What could they have done differently? NEVER erect or try to erect anything where it could come in contact with power lines. Even if you manage to get it up without a problem, if it can fall and reach the power lines the result will be a disaster.

That means ANY kind of power line and even things like ladders. STAY AWAY!

If this weren't so tragic I would say that this is a contender for the Darwin awards.
