    That’s yet to be seen. Must’ve been pretty bad off for a life star call.

    Yike.
    Sobering.
    How quickly a score or felling can go very wrong.

    A local tree climber here fell 80’ a few weeks ago. Last I heard they were going to pull the cord on him leaving behind a wife and 2 young kids.

    Oh man, prayers for sure!
    Yes sir, this a dangerous hobby/job for sure. Even the most careful can be injured. Heads up at all times!

    I didnt see that on the news. A good reminder that what we do is dangerous. Im sure a lot of us here have seen crazy and/or stupid things done with a chain saw. (i have) Dont know if that was the case here.

    Work safe out there FHC.
