Brutal to watch. He had his hands backwards the whole time too.

Ha. Ain't that the truth.

I've never run a crane. Guess I was thinking it operated atleast somewhat like a yarder? While it was balanced, sort of, seemed like you could've been cabling out for all it was worth. I don't know if booming down would've helped at all too? Seems maybe not? Trying to keep it all steady and...

Wow. Seemed like the operator just froze up? Would a computer have shut the crane down?

It looked to me like the truck didn't even really try to pull until the tree was already lost. It also looked like it was the stretchy rope that lost it for them(atleast Of factors that can be seen). The truck just sat there and the rope stretched back enough to lose the tree is what I saw.

Yah I would disagree that I would look like a dangerous dumb ass doing other types of 'stuff'. I find quite the opposite to be true, that I am overly cautious when doing things outside of my normal activities. Atleast until I'm satisfied I understand what the dangers and risks are. I don't just...

Holy f-ck! That was brutal!

Well something wasn't quite right, that's for sure.

All speculation without seeing the stump.

It looked to me like that house got forked up. Musta sucked, bigtime.

It looked like it surprised a few people. That was some gnarly cutting/rigging. Looked like zero concern for ppe, I understand that's normal some places. Shaking boy seemed overly excited and the camera man seemed like he had it all figured out and was wanting to let everyone know by the end.

For real? Is that the owner at the end? Are all those guys milling about employees? And the cameraman?

Wow. That guy who took the vid seems like a real gem too. Must be a sizeable company. Seemed like there were endless guys standing around shaking or was that twitching. Gong show.

Awesome. The ladders already bent. He must have 'experience'. Lol.

I cringed as soon as that started and he reached with the saw like that. Man, a lot of people shouldn't be running saws.

Oh man. That neck kickback was crazy lucky.

I haven't seen a tree scaffolded but I've seen a few crazy ladder scenes. Lotta logging heritage round here, gotta puff the chest and cut it down yourself. I've found it more with the old timers myself. The new gen logger packs a big lunch, cause the day can get long in that cab.

I woulda called it a pollard and charged double. Wow!

Surprising the tree had gotten to that point with presumably no damage.

I don't think 'hurt' was a given but put out there as a possibility.
