So is the crew trying to save her or save their equipment?

The question is, was she drunk, high on drugs, protesting something or acting out a dare. I would have left her butt up there and turned on the juice.

That's a shocking thing to say Frank. (Sorry)

That may be, but if more people paid for their stupidity with their lives without endangering others in the process, there would be fewer people doing stupid things.

Circuits had to be off before she got up there.

My daughter in law is the "raptor protection specialist" for a large power transmission company. She has to report any bird kills to some government agency, Pigeons are not a big deal, but and eagle is another matter. If it is a protected specie she has to submit a remediation plan to prevert future deaths.

I am thinking it may have been a new installation which hadn't been connected to the grid yet otherwise why was the ladder there. None of the workers were wearing high voltage gear either. this woman will probably eventually discover another way to win her Darwin award

Notice how she rotated herself from underneath the wire to the top! Not easy to do on a wire. The circus is hiring.
