Not that dangerous
Only in danger if they are earthed, you never see dead birds under power lines do you? Not taking anything away from them though, still fearless :)

- That's unthoughtful to say
  This is among the most dangerous jobs. At that height, with that voltage, any mistake or misfortune can be FATAL. What do you think if say, there is a sudden wind gust? Or if the man on that day somehow don't feel well and get sick while on the wire?
