Arutam Race Support for Ikiama Nukuri
I am participating in an event (more on the event later) to support a program that is educating and empowering women of the Amazon Rainforest to become leaders in their communities, their countries, and our world to protect themselves, their families, and our home: The Amazon Rainforest. This program is called the “Ikiama Nukuri” (Achuar for Women Guardians of the Jungle), and it was created by the women of the Amazon with support from the Pachamama Alliance, an organization I’ve been involved with for about 10 years. To hear from the women of the Ikiama Nukuri Program, go to: vimeo.com/327129968
To support the Ikiama Nukuri Program, in September, I will join nineteen other athletes from the North to compete with the Achuar men of the Amazon in their first “Arutam Amazon Race” (“Arutam” mean Spirit of the Jungle) hosted by the Pachamama Alliance. The race involves kayaking 20 kilometers down the Pastaza River in Ecuador, trekking 22-kilometers in the raw Amazon Jungle, orienteering competition, shooting blow-darts, and a number of other challenges created by the Achuar communities. A race of this sort has never been done before. At its core is bridging the wisdom of our two worldviews to bring forth a just and thriving world for all.
Here are four ways you can join me on this journey in support of this endeavor:
1. Send me positive energy, messages, and encouragement. …I’m going to need it.
2. Pass this note along to your friends and family who might be inspired to support Ikiama Nukuri.
3. Pass this information to any athletes you know who might be interested in participating on September 21 - 27, 2022. Registration just opened, and there are about 12-spaces remaining.

I love the video because it's load and clear.🎉
It looks & sounds like that work place has the nicest, friendliest, most caring work & life based approach to life & what is worth. I’ll admit I had a lump in my throat & a tear in my eye, I’m so sorry for the loss of your true friend Eddie Adams.❤
"you have to violate policy to get hurt" Says the non-paid actor / coerced employee 🗿
Omg guys analog horror guys look guys
Today I read a story on Reddit about 'what was the scariest thing you ever saw' and a guy talked about someone failing to lockout. Which resulted a person being carbonized. Lots of follow up stories on the thread and I thought what the heck is an arc flash. I'm a lawyer and while I've held crap jobs in college to pay for law school I've never done something like this. So a few videos on UA-cam and Eddie was mentioned on Reddit and christ I'm sorry I'm curious about things. To be the helpful guy and pay that price. I feel so bad for his family and everyone that worked with him. That's the thing, we dont think when we become good at our jobs and do the same thing 1000 times. We don't think about how a workplace accident will really affect the coworkers. My brother and I survived 9/11 by a series of oddly timed events. We were late going in and left the building before we got to our offices. My brother killed himself about 10 years ago from survivor's guilt. I have depression and anxiety and guilt and weird things remind me of people I didn't know well but I saw everyday and knew enough to chat briefly. Little things but boy do they add up. I lost people I was very close with as well. I try to believe it was quick but my mind goes to dark places. Eddie being on fire and making it out of the building that took strength and determination. I can imagine he was aware he'd made a mistake and by getting out at least his family would know what happened to him and not wonder and worry. The not knowing is cruel punishment. I can't imagine being an electrician and watching this and still skipping safety precautions. This terrified me. Don't let Eddie's death be in vain. Think of the person you love most losing you and the hell they would go through knowing you lost your life because you couldn't take 5 minutes to suit up. It would drive me insane. Its that soul crushing grief and anger thhat stops your breathing. Those that have lost someone close to them knoe what I mean.
Yeah, im glad im an office.
This is the greatest electrical safety video of all time
Before seeing this in 2024 i needed to work safe. After seeing it, i want to work safe. Stay safe all✌🏽
Here I am in 2024
Congratulations

This poor man must have been in absolute agony and terrified beyond measure! I can't imagine what he must have been feeling and thinking! RIP sir I am so sorry this happened to you!
Rip, Eddie. Im sorry this happened.
I’ve never worked an industrial job, so I can’t say what I would’ve done or what should’ve been done. It’s awful that this situation ended in tragedy. So sorry for his family and coworkers.
I return to this video a lot as an electrical engineer, I'd be devastated if an electrician died from any gear I designed.
⚡️Rip⚡️
RIP Eddie Adams 😢
2.3kV is a monster of a value geez. He was trying to rush for help but there were hazards in the way, poor guy
I’m an electrician and I’ve done residential, commercial, and industrial work. In my experience I’ve noticed that industrial plants have the worst and most dangerous electrical work. Each time I do work there I try to work on the systems de-energized but when that isn’t possible (almost always the case) I test everything. I’ve seen a 208v 3 phase machine wired from 2 different panels. It had 2 hot legs from one and the third from a different panel.
Not to seem insensitive or anything but proper arc flash PPE and stop drop and roll could have saved this man's life

So he killed himself okay why is the company making this video? Kinda pointless unless we are just remembering this fool for not using his head
It's a video that presents the horror of not following safety rules in this line of work. In the same era, it would be like showing horrific drunk driving crashes in a DUI prevention seminar.
He died for a company that would have no problem firing you. Remember that when you go to work. You will always be just a number to the people at the top.
He did not die for the company he died cause he made a mistake !
That is one thing i never mess with i hate and I'm scared of electricity any time i have got shocked i punch holes in the wall after
It's so awful to think that as he's running along the form line & across the plant,his body has already begun the process of shutting down.😭😭
That is hard to hear becuase not only did he get burnt. He didnt die instantly. No matter the amount of time even if someone was there the likelihood he lived would have been small. To be burning that hot for that long, your skin and tissue is melting, burning your insides and internal passages. You are cooking on the inside. But while this is tragic, it was stupid. You work in a dangerous area, you take great care and respect for those equipments and do everything you can to stay safe, extra people, double checks, more checks, plans, even for a simple task you always over prepare. But to just do this, its what happens. Accidents dont happen because you try to, accidents happen when you make dumb mistakes. And those mistakes in these areas cost you or others their lives.
It's not only about dying. Is about how you die. You better hope the electricity stops your heart. Else... your body becomes the path of electricity, and your body has high resistance, heating up from the inside, like a stove plate or oven element. Death by electricity is probably one of the worst deaths you can have. Cancer is bad, I have seen it, seen the horror of it. Flesh falling away... but the worst still has to be from radiation... like the poor guy in Japan the doctors kept alive after receiving a load of radiation.
Now I will think of Eddie every time I think of eddy currents
Get the chills every time i watch this video. I like to watch it every now and then to remind myself to slow down and triple check what i’m doing. Thanks again for the video!
Thanks to Eddie's coworkers for sharing.....LESSONS LEARNED are an enormous resource for preventing future catastrophic accidents like this one. 💔
Electricity and steam were always huge fears of mine at our plant, I could never have had the guts to be a Power Operator or an Electrician.
You can tell who in this video was his friends and who were the boot lickers/ safety heads. Yeah he messed up but it's the way thru say it that pisses me off. These are the same guys that will give workers shit about needing to get it done faster and saying how production is getting behind while it's fixed. Remember you are a number at a factory. Get your shit done right and remember if you get fired for being "too safe" you can get another factor job in a near by factory. P.S. I hope the guy explaining it in detail is able to afford therapy. You can tell it still eats at him which is totally understandable.
He's probably one of those guys that tells his team members to hurry up.
R.i.p eddie Adam's
Eddie Adams was a beast of a man
They showed this video in our electrician safety program every year.
NFPA 70-E . That information saves lives
Holy shit, man. I hope it's cathartic and willing of the guy to tell what happened - it seems like he's having an extremely hard time with coping.
Over 90% of workplace deaths happen to men.
Probably because we take bigger risk and the more dangerous jobs. I work in a factory and man the amount of safety violations the company lets pass is really insane to me. The pay and hours doesnt even justify the risk so im leaving when i feel safe enough with my savings. Me and my coworker got hired within a day with 0 training and had to learn safety from other workers or dangerous mistakes that have injured us. The company didnt teach us anything
Really didn’t like that smirk the suit made when speaking on Eddie not reading warning labels on the panel, 😕 idk shit looked evil. Rip Eddie and to all the people that have or god forbid will pass.
I feel like the man telling if the what was ...if still living needs to be further looked into firstly... no one goes to work in any place like that with out proper shoes. . He smerkes fuck that shit . The macho walk off like he the raging cock now hahaha
Bullshit. Everyone in this interview is blaming it on Eddie. These inbreds are trying to save their job
Training on arc flash safety. Thank you for the emotions and wisdom.
Eddie fucked up
As a residential electrician, The difference in those 2 testers was ASTOUNDING.
As an electrician 😢😢
Sad, but a sobering message like this can be the best lesson to enforce a real respect for the power of electricity and the need for safety procedures to be followed. My condolences to his family.
Rest in peace goonzquad
Excellent video. This should be circulated to every electrician on day 1.
This is absolutely heartbreaking. I would rather have heard that he was knocked out by hitting the panel behind him and then burned to death. Instead this poor man ran around on fire, surely in agony, leaving bits of clothing and skin and bodily fluids for his friends to find. It's true you don't rush into anything with electricity. You don't override safety mechanisms. You wear proper PPE. And you have a buddy. It hurts my heart to think of what this man went through that last day of his life.
R.I.P Eddy :(
the main issue is, that americans dont train electrician ... in germany there is a 3.5 or 4 year training before youre a professional... in america you just learn by doing...
Learn from failure, injury, or coworkers in my experience. Shocking how some companies dont even get inspected in many fields
why was he using his 1000v multimeter for high voltage? he must have not been a professional
