Holy moly there are some real geniuses out there. Lmfao. What a tool. What an utter tool. Neighbor is a tree guy too. Lmfao. Timestamped link.
Lmfao. You can have the Stihl, you can wear the helmet and the fancy pants.....but that don't mean nuttin'.
I feel like basic tree pruning should be a skill taught to every single person in high school. Along with basic car maintenance (changing oil, checking tire pressure, changing a tire) but alas this is not so.
Im not going to lie, I laughed at most of the video. Hopefully no one was too seriously injured. They must of missed common sense when it was being passed out.
There are like 50 videos or something and there are definitely some where someone's face got ripped off or they broke a few bones or had concussions. I shake my head most of the time, especially when the clip starts with someone on a ladder. You know exactly what's coming next and I wonder in amazement.
I agree completely on financial my 17-year-old daughter who I know has more common sense than most of her friends. Has no idea what fed/state/FICA On her paystub means or how to fill out a 1040ez I don’t want or trust anyone else to teach firearms safety. Especially in a school environment
I remember not too many years ago when a local fire department was called to get a man out of a tree. He cut a limb, limb gave way and the butt of said limb pinned him against the tree. Killed instantly.
I had a coworker get killed. I cut a tree down for his dad once, so I guess he figured it was something he could do too. He had a rope attached to a tractor and the back cut must not have been deep enough, or maybe no notch, I never heard what went wrong. The tractor flipped over on him end of story.
Thats sucks, lot of people don't think about that, ya a little compact tractor can help pull a tree over, but if you hook to a bigger tree, if it goes the wrong way it will take the tractor right with it like a toddler throwing a toy and there ain't anything you can do. So you got to be careful.
There was one where a big limb hits guy directly in the face knocking him off the ladder. Dont know if he died but was seriously hurt. I watched it once...only once.
