It must had been magic cuz it wasn't technique.

I’m glad you survived!

The George Jefferson walk at the end..🤣🤣🤣

Dull saw, man observing standing near fall zone, no one wearing any protective gear, cutting the tree to high up, wrong type of pull rope or strap (whatever that was). Easily could have been a disaster.

He had a very confident walk at the end. Lol.

Every single person I have ever met who drives that body style F-150 , especially a 2wd one , is guaranteed to be doing some half-assed hillbilly bullshit! And most of the time believe they are professionals

A sharp chain is what comes to mind. A few more ratchet straps might help also.

Sheer hackery. He had no idea where that tree was headed.

Dull saw .. no safety equipment .. cut way to high .. rope not high enough .. someone standing in drop zone .. 2wd pickup .. anything else? Where is osha when you need them? By no means should you call this video a how to do anything video. Nobody should follow anything you just showed. Lack of experience and professionalism was definitely shown on this video.

Very satisfying to see a tree fall perfect. To be honest I thought it was gonna be one of those flatten the roof vids. Perfect cut.

Damn, I was waiting for the tree to land on the house and pull the truck into the yard. Some people have all the luck!

You owe the gods of tree lopping a life. The debt will be paid soo enough if you keep this shit up.

Amos & Andy's tree service. I guess the Kingfish was filming.

Like everyone else already commented. They found all the problems. The truck pull would also have been more effective if he was pulling in line with the face cut. Notch should have been at ground level. He gave up about 5 feet of MA. I found it comical that these clowns thought they could yank it over without a back cut. I was waiting for the hinge to fail or the cobbled together pull line to snap. Even a blind squirrel finds a nut once in a while.

Whiner's. Life's risky. Went down perfect!

This was an accident. The tree accidentally fell away from the house!

First hook the line too the front of the truck! More weight, and you can see what your doing. Thanks from.St. Paul Minnesota.

Cuts faster when you put the chain on the other way.

Who the eff makes a back cut at head level? I'm surprised darwin didn't get involved in this clusterfuck.

The luckiest tree feller.

I have a big tree close to my house (very similar house), but trunk much thicker. Also, it has many heavy U shaped branches growing out and up which complicates the job by changing the centre of gravity. How to account for this?

Lol thought for sure this would end up badly with that cut. But hey.. Props.

Dere were dees tree fellers! But I only counted 2😜😂😂👍🇦🇺 Couldn’t decide if they were smart fellers or fart smellers. The latter I think.😂

He got lucky trunk didn't kick back through the brick wall

nice video that walk at the end was perfect!

oh that truck was the funny part really

Mickey mousing at its finest .

I was waiting for the barber chair that never came.

I got straight A’s in high school biology. There is no reason I shouldn’t remove my own inflamed appendix. Expensive specialized equipment. Years of experience. MILLIONS OF DOLLARS OF INSURANCE COVERAGE. If one of many little things happen to go wrong, the fact that no insurance company will ever sell you any kind of coverage, might be your smallest problem. Gotta go now. I’ve got an opportunity to navigate a cargo ship into her berth. Then I’m gonna set a lap record in a formula 1 car.

Note to cameraman: DO NOT GIVE UP YOUR DAY JOB!!!!!!

better to be lucky than good

sharpen your chain man. cut closer to the ground. change the straps you was using. if you're using your car to pull it, position your car in the fall direction. at the very least wear something to protect your face and ears. you was fortunate nothing went wrong, but a bit of basic safety would have been a good idea. job done in any case ))). but was difficult to watch lol.

Wow! thanks for sharing

how can you tell if the chain needs sharpening!

This is a switch; usually the mysterious algorithm wants to show me how NOT to cut down a tree next to a structure.

It still could fall on the house and the truck would follow.

This whole crew needs to start going to church sell your chainsaw chainsaw your strap your cable and get some tires on the back of that truck also I'm surprised you had the saw turned on and running when you're making the cut go to church you are lucky on this one geez

I have a chainsaw but would have definitely hired a professional for this one, glad it worked out for you, I guess you saved yourself a few hundred bucks.

Dull saw, cut too high…lucky

He's way over confident now...

Its not so much the blunt saw. What is happening is the line tension is trapping/jamming the chain in the cut.

Go get your truck, the chainsaw revs up, he didn't want to hear her.

And he walking away like he did something. He just don't know this video should go in the when God is on your side folder.

Lol tree plus truck plus wrong rope pluse chainsaw that could use some sharpening plus no protective gear and someone who doesn't know how to notch a tree properly what can go wrong lol so lucky

Everybody is talking about safety this and pull, that way, and, cut like this and blah blah blah. There's more than one way to skin a cat, and he got it done his way. Just because it's mostly seen done by professionals, doesn't mean a non professional can't cut a tree down. It's pretty simple physics. I'll bet some of you would go full regalia to cut down a 5 foot tree.

Whats wrong with the chainsaw? It seems to be really struggling!

Safety 3rd baby, jus send it

I don't know, I guess the chainsaw drowned out the commentary cuz I really didn't hear a thing

Was it actually faster to cut it at throat level than it would have been to cut it at a rational height? Ya got it on the ground without any issues, I'll give ya that...that's about all I'll give ya tho, lol.

Have a decent saw to start with.

that saw needs to be sharpened.

One kickback from the chain saw and the guy loses his head. The old guy just staring at the tree. These guys are not professional.

1 of the easiest tree's to climb and remove oh well let's see if we can boot it

Good stuff

Great job

Chain sounds really dull. Moral of story cut down said tree when it's 1 inch in diameter. The house foundation will love you. Way cheaper and easier.

Wow just wow total rookie fish ass luck

I hope this took no less that 10 grand lol

Everyone loves to try and drop a tree in the direction without branches or any load. If you need a truck to pull it over you've done it wrong mate. Only hire ISA certified crews.

His chain dull also

DIYW Do it yourself wrong way so we know right way?

Buy a new chain for that saw

would be funny if landed on the house just how he was cutting it out the front of it

Ya, I have to agree with the comments. Not sure why they did it that way.

Well these guys won't be around to much longer. Enjoy.

Serious critics in the comment section. It was a success. Yes, the chain was dull. But let’s not be too picky here.

Let me explain my technique for dropping a tree this close to the house. I get on the phone and call somebody who knows what they're doing. I'm an amateur at best, know how to drop a tree but some things are best left to the pros. Sad thing is, this guy will eventually destroy something, hurt or kill himself thinking he's all that.

Your chain saw is VERY dull

Rất may.

Were how tree falling 25 years no trees in 1991!

That was painful to watch

Does not show you how at all.........Just someone in the distance that i can just about make out putting a chain saw through a tree........But it does not show you how.......

WOW, that's a dull saw

This is not how to safely and properly cust down a tree. That tree could easily see saw back and pull that truck with it and land on the house. That tree probably ways about 40000 pounds.

This is terrible. A tall tree is extremely heavy and has a huge mass inertia. If it's slightly inclined, you will not be able to make it fall in the opposite direction even if you pull with an excavator. There are several videos showing this

Just say no

but that's a beautiful tree. Perhaps you shouldn't have built the house that close to the tree?

well done

Wrong wrong wrong! You take the tree down piece by piece!

The title is misleading! Itshould be, "Morons At Play!"

Wrong cuts!

No.no men

The saw isn’t big enough lol hahah

it wasn't technique.

Your just like my grandpa you are going to get hurt

It must had been magic cuz it wasn't technique.
