I wanted to be a lumberjack...leaping from tree to tree as they float down the mighty rivers of British Columbia. The redwood, the larch, the mighty scots pine. I'd sing, sing, sing....
I have been doing tree work for 24 years.I believe the guy running the ropes should of stopped the rope just below the climbers feet,that would of cut down on the swing of the remainder of the tree.you always get bounced around a little bit when doing that type of proceedure.Also if the climber was tied in with his life line along with his buck strap on he probably would not of been flung around so much.hope his was not injured to bad.
He's not a lumber jack, or a dumb ass. He's a professional residential tree guy. He's probably a certified arborist, and he may very well own the business. When things go smoothly, the top is lowered to the ground without stopping suddenly. When it stops suddenly, it causes what is known as dynamic loading. Which happens to everyone eventually. Please pull your head out before titling another video that you know nothing about.
ppl are dicks this guy tied off his limb and it , it came back with to much speed because the dumb ass on the ground dident let enough rope out so it came back and hit the tree if any one is the dumb ass its the guy on the ground
im sorry but just me.. i think it was both faults.. if you have a greenhorn groundman running a friction device then you should allow for that by dropping a smaller load.. dropping a heavy load can scare the shit out of the new guy and cause him to lock it up too quick especially if right above a new home or something.. props for the climber preparing for the shake tho.. which tells me probably a newbe running the portawrap or whatever they're using.. glad u lived and hopefully learned man
@suffo222 the ground crew didnt let it run,, you have no clue.... climb higher?? dude had at least 60 feet of working room..obviously your not a arborist..pipe down
This guy in fact did everything right , he tied himself on , tied the tree on, turned his saw off and put it by his side and also spread his feet as he swung because he had spiked boots to help him climb. The only thing he was marked down for was not having his hat secured.
@singapore7773 Exactly!!! I have only been climbing for seven years and i have never been whipped around that bad!!! Like i said before perhaps he should get a better ground crew!!!
To be fair, if that happens to you every day, then you're an utter fool.
cracked ribs? well done, maybe you should learn how to do your job properly.
It can be helped, it's just a matter of using your brain, and not dropping a tonne of timber onto a standing stem that you're anchored to.
Anybody who thinks this is the groundsmans fault is lacking a brain cell or two. Did the groundie tie it in? or decide to lop the top out of it from there? No.
i climb trees and that was all the groundmans fault he should have let stop slowly instead of fast like he did thats what made it do that if the man on the rope did his job that wouldnt have happend
looks to me they had to control the fall of that crown, probably due to obstacles below and the groundsman let the 'top' fall to a point below the cutter before it was arrested...it jerked around more than he was expecting and his hold position wasnt sturdy enough...this sometimes happens...he's safe because of the correct kit hes got on up there...doesnt fall , and lives to learn another day...its just this job....
Your exactly correct, the ground man was a dumb ass and didn't run the friction device properly, but on the other hand the climber is not the brightest either, going up there with no hard hat.
agreed, you try to explain the process to people but they don't get it. His ground crew fucked up but just as added insight, that top was pretty big and no matter what the experience of the group crew was going to be a tough one. But... they fucked up.
@TheRocketguy27 unless there was something below that was in the way like a house a deck below or pool.... the ground man should of let it down with ease not ten feet then hold on tight....just 11 years of experience lowering for lots and lots of different climbers in my day. im a climber as well now so i know the feeling though its scary but a good rush to be shaked like that haha .... whatever man
@TheRocketguy27 r u looking at the same thing im looking at? That branch jumped down many many feet. Either it got caught on the false croch or the groundguy held on tight.
@lumberjak1984 What do you mean, if the top was properly lowered? Shouldnt the climber have lowered it properly??Which would make it his fault.....Just askin...I dont know lumberjack shit :P
That was NOT a trained feller. If that had been a USFS cutter or a Hot Shot crew, he would never have been allowed up without proper safety equipment or training. Good grief, at least this clown was tied in as well as he tied the top in.
this happens to me nearly every day, it can't be helped, there was a guy on the ground running the rope through a friction device so he can lower a branch that weighs close to a tonne on his own, the only problem is being able to let it down gently....... hence all the swing, all you can do is brace and ride it out... i've had cracked ribs and black eyes.... that's why we get paid so well
@mikkianddeclan haha, if this happens to you everyday your a bloody spastic, the reason it shook him up is that the dumbass on the ground had too many wraps on the lowering device, either you need to get a new groundy or a new job, i'd suggest the latter.
@mikkianddeclan I'm a climber and i have never been on a ride like that!!! A whole lot of swaying but i have never been kicked around that bad!!! Perhaps you should get a better ground crew!!!
@mikkianddeclan I agree that it happens sometimes. I spent 20 years performing large tree removals residentially. No cracked ribs or black eyes. If this happens to you every day, you need to learn how to use the friction device correctly, and teach your ground crew. Every once in a great while is enough for this kind of thing to happen.
I dont know shit about tree lopping but he seemed fairly switched on. He worked really fast to turn the saw off and the clip it to his belt. Then he hung on for dear life and was saved by his harness,. Good job
I don't see how any act of his could have made the cutter out to be a dumb ass. Between the stump whip and sharps banging around this could have been a widow maker. Count boobs for IQ.
Who ever titled this is the dumb ass. He is a residential climber. Probably the owner of the business. He did everything perfectly from his end. The error was made on the falling end of the work line. When lowering dynamic loads, there is a friction device which the ground man uses to bring the top down with out jerking the tree. When you do this five days a week, shit happens. Looks like a good arborist to me. Not a lumber jack and not a dumb ass.
Obviously you have no idea what your talking about when it comes to tree work. Letting it come free falling down can cause damage to the property your working on, or even a nearby house. Lowering it slowly is the best way. I agree with all the other tree guys here, definetly the ground guys fault.....
yup anyone with treework experience knows thats a dumbass groundman mistake. He should have let it run a gently slowed it down. As for the one handed saw handling. Yea your no supposed to but sometimes you have to and it all good as long as you keep focused. The next block off Id try to hit the groundman with then scream sorry.
groundcrews fault, they are supposed to let the tree run, not stop it dead after it falls ten feet, of course it will cause the tree to sway violently, so all you dumb fuks calling the climber a rookie, should try it yourself some time, and see how you fare.
To all those who think this climber is a idiot... you are wrong. His ground crew is a idiot. They were supposed to let it "run" or Basically slow it down as it comes down. Instead they totally stopped it cause the weight of the top to shake the tree violently. Notice how you hear "sorry" at the end of the clip. That was the ground guy on the ropes who screwed up.
Agreed.....not many people understand what is actually happening in this video....you can tell he's ready for a ride though cause he quickly secures his saw after finishing his cut. YE HAW
It's call tree topping. when you can't just "fell" a tree because it could hit something below it, or just need to use the trunk for other purposes, that is what you have to do. My grandfather was a logger, he said it is a fun ride.
wait... do i tie off and cut under my tie off or tie off and cut above my tie off? shouldn't matter, what could possibly go wrong anyways?

It's call tree topping. when you can't just "fell" a tree because it could hit something below it, or just need to use the trunk for other purposes, that is what you have to do. My grandfather was a logger, he said it is a fun ride.

wow I guess many people dont know shit about tree removal. Ok let me explain.
1. He is topping a tree for a reason.
2. He got the rope tied to the top, has the rope in a pulley, and has some equipment to hold the rope and slowly release it.
3. The thing that he dropped was his chainsaw, it is connected to him through a rope.
4. This is no accident, its how you top a tree with limited amount of room.
