A few years ago this was an accepted procedure. Electricians always had utility seals and re sealed the meter when they were finished. Today this is not allowed by the utility companies. The electrician has to make arrangements with the utility for one of there employees to come and pull the meter and when the job is finished he will re install the meter and re seal it.

Could an electrician's apprentice be potentially dangerous?

Being an electrician can be dangerous. I know I have at least one relative who's death was directly related to his job as an electrician. As an electrician's apprentice, you're probably doing more assisting than doing but there will likely be plenty of hands-on time. So, yes, it would still be moderately dangerous. As long as you're cautious, not all that dangerous though.

If you stick your arm out a airplane will it brake?

Because to break an arm requires either a considerable amount of force or asharp impact. A typical airliner cruising at altitude is doing 400kts. You would not be able to hold your arm perpendicular to the airstream but it would not break. After a short period your arm would become frozen and your skin would start to break off.
