Some of those were glaring obvious, but others I wasn't so sure what I was looking at that was a problem, or bad.
Like the construction site one.

I have to admit I'm torn between the cable fed through the gutter and the inline splice made up on the suspended wire, as my favorites.

I have to say the smashed pedestals (Run over by a car) are my favourite. Tampering with a series fed apartment building is a close second (I still wake up in a cold sweat about 14 floors of cable off, from my service days)

Your right though the inline aerial splice is a bitch cuz now the whole damn line has to come down to be repaired :grrrrrr:

I like the guy at the beginning, looks like the death stare my dig crew gives me sometimes. When I say "No I need you to dig 30m over there...not where your at." :oops:

I think you were looking at a pedestal that was dozed over but it in the middle of a future driveway too

Amazing how creative people can be to get something for free.
I kinda like the aerial splice that took a lot of effort to do.
I just dont think you cable guys appreciate the effort these people put into stealing cable and providing job security for you. :wink:
