Bro has mad climbing skills and a huge razor sharp knife.

I hadn't seen this before, hope y'all haven't either. This dude is a master.

Cool vid. Looks like a nice way to make a living. Probably a lot better for you than the refined white sugar. I'd like to try that drink.

And here I thought the only thing from palm trees was coconuts!

 

[sotc]

Interesting, it surprisingly looked sanitary through the process

 

[Sgriff]

Them palms have a bad azz look to them

 

[MasterBlaster]

I wonder why he felt the need for that ladder?

 

[Jomo]

Thanks for posting Cory.

Note his stylish Scottish kilt to keep cool?

To get above entangling understory and doubled diameter of the palms base Butch.

Somebody peeled those palms.

Even the blind can make a living climbing palms overseas.

Didn't strike me as all that sanitary/hygienic, although not horrifically terrible. That plastic bag they put the sugar ingots on looked to have dirt on it. I bet it is still healthier for you than any commercial candy here in the states.

I wonder if the way it was rendered would give the sugar a caramel flavor... I'd like to try some.

 

[MasterBlaster]

I liked the toe ring.

Yeah, but you don't drink sun tea either :p

 

[lumberjack]

Hahahahaha that's an old conversation!

 

[MasterBlaster]

What's wrong with sun tea? I've never had it but I've heard of it...

 

[lumberjack]

We had a conversation about it 7 years ago. Tea that is put in water and left in the sun for an extended periods. That can cause bacteria growth that can cause issues.

[MasterBlaster]

Ahhhhh...

 

[Jed]

Man, you guys.

That was cool, Cory. Weirdest part was the almost Christmas music in the one climbing part.

 

[flushcut]

Cool video! Guy has skillz.

 

[Limbrat]

And a sharp knife! Good find Cory, I bet he gets his share of stings judging from the bees and wasps buzzing around

 

[MasterBlaster]

They've never bothered me in a tree... they're too busy working. A nest, however...

 

[Limbrat]

I may start another thread and pose a question about those critters

 

[kevin bingham]

sweeet!

 

[treesmith]

I'd love to see/hear what an OSHA operative would have to say about that climbing gear!

 

[cory]

Gotta love that homemade gear!! It fit him like a glove.

Anybody else as impressed as I was by his cutting tools?? As totally cool as the first knife looked with its shape and the massive wear and use it seemed to show, I was wondering what the advantage is with having it so large, at least for the application shown up in the tree.

 

[Limbrat]

I couldn't tell for sure Cory, but it might be double edged. Perhaps he also uses the rounded side for chopping and the extra weight would be an advantage
