The government thought they were slick trying to charge all their birds at once.

of the line... Manager: that would never happen.

I can just hear the child in someone's house under those lines before
it popped, "Mom, what's for dinner? I'm hungry!" Pop happens,
everything goes dark and then, tiny chicken nuggets start raining down
outside.

If anyone is wondering what happened, it's cause as soon as the birds
all suddenly flew at the same time, it meant the weight of the birds
made the wires bounce and touch or get very close to each other
causing the electric to jump. A few birds might have been injured or
killed but most would be okay as they all went at the same time and
had cleared the area.

I figure it was the mass of birds creating a conductive path between
the lines, and resulting in the arc runaway once the current started
flowing.

@dubmob151 I can see how you came to this conclusion. But no, it
would be a major problem if that was the case and the power lines
would have to be laid out completely differently as large groups of
birds are super common around the world. I have no idea why this
failed so badly. Maybe a storm had past though recently.

@randomly1552 you think the weight of the birds were actually enough
to spring board the high tension lines to the point where they
contacted? That would seem more of a design flaw, as it wasn't like it
was a flock of 20lb Thanksgiving turkeys taking off. That I could
imagine getting able to shift the position of the wires.
