OUCH! Falling flat on your back off the top of a travel trailer is no bueno. I did the same thing from about half that height and my back has paid the price in the 30 years since.
#1 could have been worse. I used to work a series of remote microwave sites. One was in the middle of a cattle pasture separated from adjoining soybean field by an electric fence; just a single strand. One day, I had a tower maintenance crew out there.
'Round the middle of the day, I notice one of the crew walk over there. It took a second to realize what he was about to do.
#1 Always check an electric fence with the back of your hand. With the palm your hand may involuntarily closed into a fist hence holding the wire. Years ago we had a fence called a weed burner. Maybe they are still out there. I took a piss on one when I was about eight years old. Coming back from the swimming hole I stopped to take a leak by a fence. One of my buddies yelled my name, I turn and hit that sucker with a stream a piss and damn if I could stop pissing. Thought I was gonna turn to dust from dehydration. Not a found memory.
Always check an electric fence with a blade of grass. slide it slowly over the wire and the zap gets stronger the closer you get to it. Bill The Bunyip.....no googlethingy
I used to check ours by leaning into it, arcing through my britches leg. Same as a blade of grass. Sometimes the ground was so dry, that we had to run a ground around with the hot.
I watched my little brother wet it once, he sucked everything back in that had gone out and didn't pee for a week. It was really funny, back then.
Old neighbor's charger broke, so he split an extension cord and hooked it direct. He killed a horse because of that.
I had an old Sears & Roebuck 15 mile charger on my horse pen, back when I had horses. The pen was 1/3 acre, so the wire was quite a lot less than 15 miles. Every once in a while, if the ground was wet and you got close enough, a spark would jump out and get you. Got my horses more than once. Got me across the back when I was leaned under with both hands in the horse trough trying to get something out of it. Got the old ticker fairly jump-started, I tell you what!
#1: My wife's little brothers used to dare each other to pee on the electric fence. Most fence controllers are set to only apply power in a short burst every few seconds. So time it right and you're OK - but get it wrong and you'll be hurting a lot more than that girl.

This is proof that women are not smarter as men. It also proves they are as stupid as we are though.
ReplyDeleteDo I sense a theme here???
ReplyDelete#1: New version of stink finger?
ReplyDelete#10. I'm impressed the light fixture didn't come down.
ReplyDeleteAs an electrician- that was my first thought.
DeleteWell I had a #4 happen to me once,pretty freakin embarrassing. Are you sure #8 & #9 aren't the same broad??
ReplyDelete4. Over the line honey, mark it a zero.
ReplyDeleteHaving watched female figure skating, I can't believe girls can be this clumsy.
#4 Did she get a strike?????? The bowling alley maintenance staff won't be to happy about the belly flop on the lane. But a strike is strike LOL

It was too late.

That sounds better than the back of your hand, to be honest. I don’t like being shocked.

Yup, correct, the blade of grass works great. Afore I learned that the hired hands always taught me use that back of your hand.
