Final narrative
Two employees were removing service wire that had been de-energized (energy source to street lights in preparation for demolition work for a new ski lodge). The injured employee climbed a utility pole; when he cut the line, it changed the balance of the pole (strain on pole) and caused it to break off at ground level. The employee fell approximately 22 to 25 feet to the ground. He was hospitalized.
