There is a bit more detail to this story. (Not the video,the lightning struck tree Rich is talking about) This was not an inexperienced climber,definitely a series of poor choices that led up to this devastating catastrophe...

🤘

I thought both lines were just locked off,otherwise one totally could have ran the tip tie straight down,right? Weight would just transfer to the butt tie....

Very well said Butch,I have moved out of the impact zone last minute multiple times. You gotta visualize the reaction to your actions!

lol, like others said,good on him for posting the shit out there. Now other self taught at university of YT may learn from this stuff. Give the guy a break!!

When Murph posted the butt tye video I watched it,then I went to work and at one point did a tip tye&butt tye on a4-500# eucalyptus log. I asked my brother,who was on the ground,what he thought (if it looked ok). He said "ya if i wanna get smacked by the log." Phff dikhead,I couldn't get the...

Sometimes its easier to hold the saw in position for humbolt style face while in the tree,fatigue,position,angles. I'm not trying to say the instance on the video @ 11:00,but just sayin....ime

That's not very good.... Lucky in so many ways on that one.

The love tap! Badass Willie👍 how did you make that video like that?

That fat one bout half way through the video ended up going sideways on em,wonder if that was the plan all along

There is a stipulation in the books about being tyed in 2wice,funny to see them going over the "activity hazard analysis" sheet. Good video,gritty for sure lol

Thanks Jed. @ sotc - this tree was in nevada city region but I am in san diego,urban forestry,little sledgehammer is typical felling/wedge driving tool, the axe is the groundies tool for chasing and choppin roots. Mine is small enough to use aloft and has a tether for securing to saddle.

Can't say that i do,i just look at the cut itself, hammer was to drive my wedges in case required,i just set a good size stick near just in case I needed. The tree was weighted more towards the person filming but i don't think i even ended up using the wedgies and got it to swing where needed...

Yeah the audio pick up was great!! That and not another sound for miles,kinda sounds light lightning imo lol. There were solar panels a garden and a generator near ,it had to fall a certain direction.

I ended up finding my hammer in the undergrowth....https://vimeo.com/130928816
