Thank god for the "3120XP Husky Chainsaw"!!! Where would this beautiful ancient forest that has managed itself for millions of years before man ever even step foot on this earth be with-out it!?
@vincent7520 - Of course we can! It's not like we need this planet to survive or anything! By the time we've fucked it right up and can no longer breathe because we've desecrated every last rainforest that sucks up all the carbon dioxide we'll have discovered another planet with a similar environment and how to get there so we can infect and fuck that one up too!
@bcmalreadythere ah ! then again we're not over with what we've got here : I just learned that global warming affects the permafrost which by melting releases CH4 (methane) which in turn contributes to global warning by a 8 (or 12 ? don't remember) time factor bigger than CH2 (carbon dioxide) : not directly related to tree cutting but somewhat close.
I'm almost 64, my daughter is 21 and every day I wonder about the shit I leave behind me to the ones I love.
@vincent7520 - Have you seen the documentary "HOME"? Is that where you learnt about the permafrost? My greatest concern is indeed if every-thing these suggested "expert environmental scientists" are saying is based on what is really taking place, how and when mother nature will restore her balance! One thing is for certain: She will not discriminate.
I love tree cutting : now we succeed to cut down in 5 minutes what took hundred of years to grow.city
When we replace all those unsightly trees by freeways, skyscrapers and big city blocs lighted by nuclear plants I will be happy : who needs nature anyway ?… The concept of nature is so backwards …
Yes McDonalds, jumbo planes, nuclear plants and gas masks : that is future !…
The tree was already dead from the fire, it would've fallen on its own in a few years. It had to be cut down for safety so it wouldn't fall on anyone. Of course most people don't know that and think that the faller was destroying habitat.
Do you have a link to a an assessment that determined that these old eukalyptus should be felled? Had their phloem been boiled? it looks like a s pretty intense fire moved through there. Have fires been suppressed there lately?

could have just left it there. unless it was near a campsite or a popular place. the only people that walk through the middle of the bush are deer hunters, and if it was in national park not even deer hunters would be in that particular part of the bush.
@irrops And just incase you didnt notice, The jolly swagman ran out from under that tree just intime. Just another factor proving that its a coolabah tree =]
@henryzimmer It was a bush fire their clearing out, and bush fires actually help regenerate a forest or any ecosystem. It allows over grown forest to be reborn, ashes add nutrients to the soil and the clearing of trees, allows more species to receive more light and space, in turn allowing the forest to thrive
@brade07 Agreed, still I'll have you know that trees (especially the ones this size) resist pretty well to fires on their basis. It's good to have regeneration of a healthy undergrowth but often trees are unnecessarily taken down after such fires. Btw this tree must've been worth a couple of bucks too, so that makes these big decisions easier sometimes wouldn't you agree?
I fucking hate old tree´s!!! Its like it didn't understand, that it would be cut down to be Ikea furniture! Really hope you just cut it into firewood. What I really want tot see is a world of Pine forests in mm perfect lines, maximum 10 years old because I cant wait any longer. And then we all will have Ektorp sofas and cofe tables! Fucking big tree! Its like its supported a ecosystem or something like that!!???
@henryzimmer i agree, fuck old trees, i like to go up the bush and ring bark em, then i get a bottle of roundup mixed with my piss and give them a nice drink, its like giving mother nature a nice firm front kick right in the snatch.
That's funny man, I've done that before when I've been bored, you're just running in and rattling the monkey bars to get some excitement going. If you really do feel that way about trees, you have something wrong with you but I suspect you couldn't give a damned about trees one way or the other, I think you just like to bother people. You should become an anarchist if you're not already one.
@Replicachile1 The Forset Fire has burned the center of the Tree out and in return has Killed the Tree its safer to Remove the Tree then to Let the tree stand waiting for that one good Gust of wind to come along
@TheSediqullah Do you realize that they are removing these tree"s that have been damaged to keep them from falling on some shit for brains such as yourself????!!!!!!!
Thats a good size root flare on that one. Sometimes I bore in to check for rot and do a partial cut on usually the last root flare so it will break instead of it getting a long root pull flying around. More rare but have seen a root pull 10 feet long,,,,run lol
And I once had a birch tree chase me through the forest lol will tell ya about that one some day !
Hey marciii411 ,, No Felling is not a word (but you can make up any word you like:)
Fell is past tense for fall... Felling is a name of a town in NE England, in Gateshead unitary authority, Tyne and Wear; formerly noted for coal mining. Pop.: 35 053 (1991)
I thought a Feller was a slang for a Fellow who Falls trees, Most fallers dont care as long as you pay them for their work lol
Another great video. Unbelievable damage caused by that fire. It's always a shame to see a big tree go but it needed to be done after the damage the fire did to it.
It must have been a very unsettling time working in the clear up team.
dezenas ou ate mesmo centenas de anos de desenvolvimento na mata reduzidos a uma moto serra nas maos dum imbecil que em poucos minutos poe a vida que nos mantem vivo ao chao.
@andreas28mw2 Why are you calling him a stupid HUMEN?? WTF is a HUMEN?? Your ignorance speaks volumes. That tree was fire killed... NEVER to be alive again. Salvaged in time for lumber to be made from it. Why is this such a complex theory for you? If dead things are beautiful to you, then you should be trolling elsewhere.... And consider spell-check, STUPID HUMAN!! LMFAO..... Nice video, BTW!!
@singapore7773 And for every large tree you take out, many more will replace it. Soon you will have 6,000,000 too many, and a further increase in fire intensity potential. Australia now has millions of hectares of volatile dense regrowth and scrub, often adjacent to regrowth on marginal farming land and bush suburban areas.
I know why the fires are so bad these days. And it's got nothing to do with global warming. It is due to poor land management. And modern forestry is just that.
@104bigTruck hippie? LOL i kill my farm animals since 12, but i respect them... you look at this like a form of entertainment... my comment meant to show some respect... but i had to take a comment from a dumb fucker (probably white trash) that only knows what is footbal beer and american idol
@dimitridabrowski You have no idea what you're talking about. They're cutting it down because it's dead. What would like them to do, leave it there and have it fall down on someone at a later date?
@semtex84 He missed the point of felling dangerous trees in the aftermath of the horrific Vic fires of February '09. They had to be felled in the interest of public safety and asset protection.
Has anyone else wondered why we love highly flammable eucalyptus? Sure native trees are not bad to look at, but they mostly have a fire driven ecology, thus can and do endanger life. Why not plant less flammable tree species?
@pauloz386 that's not a plantation for a start and most of the older trees would be scarred by fire from previous burns. Not burning of causes the litter to buils up around the base of the tree and when it does catch alight, the tree becomes dry-sided and eventually diseased and dies anyway. Regular light hazard reduction brns would solve this problem, BUT the Green movement has almost put a stop to common sense in this area and so does the EPA who will put restrictions on burning off.
@forkdriver500- The whole reason why eucalyptus are now the dominant species is because of fire. They are built for fire, fire kills off their competition, so allows more room for even more flammable eucalyptus. Over in America where they have been introduced they refer to them a gasoline trees. Logging sometimes convert what was a wet forest to a dryer one, thus promoting further fire hazards. Burning off only mitigates fire threat for only 3 or so years. It just clears the way for more gums.
@pauloz386 Are you on a farm somewhere? Or would you rather an English countryside ecology?.
Much of Australias forests are Euc/Acacia woodland and have adapted to dry conditions over millions of years. True. My main arguement is that not enough is done to ammeliorate the potential fire risk in the off-fire season.
Eucs need fire to open the seed capsule. If anyone burns repeatedly, they end up with an open woodland, as Eucs don't like fire when in the juvenile stage
@forkdriver500, Yes I do own a farm, and I do also own a forest which is on the southern boundary of my farm. Eucalyptus are great to look at, I love the smell of their leaves, make great timber, but mate given the frequency of dickheads lighting fires on high fire danger days, I'm going to clear most of the gums leave a patch here and there, and yes I'm planting probably some European species, sure if there wasn't so many fools running around with matches I wouldn't need too.
@pauloz386 I worked in Forestry for nearly 37 years and know the consequences of dickheads lighting up. We had a fool with matches light 11 fires along a 15k front one night and it took a week to get them out.
@C4FreeBird your retarded Would you rather have it come down safely like that? Or would you rather have it split and fall on you and your activist friends while your drooling over how big it is. Its been burned so therefore its not safe anymore... idiot
In addition, the humans actually are helping the forest to renew itself. Tree owners and managers are often reluctant to remove large trees because of the backlash from pro-tree people (like myself), but when they pose a danger to human life, the must be pruned or removed, with justification.
Now i understand the point of your view. But things are not the same in Turkey where i live. They make it legal to chop down forests to build settlements. And fires are burnin our forests when it's summer time that's why my words were sharp in the beginning.
Yes we did remove large dangerous burnt trees but also the local government authorities replant new trees to offset the removals. Last year they replanted 60,000 new trees.
Wouldn't it have been dead from the fire? Extreme heat? Not good for tree? The fact that Australian forests are renewed naturally by fire? Eucalyptus seeds are released by heat into the new bed of ash?
You might be right about the fire system. But it's nature. Nature can renew itself but how about humans. Humans don't think of helpin the forests to renew themselves. And Trees are the lungs of the earth so the longer they stand the better it will be.
With 2 trees like that I would have wood for 2-3 winters.

@semtex84 He missed the point of felling dangerous trees in the aftermath of the horrific Vic fires of February '09. They had to be felled in the interest of public safety and asset protection.

Has anyone else wondered why we love highly flammable eucalyptus? Sure native trees are not bad to look at, but they mostly have a fire driven ecology, thus can and do endanger life. Why not plant less flammable tree species?
pauloz386 1 year ago
@pauloz386 that's not a plantation for a start and most of the older trees would be scarred by fire from previous burns. Not burning of causes the litter to buils up around the base of the tree and when it does catch alight, the tree becomes dry-sided and eventually diseased and dies anyway. Regular light hazard reduction brns would solve this problem, BUT the Green movement has almost put a stop to common sense in this area and so does the EPA who will put restrictions on burning off.

@forkdriver500- The whole reason why eucalyptus are now the dominant species is because of fire. They are built for fire, fire kills off their competition, so allows more room for even more flammable eucalyptus. Over in America where they have been introduced they refer to them a gasoline trees. Logging sometimes convert what was a wet forest to a dryer one, thus promoting further fire hazards. Burning off only mitigates fire threat for only 3 or so years. It just clears the way for more gums.

@pauloz386 Are you on a farm somewhere? Or would you rather an English countryside ecology?.
Much of Australias forests are Euc/Acacia woodland and have adapted to dry conditions over millions of years. True. My main arguement is that not enough is done to ammeliorate the potential fire risk in the off-fire season.
Eucs need fire to open the seed capsule. If anyone burns repeatedly, they end up with an open woodland, as Eucs don't like fire when in the juvenile stage

@forkdriver500, Yes I do own a farm, and I do also own a forest which is on the southern boundary of my farm. Eucalyptus are great to look at, I love the smell of their leaves, make great timber, but mate given the frequency of dickheads lighting fires on high fire danger days, I'm going to clear most of the gums leave a patch here and there, and yes I'm planting probably some European species, sure if there wasn't so many fools running around with matches I wouldn't need too.

@pauloz386 I worked in Forestry for nearly 37 years and know the consequences of dickheads lighting up. We had a fool with matches light 11 fires along a 15k front one night and it took a week to get them out.

@C4FreeBird your retarded Would you rather have it come down safely like that? Or would you rather have it split and fall on you and your activist friends while your drooling over how big it is. Its been burned so therefore its not safe anymore... idiot

In addition, the humans actually are helping the forest to renew itself. Tree owners and managers are often reluctant to remove large trees because of the backlash from pro-tree people (like myself), but when they pose a danger to human life, the must be pruned or removed, with justification.

Now i understand the point of your view. But things are not the same in Turkey where i live. They make it legal to chop down forests to build settlements. And fires are burnin our forests when it's summer time that's why my words were sharp in the beginning.

Fair enough. I have learned something also. Thanks for the chat!

Yes we did remove large dangerous burnt trees but also the local government authorities replant new trees to offset the removals. Last year they replanted 60,000 new trees.

@jimihendrix1967
Wouldn't it have been dead from the fire? Extreme heat? Not good for tree? The fact that Australian forests are renewed naturally by fire? Eucalyptus seeds are released by heat into the new bed of ash?

@drdendr0
You might be right about the fire system. But it's nature. Nature can renew itself but how about humans. Humans don't think of helpin the forests to renew themselves. And Trees are the lungs of the earth so the longer they stand the better it will be.
