[lawranced1]

No Chain brake used, no helmet worn, COWBOY!

[lawranced1]

Nice use of the Chain brake! no helmet! COWBOY!!!

[flamedrag18]

shitty made video, it blocks the cutting of the notch with text, horribly made.

[cementhauler99]

good god a 5 year old could do a better job

[transmonglified]

my god what an idiot,do not listen to him

[luc649]

DO NOT LISTEN TO HIM ! read all the comments first and see,all his other videos are just as bad or worst and I cant believe that after over 2 years of neg.commets nobody or HIMSELF has taken all his "how to kill yourself" videos off youtube, I have been flaging all his videos that's how bad they are.

[the1great98]

There is no possible way, in concievable shit hell, that this tree wants to fall where he says ,because of that dumb cut he demonstrates.

[madsppp2000]

what the fu........???he is an idiot....dont try this at home.....notes how he removes the peece of wood in the start of the clip....no break on the chain or enything....its not easy to do the dishes whit only 8 fingers.....

[jnewton177]

first big mistake the notch is about 45 degrees which is to small it need to be about 70 degree opening and like most of you have said helmet and face mask are the min safety things required before you even start expert idiot more like

[seizetheweakened]

this guy is the expert village idiot

[benthetreeguy]

His ear muffs won't help him much when limb comes down and lands on his head.

[sk8nislife]

does not know what he is doing.

[iancubrez]

heh.... what a monkey.... get him out from the woods.... before he hurts himself... :))

[acetreemaster]

nice tree video you got ! good to see more tree videos always being put up

[hammermyhead]

Oh I thought all the comments might be a little harsh ...then... I watched the vido...yeah someone need to tell this guy not to call himself an expert and NEVER try to train anyone... please.

[woodyate]

what % should th back cut be? of dia of course

[cutterschoicenotmine]

youtube is a joke. i've filled for this and the other 'expert video' tree felling videos to be removed. nothing. they would rather chase up people with copyright infringement to stop themselves getting sued then protect the general public from this idiot.

file for the video to be removed. thats the only way it will go.

[lifakc]

he is idiot

[mmaufc01]

okay for one, ur box way to small, and people like make my insurance increase every year. you cut nearly half way into the tree so thers no hinge! just beacause you can go lowes and buy some chaps and a chain saw does not condisder u a pro.

[DikkeTrip]

Hahaha, hes so pro!

[rider660r]

Oh STFU Mesasola you live in a house? well then its made of wood and you had trees killed to make it and again STFU. In my career of logging and tree trimming,I have KILLED :) 10's of thousands of trees.This guy has a general concept but it is nothing to train ppl with.each tree is differnt.1st thing you must do is look the tree over.Something I havent seen in any videos on tube from "so called"experts.

[rider660r]

Oh and you never cut from the downhill side if its possible.

[mesasola]

I don't think it's fun to cut trees!It's a crime!!!!!!!!

[Dani444marlin]

Beware of this guy

[grumplepig]

Moron, looks like everyone knows how to cut down a tree except for you. STOP! before you hurt someone.

[DramaTubeFag]

I started laughing then I really busted a nut when I saw the rope.

PLEASE DO NOT LISTEN TO THIS SO CALLED EXPERT AS HE IS DANGEROUS.

[ProArboristInPA4U]

This man obviously has no idea what he is talking about! There is entirely too much to know about dealing with large trees to get into here, but I can tell you that there is no way that you could possibly watch this video and have the knowledge required in a situation where accuracy really mattered! DISREGARD ALL POOR ADVICE THAT THIS GUY HAS TO OFFER AND CALL A PROFESSIONAL ARBORIST...YOU CAN THANK ME LATER!

[mrgmacdee]

this guy's a fucking idiot. he must got his chainsaw ticket in a raffle.

[Ogsonofgroo]

This fits in well with your stump shot with too small face cut, angled backcut, and almost no hinge, surprised you're still walking after 30yrs, of DOING IT BADLY!

Yikes!

[treeclimber1]

first of all this guy should stay away from tree cutting let alone train.t squares r for building so leave them there. anybody that knows anything about saws knows there is a line of sight on the saw. also just because you notch it in a certain direction doesnt mean its gonna go that way. if the weight isnt right its not going without a felling wedge or rope. this is why people should leave tree cutting to us. treeclimber 20yrs plus franklin nj

[magnabank]

Hey Finn, why haven't you defended yourself yet you f**king pussy??? That wedge is a joke. And who grabs the bar/chain of a running saw?? are you kidding? You had to go back and re-cut the notch b/c you didn't do it right in the first place. Please post here and tell us whats up DICK! WEASEL!

[WILDWRACK]

This guy is scary!

[cleveroonie]

you are a complete 100% dick

( proffessional arborist 17 yrs)

[oldbearswitch]

Egads, why is your facecut so closed-shallow, once the hinge breaks control of the tree is lost!!

Why didnt you set the chainbrake before reaching in to remove the facecut "wedge"

you dont show them how to determine EXACTLY where to set the corners of the hinges.

Go read professioanl timber falling, by Dent. Then remove all your videos before you kill someone.

Folks, tree felling is not somethiing best learned from video! especially this gentlemans vids.

[magnabank]

You are sooooo right.

[r1chard25556]

under cut should be out of stump not tree less risk of kick back from butt
