Something about all the "energy" being concentrated at the highest point of the pole, physics, inertia and a few other things that i don't quite remember. He also mentioned its rather costly to repair, hope the guy has good insurance.
(This particular buddy is the master of mischief, he could have been jerkin me around )

Sounds about right from what was explained to me from the local lineman.
