Thats crazy stupid!
Not sure if the 2 skid loaders are rentals, But I bet he could've rented a bucket boom for around the same cost,

The cost of repairing a power line would keep me from doing that particular set up,

But as far as the comments to the po-po. Go to .....!;-)

That's a real "Can Do" attitude and American ingenuity at it's best!

Wow, that guy has a set of 'nad's!!! If someone offered me a $1 mil to climb up to where he's at, I'd tell them to kiss my ***!! Not worth the risk to me.

I'm guessing that once he got to the top of the first ladder, he secured it to the tree, and the same thing with the bottom of the upper ladder. Then, once he got to the top of the upper ladder. he most likely secured it in place as well. I hope it all turned out well for him.

Oh yeah, I hope he told the cops that if he was breaking a law, to come up there and arrest him and put him in cuffs LOL.
