This was in Jiading, suburb of Shanghai, China, at a shopping mall.
So I took the following sequence of pictures while on a site visit for an un-related product. The locals were using a quite large Genie lift to hoist a lightpole out of the ground so they could fix the wires in the base of it. They had lashed the ropes to the upper part of the pole assembly, then a guy leaned out over the edge of the bucket to reposition the ropes as they raised the boom up. Then they put tension on the ropes, while the guys on the ground removed the bolts holding it down.
It worked out okay for them, but I'm guessing this wouldn't be allowed in the US!
Check out the "awesome" wire connections at the bottom.
What do you guys think?
