Natural selection has failed us.

[firefly308]

Cant really say what im thinking ! I laughed and laughed......i love fast forward,,I just pictured them in beaver suits!!!!

[dittomama]

What a hoot ..

[giel97]

Id say get some more practice whit that saw, and leave your chains at home cause they were the cause of your saw gettin stuck cause the tree had a funny ballance...keep up the good work and dont get killed whit those circus acts

[MrMeanderthal]

enough to give an old faller like me a friggin' heart attack..

[ronatholl]

i sincerely hope no one copies these two idiots

[Coffeeforevah]

sure this isn't James & Jimmy?

[sisbogle]

two of the dumbest people i have ever seen cutting a tree

[joshuarugg]

ummm two words DUMB ASSES. when a tree is leaning like that you cutt it from the bottom. as you have learned it will pinch your saw if you cut from the top.

[wjjmlg]

what a bunch of stupid idiots!!!! why don't we walk under the tree a few more times to see if it will fall on us and kill us!!!!!!!!! clearly not a licensed arborist.

[mnez19]

you really need to get rid of your saw before you do something stupid, like cutting another tree.

[dirtbike5100]

nice one. entertaining with it all sped up :)

[805ROADKING]

@dirtbike5100 Thanks "Lil Buddy"

[vidman008]

I hate that when the saw gets wedged in (Pinched ) in the wood.... I usually go way overboard with cutting relief slices to stop that from happening... Then when it does happen, I am able to get my pry bar into one of the other 8 slices I cut... Great Video.. I always like seeing big wood cut up... Thanks for sharing....

[805ROADKING]

@vidman008 That's a pretty good idea, I'm gonna have to try that. I usually have a spare chainsaw to get out of a pinch (Literally), but I loaned it out.

[biggie579]

@805ROADKING An easy way to stop your saw from getting pinched is to saw half way or so down threw the tree.. then saw UP threw the rest of the way.... thats how i do it with all the wood i cut iv been cutting wood for years..just a tip id thought id throw out there

[tommmmmmmmx]

dammmmmm man we got that here

[805ROADKING]

@tommmmmmmmx I think everybody got hit with something this year!!

[More350Power]

That is one big ass tree..... those saws are nice, had to cut up some cherry trees that were downed, like a hot knife through butter until you get the saw stuck, LOL

[805ROADKING]

@More350Power Yeah, that saw has been getting a real workout with the weather we've had around here lately

[MrHotwheels1979]

Great vid, This stuff is awesome!

[805ROADKING]

@MrHotwheels1979 Thanks for checking us out Johnny!!!

[Chooman69]

cool vid

[805ROADKING]

@Chooman69 Thanks Choo!!

[IHcubcadet]

Great job guys. I know how hard that work is. We cut down a pine about twice that size. we cut the notch and then the back cut, and nothing happened. So as we were standing there wondering what to do a small breeze came up. So we watched it slowly fall, as we crossed our fingers that it would go in the right direction. Long story short, it fell just where we wanted it.

[805ROADKING]

@IHcubcadet Thanks, We weren't sure what this was gonna do since it was still under tension from both directions.

[IHcubcadet]

@805ROADKING Yea they can be pretty unpredictable.

[ferevatogether]

My fav pasttime gettin the saw stuck in the the tree priceless

[805ROADKING]

@ferevatogether I wasn't sure if we were gonna get the tree down, but I was sure we would get that saw stuck!!

[200mmonster]

lol love the high speed

[805ROADKING]

@200mmonster Thanks!!

[wertheroriginal]

Great video! Is the "old lady" the one that made you get the hearing protection?

[805ROADKING]

@wertheroriginal lol!! No that was my idea, after we couldn't hear anymore.

[handclamp]

The video made it look like cutting a tree up was easy, but I know how hard you worked to get the job done. I have a Sthil model 44 magnum that saw is a real animal. Nowadays its about all I can do to work with it for more than a hour or so. When I was a bit younger it was nothing to cut fire wood for 3 to 4 hours with that saw.

[805ROADKING]

@handclamp Thanks, I had a Commercial Homelite with a 4 ft blade like that, weighed about 50 lbs. I gave it away, it was more work trying to hold it then it was taking down a tree.

[groutaone]

enjoyed this, kinda funny

[805ROADKING]

@groutaone Thanks!!

[TheSassytiger]

i love a man with power tools ;)

[805ROADKING]

@TheSassytiger LOL!! He's single ☺

[TheSassytiger]

@805ROADKING lol...so am i ;)

[RamblinAround]

You managed to make me a little nervous, but you got it down in the end. That's a real nice chainsaw you have there.

[805ROADKING]

@RamblinAround It was a little risky, but we took our time and tried to be careful.

[racer4560]

haha I love it, thanks for the airtime, not very professional but it got down and no one got hurt thats what counts! :-)

[805ROADKING]

@racer4560 You did a fine job Lil' Buddy. You make me proud of ya!! Take care of that chainsaw, Your not done yet!! ☺

[mbyr31]

Man thats a helluva tree! I laughed so hard at the fast forward!! LOL..

Hopefully there wasn't too much damage bud.

Great vid

[805ROADKING]

@mbyr31 Thanks Matt, Nothing really got damaged. Thankfully it was way in the back away from anything.

[daddytech]

shoulda cut a notch about half of the way through the bottom of the trunk then another notch in the top and it would have dropped. and if you'd have left the chain on and pulled a truck or something back in the back yard you could have pulled the rest of the tree out too and then cut the whole ting up and been done with it all in one fell swoop

[805ROADKING]

@daddytech I wish I could get a truck back there, but with the pool, sheds, fence and other trees there just isn't any room.

[daddytech]

@805ROADKING how about you tie the chain and pulley to the base of the tree then and stand aside to pull the rest of the tree back down from where it came again to cut it up then? i am all about the sthil saws too the tree company i used to work for used only sthil and i found out why, you pretty much have a lifetime warranty on everything on that saw. they are the ONLY ones that do that too.

[805ROADKING]

@daddytech There's still about 40 ft of that tree tangled among alot of trees, maybe someday it will fall in a storm, but it not in the way. If it does fall I will probably just leave it because it's just an unused wooded area. I've never had any problems with Sthil saws. Just change the blade and keep using it.

[daddytech]

@805ROADKING oh yeah the sthil's rock for sure, one of the best saws i believe i've ever put my hands on. even stacked up next to the husqvarna's and they are supposed to be the cadillac. guess you'll have to just keep your eye out then when you go back to that part of the property, might be a headache waiting to happen for someone lol

[gokartmaster123]

@daddytech hasqvarnas are shit the brands you want now for chain saws and leaf blowers are stihl and echo those are really the top brands right now..

[kookiemoose]

who knows when that one over the pool might come down via mother nature. that's a pickle for sure. nice video

[805ROADKING]

@kookiemoose I agree!! I thought it would have come down already, each year it gets more top heavy and leans more over the pool. The Ole lady hates it. It's a Black Cherry tree and drops purple berry into the pool all Summer.

[Noyjeetut]

That's some might fancy cutting.

[805ROADKING]

@Noyjeetut Yeah, the Kid's a natural!!!

[GerryK61]

Great video!

Love the fast motion.

[805ROADKING]

@GerryK61 Thanks, That was an hour worth of video cut down to 10 minutes, I didn't want to bore you guys too much!!

[edzgarage]

That sure looked like an accident waiting to happen! lol That was one tough tree.

[805ROADKING]

@edzgarage That's what Brian said before we started. he said " This is gonna turn out either really good or really bad".

[231flash]

Top the one by the pool and use some ropes for tension to pull it away from the pool.

[805ROADKING]

@231flash I only have a 24 foot ladder, if I can borrow a 40 ft then maybe we could do something.

[jasongiddensviper478]

That was like watching monkeys use tools for the first time. ROFL!

[805ROADKING]

@jasongiddensviper478 lol, Good analogy!! ☺

[fordfanatic100]

that tree hanging over the pool wouldn't be too difficult to drop if you do it right. Either pay someone to climb it and take it down in sections. Or, use a chain/rope and have tension on it in the direction you want it to go, then just notch it and do your back cut. It'll go almost exactly where you want it.

[805ROADKING]

@fordfanatic100 I might give it a try, I'm to cheap to hire someone. I'm still trying to talk my Nephew into climbing it. There is plenty of room around it to drop it in sections.

[fordfanatic100]

@805ROADKING I helped a professional drop 2 trees one time we used the winch mounted on the front of his GMC 3500. he was cutting,of coarse, and I was operating the winch. I already had some tension on the cable when he gave me the signal to pull. I started pulling and the truck started moving forward. It was in PARK with the brake set. The tree was not moving. he had to notch it a second time, even then the truck moved a little but the tree finally came.

[SmallEngineMechanic]

You know its serious when you gotta break out the chain hoist.

[fordfanatic100]

@SmallEngineMechanic I've seen it so bad that it takes 2 saws to clear a tree that is leaning like that. the first saw got pinched, so the guy got out his smaller saw to come up underneath the first one. he ended up getting both stuck, and broke the smaller one in two. some how he managed to get the tree dropped though.

[805ROADKING]

@SmallEngineMechanic Yeah I thought it was gonna be easy, but there was tension coming from both directions.
