Just wait til you see the stump grinding next week. Really cool discoveries. Thanks so much for watching and commenting.

@@GameofTrees So the angry guy gave you permission to remove his tree?

' You were right two trees.' Two trees that are mechanically linked and counterbalancing each other. Don't bet on a jury not finding against you if you destabilize the other tree. Not any different than if you do something else to your property that destabilizes and damages someone else's property. Even if you leave the root system, you've still obviously removed the huge weight that worked against it, and counterbalanced against the other tree. The 'two trees' idea is about having two trees merely grown together, and they're considered separate for the purposes of killing one and removing it. That legal idea isn't likely to save you if you crash that other tree into someone's house when there's an obvious mechanical danger brought on by removing only one side. Just think of it this way, if you cut that side down and it eventually fell on and killed someone, it wouldn't be 'an act of God' or similar. It was something that was or should have been easily foreseeable by the arrangement of the trees, and you didn't take appropriate measures. Fine enough that it was fixed, but it is certainly not the 'not our concern'. Even if you have 'the law says it's separate trees for purposes of killing our tree', you can still be held responsible for 'blatantly negligent' in other aspects. 'Obvious, basic, mechanical problems' created falls into those other aspects. Don't expect a jury to actually let you off if you do something this ignorant and it causes someone else harm. And you can bet somewhere in the contracting/licensing etc, there is some mention about creating undo risk for others or similar ideas. My first thought if someone did similar next to me would be to have my lawyer look at getting their license yanked. If they're legal, they almost guaranteed signed documents that basically say 'we won't do obvious crap that might put other people at risk'. Basically any licensing body will have that sort of CYA wording somewhere, so they can blame the licensed party if they harm someone's person or property.

That’s funny 😃 might work, but if the trees have 10 feet of clearance they say, “we’ll put the lines back up if the tree falls.

@@GameofTrees It works as intended. If the tree's height is higher than the powerline and it's within falling distance of touching it, they discourage any Paul Bunyan-like behavior.

My local power company, Excel Energy, sent two trucks out and dropped the service line to my dads house when I told them that I was going to cut down a tree that would have to fall across the lines. Once I dropped the tree they hung the service lines back up. Didn’t charge a thing. The reason for taking the tree down was storm damage. But I don’t know if that made any difference.

Lol. Thats a great idea about the chain saw gift. Quick respionse. Right.

I called about this very issue with a tree that is over the power line from a pole to my house as well as one near my neighbors. I’m fact, the power pole is 20ft from the tree and the power company refused to do anything about the tree. I guess they don’t care about the transformer or the pole which leads to the elementary school and the entire block. 😂😂

It has not returned void on me.

You are 100% correct. Sad, I know. Good people always bear more of the burden, but that will never change.

And... an even better man, took the high Rd and came out looking like a champ. Says wonderful things about his character.

That would linger on my mind an heart to not pay you something for this work.

Our neighbour actively avoids human contact. Our maple was WAY over her yard. Guy came, cut it back from within our yard. Pulling all debris back to us. She skulked in the kitchen watching. There will be no talking! I still felt obligated to do the civil thing and remove the branch.

That’s an awesome story I am sure to re-tell😃 thanks for that!

wow

Wow

Oh wow... That's crazy bruh

Thanks Mike! We post every week:)

Check out the stump grinding vid, really cool discoveries kzfaq.info/get/bejne/fp-pYLOInNqXn40.html

I know! Right? 😀

Came in here to ask if anyone else thinks maybe that tree was mocking it's property owner!!?? Lol

59:; Spot on ! I wondered if any one noticed that and came to the comments to see if any one did. Not so much angry face, thought. More of a comical one mocking and laughing the angry neighbor to scorn. Seems to say "See, I told you so !" PS The "angry man's" nose is indicative of people like that !

Thanks, Nancy !

Thanks Charles!

😂 you and I cut two hours out of the video😂

Thanks Darlene!

Thanks Christine

Thanks Marshall

I thought it look like a happy troll :-)

New boots! That’s my story, I’m sticking to it😂😂😂

I have rather large feet such that it I can press on the brake and depending on how squishy the pedal is my foot will also hit the gas

👍🏻

What to do? 😃😃😃

Thanks Jean.

Thank you, Kathryn!

Thanks Dorothy!

Leg is fine, the day is returning well for us:) all is well!

😂

I’ll remember that😃

Same here. It's a pain to switch out when it's raining and muddy, but still rather do that then deal with smashing the truck.

Thanks, you might also like this about the stump kzfaq.info/get/bejne/fp-pYLOInNqXn40.htmlsi=Fmnok5gVVtBs6ffb

They’re happier right now:)

Thanks, yes, that’s my story :-) I’ve actually have one arborist collaborating with me, saying it took him a couple of weeks to get used to those boots. :-)

😃 well I’ll be going back to look now.

No doubt Haix don’t drive well.

Indeed! Use the right tool for the job I always say. Goes for everything in life. Lol

Until I accepted responsibility:)

Thanks

Thanks Randy, did you see the face in the stump at the end?:)

You might have missed this one:) he was upset because he wasn’t getting his tree taken down for free. What I said about the tree ended up being proved true, and in the end, I took his treat for free to free him from his bitterness :-)

Also this one. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/fp-pYLOInNqXn40.html

@GameofTrees I just went back and re-watched the "Harrassed by neighbors demanding tree removal" I stand by what I stated. He you said at (10:07-10:17 in that upload) that "...nothing I do to this tree over here is going to do anything to the tree that's remaing" but it did and he was right. I get that the guy is a cheap ass and inconsiderate but that was exactly what he was afraid of.

@@Tibor716it didn’t do anything to the remaining tree removing the other side. Nothing at all. So the angry customer was incorrect and the tree was still standing for him to remove it over a year later so the guys foresight was wrong.

Yeah, I was secretly hoping I’d get to take this down, here’s the stump video that had some interesting fines as well. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/fp-pYLOInNqXn40.html

👍🏻

Thanks William!

We were doing some tree work for an old guy years ago and his neighbor had said we could use his driveway as their backyards were on different streets but they backed onto each other’s. As soon as we were driving into his yard,he came out yelling and calling us names. We parked the truck and tried talking to him and he threatened my ground man with violence,we laughed it off so he walked inside and called our company yelling at the receptionist telling her we were threatening to beat him up😂. It got worked out but the poor old man that hired us felt bad because the guy did tell him originally that we could use his driveway but then flipped the other way when we showed up 🤡

Thank you Rose!

Yeah that was crazy:)

Glad I’m not the only one😂 I love the earlier commentor though, saying that a lot of old people hit the Excelerator instead of the brake😂😂

kzfaq.info/get/bejne/rp2fY5t535fSn6c.html&feature=sharec this was the only video I could find on your channel and it’s funny of all the comments on this video that has nearly a quarter million views I don’t recall a single one critiquing it in your manner. Thank you for noticing what no one else did I’ll see if I can’t improve :-)

😃 thanks Muriel

👍🏻

I just took some down on my land this past winter

That’s awesome Mary! Thanks for sharing that.

That’s great that your still getting after it.😃

Pieces were too short.

Thank you!

We have a job board with magnets of all crew members and trucks and equipment. One magnet says Kevin’s Gear😂😂😂 I didn’t make that magnet, but I earned it😂

Just wait til you see the stump next week:)

😃

No need to wait until next week, it’s up 😀 kzfaq.info/get/bejne/fp-pYLOInNqXn40.html

We’ll look here:) kzfaq.info/get/bejne/fp-pYLOInNqXn40.html

😃

Thanks for coming along, we post every week

You need to watch this video of the stump. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/fp-pYLOInNqXn40.html

High likelihood of cracking and it was two trees:)

😃 Thanks for watching Molly.

I’m telling you😃

This coming Sunday at 5:00 AM the stump grinding is posting. It’s a clinic on tree physiology 😃

Well, buttered bacon since I’m eating carnivore lately 😂😂😂 very creative, thanks for chiming in😃

Love Monty Python

Absolutely it happens but it is rare. “Reasonable degree of probability” that is what we must live by in the world of trees. With a lot of rain, and a wind out of the east over seventy miles an hour and maybe it happens. Not likely, and I was right😃 kzfaq.info/get/bejne/iOBkjcWDzNK3m30.html here’s a walnut with a south west wind. Very rare, but devastating.

That was custom done by a friend of ours. My wife Lisa wrote the lyrics.

The face is cool

Calculated assessments and years of seeing the variables….and guessing wrong😂 thanks for watching and for the comment 👍🏻

​@@GameofTrees That drive way would have tree branches sticking out of it if I tried this haha, and thanks for replying. Cheers and take care

Thanks Cindy

My client had a rectangular, the corner was a triangle, the angry neighbor has a square:)

Thanks! Here’s the stump, it was fun for me:) kzfaq.info/get/bejne/fp-pYLOInNqXn40.html

Ha 😃

😂

I was reading the comments to see if anyone else noticed the face as well, before I mentioned it😂😂plain as day

😃 till 11. Yes he still got a free ride but I got the video :-) and thank God I didn’t break my leg.😃

I didn’t see either until later, no top view:)

Yes there was a top view. @@GameofTrees

Norway maple

Really happy with that little stump grinder and the mini’s

That’s about the extent of the value, I think it went to someone with an outdoor boiler.

Thank you Joey! You don’t know how comforting a comment like that is after someone said, “don’t worry Kevin, lots of old people hit the accelerator instead of the brake.” 😂😂😂

Call into the office 866-596-5396 Name, Address and Size and I’m sending you a T-Shirt:)

@@GameofTrees 😂😂 awesome! Thanks a million! I'll likely call tomorrow.

@@GameofTrees they are really fantastic boots though. I think you'll love them even more once they're broken in

👍🏻

That or he somehow hacked off a bunch of branches himself:)

I know, right? Just an inch…😃 thanks for the admonishment:)

No doubt, because impetuous people will😂😂

Just wait till you see the stump video tomorrow. I hate to say I was right…😃

😃
