Always tried to stay outta the line of fire........one time got hit with a 9/16 box end rachet..dropped off a 40 ftr...one guy had the lens of his prescription glasses pop out of the frame and I was under the pole looking for it, told em I was there...an apprentice dropped the rachet and it hit me on my right arm, just above the e;bow...........hurt like hell and the next day mine arm was all different colors of black and blue, and sore as hell...........
