Tree Felling Scenarios Pt.2

okay next we have a pretty good-sized oak tree we're gonna cut down because it has some decay in it we had to move this whole contraption here commercial Duty rated 10 horsepower wood big hole there her whole on the other side definitely one or a compensation line in Damien's gonna go fall it brevet snack well I set this line it's a hug yeah it's bad looking well don't get hurt then this tree has various decay all over it sometimes you got to look at these trees and think what would I do if it was mine I wouldn't let this thing loom over my kids now believe it or not YouTube I don't know it's it's it's better in real life but this that's a lot of trunk wait Oh leaning the wrong way with potentially ugly foundation in other words rotten wood at the base that's why I went with the bucket truck bigger more weight more pull without having these blocks and rather than just compensating this way which would be a stiff arm it would have less leverage that direction so we're going for going for it it would suck to fail on this one let's see what happened [Music] so yes it's punky inside yes it leans back like nuts on punky wood and yes I just hit a nail [Applause] [Music] it's like a super old square spike and that's right where I need to cut so no more humble I think well we'll make a traditional notch that's a good excuse to move the cut yeah let's look for some new nails that's not what you want when you're cutting wood yeah I told the guy I said if it's all it in there then I apologize now but I don't think it is this makes me think I might I put another line in it just precaution now it'll be okay that's that's a big truck yeah and that's a pretty high pull if it starts setting back on my back cut with all that tension then we'll put another line in it and put the black truck out there with the winch see where where should I put you guys hmm where you wanna be I think I think I'll put you guys right how's that you guys pretty comfortable right there okay [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] yeah I'd say pull some [Music] hold on sit back [Music] okay pull it over [Music] so so yeah my voice cracked a little cuz I get nervous but not it's the kind of nervous where you know you're doing the right thing but but you still have like these these little shoulder angels that are bad that are going you can't do it you should do something else you're crazy well this wood is junk that you see how there's no hinge there's no like fibers this is DK total junk look at this see that doesn't tear off hard that's just garbage total yeah I'm glad I told this guy to cut it down and then inside the tree is a slug what are you doing in here get out of there okay he wants to stay he's like an extreme slug hanging out right there where is he he's down in here I always wanted to make a big face cut and a hollow tree and then get inside the hollow and then have somebody follow the tree with the bar going over my head and then stand up as it falls and be like this is the first place the Sun has shined on me in this spot ever - that's kind of dumb I just thought of something that some of these saw nerds these aspiring saw nerds might want to hear this is this is a huge hinge the reason I stopped cutting and told him to pull over the tree is because I knew that the hinge did not go all the way across like the whole middle of it was gone otherwise this would be you know you might put too much pressure on the rope and stuff if you're pulling over a hinge of this big but because this was missing the whole center of the tree and because this is just junk I knew it was time to stop cutting and start pulling oh yeah completely sound tree yeah I would have brought it up to three three inches all the way across yeah yeah this yeah and it broke like the Butterfinger bar yeah but then it's just like all the way into here yeah yeah so you got to be pretty committed to make a face cut in a back leaner you know that's putting it office it of its lean so yeh bullrope and we had it up there pretty high blah blah blah blah blah you guys saw the whole thing anyway too much talk
