A pair of mylar balloon stars may seem innocent enough but not when they get caught on the power lines. The result? A little too much twinkle.
According to the YouTube description:
Mylar balloons flew and stuck onto the line as my crew was working on power lines. I instructed the two crew members to climb down the pole to be safe in case they caused an explosion from contact. I called to have the line de-energized. Before the line could be de-energized they made a line to ground contact causing an explosion and burning down 2 of the 3 lines.
Hold onto those balloons tight, kiddos.
