This is showing a hot dog touching 7,640 volts...the hot dog burst and was not to pretty afterwards. The hot dog demo represented what would happen to a human...YIKES!The girls got to wear pink hard hats during the demonstration. They thought they were pretty cool...pretty cute if I do say so myself :-)
Marcus seemed to enjoy himself too. He was pretty quiet and clapped a few times during the demonstration.
This demo was to show what happens if a human (yes, another hot dog) touches their vehicle while a powerline is on it. Very Dangerous! They recomend you jump out of your vehicle and then hop away from it to get out of the danger zone of the electricity. Do Not Touch the outside of the vehicle by any means!Olivia was a little bummed about the jeep demo, she wanted to drive that jeep.
Here they are showing what happens when a kite gets tangled in the power lines...do not fly your kite near power lines. This was an Elmo kite.I think Emma was a little bummed that Elmo got burned.
We all had a good time. It was fun to see what Daddy has been doing these past few months. I also learned a lot about power lines and electricity.

WOW! The kids really seemed interested. Good way to educate. I remember all the years my folks took us to firefighter demonstrations - Dad dressed in fireproof clothing dragging a dummy out of a burning jet. Pretty powerful teacher.
Love the pink hard hats:)
