Being a retired electrician, I can tell you that is a back breaking job out in the real world. That cable weights a lot and it man handles YOU. Vid is a good one for showing how it's done, and I wish it was just as easy in the real world. He did a great job on that cable.

Just a heads up for ya on your 'world conquest'. It's going to take a LOT of effort to get past my 500kV energised faraday cage I've built as a 'panic room'. I guess you COULD just wait for the batteries to run down, but since Elon Musk grabbed all the Li-Ion cells, I chose to use a Thorium-based LFTR inside the cage instead. Given the half life of my Thorium stockpile, I think I should be god for about 13 or so billion years

I don't know what it is, but these industrial cabling demonstrations are friggen fascinating to no end.

This is true, but it might be more of a sales pitch. There are lots of manufacturers of cable joints so they were probably demonstrating how there joints are done. Compared to say a raychem, sicame or tyco joint. Someone might see this and say that's quicker than the joints they use. Or it might be a training video for apprentices.
