I saw the video OK.  It's not so smart to publicize this kind of stuff.  It's also surprising that back in the day of expensive film cameras and crude video systems somebody happened to film it.

The was a wimpy power line to get taken of by some .018" lines.  I saw one over in Canada (live) where the power lines vaporized the control lines in a microsecond like a flash bulb and did not phase the grid.
