    I've watched their channel for some time. A member here suggested that I put it in it's own thread.
    Just shows how dangerous some situations can be. This man was a true professional.
    :(:(:(
    PLEASE, PLEASE be careful, brothers and sisters...

    Terrible to see this.
    I would always get a laugh when they referred to him as "Inbred JED"

    Man that was hard to watch. I've been watching their videos for a while now. You just never know when your time is up. RIP Jed.

    With all the experience in the world, even at the best of times a tree/branch can still fall on your head and kill you...RIP

    I'll reference the firewooding in the dark post for a minute. If you're felling in poor light or the dark, you're gonna be this guy sooner rather than later.

    Not until this morning. I found out later than the rest of you guys. As I had stated in my post this really struck a nerve.
