People still pike today. The poles look different but the method is still basically the same. You can’t always get a boom truck to every spot you need a poleEveryone in that picture is in danger. If the bottom kicks that pole is going forward. That pole is not going to fall straight down with 6 guys pushing from different angles. I think that pic was taken long before OSHA came into the work place.
AND as much as I dislike OSHA, there is not a rule on their books that was not a result of serious injury or death.
