Rubber gloves and sleeves would have made a difference thats what there for.

Never, Never, Never, Ever Give Up!

He came to our safety meeting a few months ago, very entertaining and inspiring as well

Thank you all for your service. You all risk your lives to make ours easier. Thank you. ❤❤❤

I have no idea what it would be like to go through that. You and your family are incredibly strong! I cut off my thumb and it was reattached. Works fine. but I still struggle with buttons. 😂 Cuz no feeling. So I can only imagine.

MAD

So what exactly happened? It sounds like one gloved hand touched a line. But that wouldn't have done anything since the glove and bucket truck act as insulation.

He sounds like a solid person we could all use more people like Jerry he’s an inspiration for all of us.

Gerry you messed up bro

I wonder if the rubber gloves would have made a difference????

sad story. always wear your rubbers folks

I think that coop’s are all the same great people work there help you do anything. My dad was a lineman for the coop SECO Energy in Florida he work there for 41 years it’s like a big family and I was a lineman for the contractor for that coop. When I see these people it reminds me of how it was.

Thank you for this overview.

"Promo sm" 💞

God bless you. God bless your amazing wife as well, any man would be greatful to have a woman in their life to have their back like that. 🇺🇲

I’m not a lineman. I own a sign company and spend most of time in the air. Occasionally have to work around tension lines (safely of course). That being said, just curious…did Gerry contact the tension line, or did it arc? Also, was he holding the neutral with his other hand? I’m trying to visualize how it happened.

6 minutes in; what happened? Don't need to know how many kids you have and how much gas was in each truck.

God Bless you 🙏🙏🙏

May God bless you and your family!

Hey guys I survived 19kva 3 times I lost both legs. I have an interview on Sa power networks channel, Thankyou for your story mate

Thank y’all for sharing your story. God bless.

Thank you Conexon and MVE!! I am so happy and excited that you are making fiber internet available to Colorado Springs! XFINITY has held a monopoly and provided substandard service to the residents for years. That time has ended and a new age begins. This is the perfect example of why competition is so good for consumers. I have my appointment scheduled for June and am looking forward to enjoying my multi-gigabit fiber service 😎

Gerry you and family from former linesman Jamaica W.I. Cable Splicer Tech Manhattan NYC, ( since 1936 no overheads in Manhattan manholes only) Jah Blessings everytime,

Gerry to you and family

Super Soldiers...

ALTEC Engineers For The Win!!!!!

Now, THAT was a happy, feel-good story for me. Just thinking of the great people and the great company he worked for is really remarkable. He smiled the whole way through talking about everyone that loves him so much, and I was smiling too. I wonder what city he lives in where everyone is so kind? I wonder if he knew, ahead of the accident, how many people loved and respected him. (His hands are AMAZING)

Can someone explain to me how electricity can continue to burn after contact has been interrupted?

What good people jerry is top tier of humanity. And his wife and friends are gems .

These are some of the most under appreciated workers out there. We don’t realize the danger involved. Thanks

Dang man , my hart goes out to you I appreciate everything you do to keep the power on thank you

im a retired REA lineman 32yrs i never like to hear stuff like this,jerry you are a brave man a special breed of a man

Hey gerry your a true blue legend. I hit 19kva took 3 hits over 11 seconds. I lost both legs and 30% of me is skinfrafted. I was lubricating a scissor lift in south Australia when my platform was raised by another worker. I took the full grunt. 3 years later im sitting in the royal Adelaide hospital after more surgery watching this. I hope you enjoy your happy to be alive day mate. Well done on your rehab your a strong man. Thankyou for this video mate.

Gerry, Just finished reading your story. I was a lineman for 38 years and in my heart and head I am still a lineman. You are one strong individual and a true example of courage and determination. I personally know another lineman and friend who suffered through a similar though not exact injury. Both of you are great and strong men who are examples of courage. All of us in that line of work have had a day when just for a second something else comes in your mind and you are or could be in trouble. Sometimes, by the help and warning of a co- worker or the grace of god we escape and nothing happens. Those that say it can never happen to them are kidding themselves or just haven’t been in the trade long enough. I do realize that today’s safety rules are a lot more stringent today than they were in 1962 when I started and that is great. Anyway Gerry, my brother and fellow lineman, thanks for being the person you are and thanks to your family and friends for hanging in there with you. Stay strong brother.

Wow. I just looked up this occupation because of the Glen Campbell song. Very impressed at this job. This story is so humbling. God bless him and his family. I admire this guy. Whole situation is so scary!!!

Sometimes we just need that uplifting reminder. Thank you for posting.

Amen.

Thoughts and Prayers.May God Bless and be with his wife. Holy God. Him too, but, Jesus, lord of love and mercy, for the both of them. For all Linemen, thoughts and prayers for safety and guidance. mmmm is like chalk board and teeth. I have had my teeth pulled and still get phantom pain, I cannot imagine, with both hands. Total Prayers. with ms absolutely bees, that is nerves. Burning, stinging. look to see a bee, or what is biting, and no bees no nothing there. Nerve damage of many kinds, is perplexing we are used to seeing something, a reason for the feelings, etc. That is very hard, and how frustrating for them, I am glad they have their home set up, and the help that is so awesome, treasured Blessings. Praise God he made it and that they have that faith, their church family, work family, etc. God Bless and be with them.

I know its not the military, but it seems right to say........... Thank you for your service and blessings to you & your family.

Exciting news!

dear limon... over the years if broadband was important you would have spent the time and money to get it.

we fought for years and even contacted MVE about broadband on their power lines. we offered unique solutions but MVE coveted their pole real estate. finally the US Gov dropped billions of dollars for broadband infrastructure. so stop the back slappiing and get busy.

Seriously excited for this hopefully it’s not years in the doing

Is there a schedule yet? I am particularly interested in when it will be available in Limon.

Cable whip. Always be aware and treat every wire like it's live.

Sounds like one of the nicest group of guys you ever want to meet..... 😢❤️

I heard Jerry say it? He was complacent in his job. He was thinking of his next ten days off. Four wheeling with his wife. Working aloft & thinking of something else & not on the job. Question? They mentioned a man had to climb a pole in a right of way? I guess their work practice is to not get a clearance & ground the line? No mention of cover? Very sad for everyone involved. If it wasn’t his strong will & personality? He might not have survived? I guess I’ve been very fortunate not to have had a serious burn like Jerry’s in my over thirty years of doing line work? I used to wear leathers in the secondary zone. That’s where Jerry had his accident. The last eighteen years I’ve been wearing rubber gloves & sleeves. My biggest mis steps haven’t been my gloves. I jump in the bucket & realize I don’t have my harness on. Then I have to jump out & get my ppe on. I hope the co-op kept Jerry after his accident. He deserves a second chance!
