Bordew,
I got knocked nearly out of the boom truck once changing out a ballast in a parking lot pole that had 300KV lines above. The circuit was shut off, but the ballast secondaries still read 98V. (OK, guys. Burn me for not taking out the tester first, yes I was an idiot) There's a health hazard
That sounds like an induced voltage not stray voltage. Did you visit their site ? One guy claims, ' Lightning came out of my hands ', these are the same people who constantly report UFO sightings, wiht no substantial verification, and now there is some congressional investigations to boot, with our tax dollars footing the bill. The next thing on their agenda is Class action lawsuits, and who do you think will pay that bill, you guessed it, the US Tax payer.
Granted stray voltage exist but there is usually a reason for it.
