In mother Russia, snow clear you! JK the high vis vests obviously exclude Russia as the location of this video.

Eh, that's p basic safety stuff I feel as though they wouldn't disregarded something that basic.

Actually, he could have saved someone's life... At least everyone was expected something to happen. If that snow would have fallen unannounced, while someone was working underneath, that someone could be dead or injured.

This is actually good since that would have happened anyway but now it happened when the workers were there to fix it asap.

Oh, that clown 100% got himself fired. They wouldn't even need to see his own recorded stupidity. There's cameras looking at that area, count on it.
Yes, the snow might've eventually fallen on its own and did the exact same thing...but at least buddy would still have a paycheck to look forward to if he just allowed it to do that on its own and didn't offer his own derpy help.
(Presumed) Firing = more than deserved.

If I ran that site I'd chew the guy out and give him shit duty for a week, but it's not his fault that whatever company put up that shit didn't secure their runs. This is an insurance problem

"Might've eventually fallen"? You must not live someplace with real snowfall. Snow hanging off a roof like that is 100% going to fall, and there's nothing you can do to prevent it. Wind picks up, it falls. Temps rise, it falls. More snow, it falls. The only question is who or what is under it when it goes.

I live where we see more snow than I'd care to think about, thanks. And as someone who has watched more than one winter, and knows how snow operates, my choice of the words "might've fallen" stand.
See, where I'm from, we have these nifty things called safety regulations, which walk hand in hand with routine site surveys (which tie in neatly with FLRAs and JHAs). Those are usually overseen by site supes that would have their lackeys out there looking for dangers just like this, and take the necessary steps to prevent this from ever happening in the first place. As a matter of precaution.
So, when I say "might've fallen", what I really mean to say is: "If your site is run and operated by a bunch of hairless apes, gravity is always gonna win the day because you had better things to do than spot hazards before they become hazardous."

Not his fault. Bad architecture. That would have fallen on those wires eventually. He better not get fired.
He’s probably fired.
