"My Wife nagged at me last night, for walking
through the house with my boots on again.
So I decided to jump on the bike and go
for a quick spin, to cool down...

Back in the '80's when I was in Electric Lineman school we went to watch a crew "bare hand" a transmission line in the area. He was wearing a special metallic suit but still could feel EMF. He almost got zapped when they pulled metal tools up to him with a hand line because he almost forgot to ground the tools to the metal tower to release the charge. Metal tools become energized by induction when near the active power lines. They weren't using a chopper either they climbed the tower, then climbed onto the live circuit.
Not only would I be scared about dying on the job but about long term effects...cancer etc.
Gotta really trust the pilot too.
