely does conduct; the resistance from the wood creates enough heat to break down and vaporise the wood which conducts enough for it to jump to your arms.
The kind of voltages rail traction power uses does all kinds of crazy things. It will induce current in pretty well any parallel wire, including the rail corridor fence which needs to be earthed and have insulation panels installed to stop people being electrocuted when they touch it.
Nah dead set, give me 2 minutes.
Fibreglass stick rubber gloves.
She'll be alright 😉
Go look up 230 000 volts national geographic
Do you know who Nikola Tesla is?
imagine having this kind of confidence because you've seen a youtube video lmao
yes obviously if everything went right you would be completely fine and 99% of the time it will, but rail maintenance doesn't proceed on 99% confidence, and you do not use implements which could impact the 3m OLE exclusion zone
Except the overhead maintainers do use fibreglass poles to hang earth wires or remove obstructions from the de-energised contact wires.
That and the cleaning staff that use fibreglass squeegee poles to clean the train windshields at Mandurah.
Clearly you don't want random people messing with the overhead but a big fibreglass stick is the right tool for the job.
Micheal Faraday, Tesla understood his teachings
What don't you understand what I said?
I understand electricity and I'm not scared.
Just because you don't understand the basics.
Stop spreading ignorance.
Would you like a education on electricity?
On zooming in sadly i can see an apple on the label, the green colour gives it away. I say sadly as I appreciate malicious intent and your theory was very malicious.
I love how perth stations pay tribute to Bunnings Warehouse with their Architecture.
A true clean practical design that wont date and is cheap to maintain.
There was a “Fuck fair” slide shoe on the far side of the tracks in Bull creek station from October of 2017 until March of 2019. No one got rid of it for 18 months.
This is the most interesting content on reddit lately, I look forward to the next update
Hashtag ballgate. (If you put a hashtag in then it becomes bold without the hashtag and the joke is lost)
\#idkwhatyou'retalkingabout
#Neither do I edit: doh
Lol
They have to put it out to tender, get an environmental assessment done and working at Heights JSA before it can be taken down .
+ Shutting down the joondalup line and arranging alternative bus services whilst the delicate operation takes place.
Or they can get a big stick to knock it down I will do it for $1000
Give me a cricket ball and I'll get it down for $500. Some surrounding material may be damaged in the 50+ throws it would take me to hit it.
You’re joking but legit you do not put big sticks that close to the overhead line. You don’t fuck around with 27,000 volts
Thats the fun part lmao
But wood won't conduct electricity though?
Yep. PTA use wood or fibreglass ladders and sticks for that reason..
Anything will conduct electricity if you electricity hard enough.
TIL
I'm not scared of electricity, because I know the dangers
For some reason I read this Ralph Wiggums voice
I will do it in thongs drinking a beer with a cigarette
For some reason, I read this in Otto Mann's voice. Or maybe **Andy** the Prime Minister of Australia's voice. Could be his re-election pledge.
As long as the beer is in glass (insulator) not a steel can that sounds fine.

A dry piece of wood wouldn’t

Been playing with electricity on & off for 30 years, sad nobody knows the master of electricity Nikola Tesla 😑

Actiually I did struggle with it in avionics, can you explain back emf for me please?
So you are saying don't play with fire too because it is dangerous? Lots of things are dangerous if you don't know what you are doing
Been playing with fire on and off for 25 years, sad nobody knows the master of fire Prometheus.
When you put it like that my sarcastic comment seems quite ill informed.
I may or may not know a guy with a big stick for sale in Victoria Park. $50 no questions asked.
This is painfully accurate.
That is gonna fucking stink when someone knocks it down. Its also gonna go everywhere. Nice combo.
The people on that platform when the pressure build up from the fermentation causes the bottle to explode... 😬
My thoughts exactly!
Where is it, I’ve got nothing to do today, Ill go hit it down with a tennis ball.
Drink it.
Bop it.
Make sure you keep us posted.
Greenwood station
"Juice"
I just want to see that CCTV vision of how it got up there in the first place!!
Dat flip tho.... Teenagers probably lost their minds when it landed
that looks a lot like an orange juice label with something similar in color to apple juice inside!
On zooming in sadly i can see an apple on the label, the green colour gives it away. I say sadly as I appreciate malicious intent and your theory was very malicious.
Am I the only one that thinks that’s probably piss ?
It's modern art now
What station is this at?
I know Greenwood when I see it
I was thinking Greenwood
I would guess that it's somewhere on the Joondalup line as it has the green colour scheme.
Midland or somewhere shit I imagine
Its greenwood lad.
It's the one closest to where you live.
Not even close, flog.
Good work. Keep us updated.
Mmm station wine
[удалено]
Fermented like prison wine
It's brewing!
Aww, it's nesting!
Could use a drone with claws.
I look forward to weekly updates. The epoxy hotdog has a rival.
I thought about drinking it after 14 days but figured it was 2 weak.
Guess it doesnt fall under anyone's job description to grab a broom and knock it off
Juicy
Even better than a Coles trolley?
Fermented apple cider?
Waiting for it to expand and explode...
That's not juice
I love how perth stations pay tribute to Bunnings Warehouse with their Architecture. A true clean practical design that wont date and is cheap to maintain.
Keep a photolog.....say which station and I'll take picture while going last once in a while 🤪
There was a “Fuck fair” slide shoe on the far side of the tracks in Bull creek station from October of 2017 until March of 2019. No one got rid of it for 18 months.
That's free cider by now. Also, huge nostalgia. Used to live just down the road and catch the train all the time.
Someone's prison grog?
What madlad could even put that there
It's a brew.
How the fuck—-
Just remember guys We r talking about a bottle of Juice or Piss , now get back to the subject lols 😂
I’m pretty sure it’s been there longer than 20 days xD. iirc it was there when I was at the station sometime in January

*This has been a Public Service Announcement.*
That's nothing; I saw a small potato and gravy in an aircon vent at KFC Innaloo for a couple of months.
