Just heard of a tragic accident in downtown Atlanta,  not going to start a rumor but we need info asap.  Powerline involved.  If this is not true I will delete immediately.

TT light up the beacon its time for bobman

yes i got a call about this also. not gonna name the company,but from what i was told boom got into power lines burnt up two mixer trucks and sent hose man to grady memorial hospital with third and forth degree burns. no other injuries that i know of.my prayers are with them all.

Im guessing It starts with a P...and ends with an... er.  Hope the operator is ok.

Why not say the company name I don't think they are a Sponsor and there are only two companys down here in the south that start with a P & and end with a er, and they are owned by the one in Atlanta.

 The only reason anyone should even want to know whos company was involved should be out of concern for another Brother. If I'm not mistaken Brother bullfrog works for them. (I think) The company was Pioneer and I dont wanna hear one word of smak talk, Please?

 Man I hope no one was hurt! What a hard week, only one more day to go. Hope everyone has a safe and easy Friday!

Bob may stop by for a moment from time to time but I think he has moved on. 

Wow...just saw it on channel 2 news this morning, the lafarge trucks were backed up paired, smoked the tires of one I could plainly see and news person said it blew the shoes off one driver and sent them to Grady with some nasty burns. I remember being foolish enough to boom over powerlines once.....ONCE! I hope the ready mix driver will recover ok. Looked for a story on the 3 major news channels websites but dont see anything obvious.

The mixer driver is going to be ok, it is the hose man that thier concerned about.

The operator that it happened to is a seasoned op. Goes to show u it can happen to anyone. I hope everyone pulls thru this. We all know what company it was. I will not name it, out of respect for all involved.

shoulder boy be careful out there and do not drink the green tea.

Electrocution is soooo awful!  The burns that are visible imediately aren't the bad ones.  It's the ones that start to surface after a day or so...being cooked ain't cool...

Thanks for the tip Round Boy (Tom)> Trust me I have never since that awful exp. Hope all is well:)
