  • Dear Santa,

  • Why The He'll Would You Cut Down A Perfect Tree Do You Know How Long It Takes Trees To Grow That Big Well About 30-40 Years & You Juss Gonna Shoot It Down & Some Birds Probry Live On That Tree You Fuckin Bold Head Mothafucka

  • Good video. Come check out my gun videos on my channel if you guys have time.

  • I certainly shall not dress up as a tree before attacking a machine gun.

  • ha even mythbusters could not cut the tree down whit the machine gun they said it was impossible its a waist off good tree to prove it

  • @one1939 Snow brings down plenty of trees and that has a lot less force than a machine gun. It all depends on the tree.

  • The tree will fall faster with tracer round.

  • @Redwing9107 Tracer may set something alight but it has much less force so therefore I doubt it would be quicker at knocking a tree down.

  • Good to know if an army of trees ever invade Britain!

  • Only 470 bullets? wow I thought that was a lot

  • problem termitas?

  • ppuufffff ke perdida de dinero y demas esto no es machine gun de hendrix

  • only four hundred? lol

  • tova e ma6ina za ada

  • @90129081 you have probably never fired a gun in your life.

  • @windson7 ehh ya i do i fire a m16 ak but not a gatling gun because of the stupid recoil

  • @windson7 ehh ya i do i fire a m16 ak but no a gatling gun

  • @90129081 You know, firing a machinegun is a lot different from firing assault rifles.

  • @windson7 ohh MR Professer in machinegun

  • @90129081 at least i dont troll on other peoples videos like you do.

  • @90129081 Really? So you want to warp your barrel which affects accuracy? You want to waste your ammo? Don't blame me if you can't shoot straight and you are out of ammo when you really need it.

  • @90129081 Might be, but beleve, in a real life combat cenario where you would fire like crazy you would be dead, and the gay would live.

  • That wasn't really "quick".

  • Then they wonder why all the forest disappered in England....

  • hell ya i need some tree movage!!!

  • what a waste of a tree, you fucking morons

  • oh wow..now i know u cant shoot continusley because it will over heat and effect accuracy :0

  • MaSheen guns...

  • people are just too dumb. we should give the trees some guns...

  • "just" 417 bullets...

  • British never liked trees. First they cut all trees in Ireland. Now they killed beautiful tree for nothing in Britain,

  • how did i get from bear gryll eating maggots to this?

    watch?v=QuB3kr3ckYE

  • Quickly? Motherfucker took an hour to drop that tree.

  • I'm a lumberjack and I'm OK.

  • Suceessss!! And they have fired only 479 bullets :@.OMG you call this a succes ???

  • So, the next thing is:

    Will it blend?

  • @sooupdragon No it's okay if the English Fo it, it's just when other countries do it that it's wrong!

  • wow that guy has horrible aim

  • Why don't they use a chain saw instead of wasting good bullets???LOL

  • @ahmeeeeeeeeeeeed Its because they wanted to test out a statement made by Maxim, who stated that his machinegun could saw a tree in half.

  • 0:43

    "Now, all they need is a machine gun."

    That's always my problem, too.

  • only 470 bullets.... wow tis is truely incredible.... haha jk

  • they picked up the most beautifull and freeist tree they could find, basterds

  • wow, they must be so proud. good thing they were wearing camo, or that tree might have shot back.

  • @gallawayj fking redneck american

  • I'd just use a saw,but to each his own

  • Male Bird : "Honey, I'm going to work, see you at 6."

    Female Bird : "Okay dear !"

    * army men come *

    * army men leave *

    *6:00 Pm*

    Male Bird : "Honey I'm home ...... NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO !!!"

  • @ePexion It's like the bird equivalent of 9/11.

  • i got hit by 420 bullets and didn't even ask for a band aid. thumbs up if you didn't ether

  • only 420 bullets on a tree... only 420.... srsly?

  • So with global warming, was this a really good idea, to take out a tree and thus reduce carbon absorption?

  • i want one:)

  • 416 people are trees

  • use a 50 CAL!!!!!!

  • holy fuck!!

  • The MG'er here must be having some really bad thoughts at the moment. Stuff he remembers.

  • LETS GO CUT DOWN SOME FUCKIN 'TREES WITH MACHINE GUNZZZZZ!!!!!! BIEYAAHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!

  • poor tree..

  • why dont the use a minigun??? lol

  • @HIPPOPONANOUMOUS why?because mythbusters used one to chop a tree.this means you don`t need a minigun to chop down a tree

  • @HIPPOPONANOUMOUS Portability, ammo capacity, etc.

  • @HIPPOPONANOUMOUS they are british, they cant afford one.

  • @WaagooshTheRedFox well they can but only for the goverment wich dosent need one

  • @0815tdl i was joking.. well, trolling really.. i have no problem with brits who dont have a problem with me.

  • @HIPPOPONANOUMOUS Probably they didn't have one. Anyways, if it's a question of speed, why don't they use a chainsaw? =)

  • schade das der baum nicht zurück schiesen kann

  • @Schellemann123 ghut

  • Well... You know who to call when the trees rebel...

  • i saw this on tv a long time ago

  • @mahmutmaha shut up hippie. your gonna be dead by the time "mother nature" is detroyed

  • JUST 470...................

  • @DS2110ful i know right? just 470....i feel like that tree held its ground for as long as it could lol

  • with a proper MG he would have cut that tree down much faster.

  • I'm surprised they didn't get busted/or were able to score a machine gun, ex military or not in England. Last I checked the gun laws were getting a bit more extreme by every few years.

  • national geographic should be renamed national disgrace. a lack of respect for nature is the root of mans problems.

  • @mahmutmaha yes but guns are cooler

  • whats the point ? 

  • He ONLY fired 470 bullets..... give me 3 .50 cal shells and i can do it in less time

  • WTF that was like a 100 year old tree ????

  • @kingdingaling9214 who cares?

  • @morbidadams obviously me

  • @thebipolarpolarbear stop talking to yourself please... im over here just so you know..

  • completely pointless.

  • Alright I get it you don't like the cutting of the tree just get over it why don't you comment on a video that your comment really matters

  • the tsunamis and twisters, isnt gonna stop if humanity countinues with this, mother nature gets pissed off.

  • give the man a chainsaw

  • I love how the tree fags are crying over this

  • And they fired JUST 470 bullets ?

    Or use a couple swings of a axe

  • @SkiMaster999 Only a couple swings? Maybe if you have super strength.

  • JUST 472 ass hole u have to pay for this

  • momy can i go to his house ?

  • To bad they didnt use an mg42, it would have taken a few seconds to cut it down.

  • @durgymp or a day.... apart from MG 42 is old and not used anymore it has a lot of recoil

  • @outlawed26 LOL, OLD? It may be old but it's still used by many armies even today. This piece of crap is not (and this one is much older). The recoil is just as low if you do the same with this piece of doodoo, a tripod.

  • @durgymp em ye its old it was used by the nazis in world war 2 and that happened more than 60 years ago. and as far as im concerned armies dont use it anymore. If you find any evidence that it still used please share it with me for I might be poorly informed

  • @outlawed26 Google for "mg-3" It's practically the same weapon, only slightly diffrent caliber.

  • I can't believe national geographic let them waste a tree for this program segment. Shame on them!

  • pauvre arbre qui navai rien demandé

  • I hope that tree was dead..

  • good but "trees dont hit back"

    5) punch ur self in your face for being stupid like this

    If you can do all of this without breathing you're a god

  • Seriously? Test that crap on a straight tree, not some leaning bollocks.

  • Oh lovely..they wrecked a tree which took years to get that size *and* they put about 11 and a half pounds of lead in the woods. ( Assuming they were using standard period appropriate ammunition which would have been 174grn / 11.3gram bullets x's 470..well, suffice it to say my math is correct. ) I enjoy antics like this on Mythbusters, but there was really no science here. These guys just shot up the woods.

  • Lol people are like "why da fuk you shot tree O-o"

  • die nature die!

  • this is gun is from the world war 1era..... why wouldn't they use a more modern weapon

  • im sorry but this was a very nice tree.

    shoot on enemys/other humans or on a bullseye...

  • sigh, why didn't they just test it on a man instead of a tree?

  • @RadiohEraser Not to be "trolling" on your "joke", first of all, bark is harder than flesh and bones so if it could go through that, then it could eaiser pierce through flesh and bone. Secondly, it would be unethical to test a powerful weapon on a human being. There are maniquins as a substitute and paper target. But again, any "trolling" on your "joke" is purely unintentional. I am simply stating facts.

  • @RadiohEraser it was called world war 1

  • @RadiohEraser coz u didnt answer their call

  • @RadiohEraser because that would be murder, idiot

  • @RadiohEraser nooo no no not a man justin bieber! :D

  • DONT READ THIS CUZ IT ACTUALLY WORKS.YOU WILL GET KISSED ON THE NEAREST POSSIBLE FRIDAY FROM THE LOVE OF YOUR LIFE,TOMORROW WILL BE THE BEST DAY OF YOUR LIFE,HOWEVER IF U DONT POST THIS TO OVER THREE VIDEOS YOU WILL DIE WITHIN TWO DAYS.NOW THAT U STARTED READING THIS DONT STOP.THIS IS SO SCARY!POST THIS TO OTHER FIVE VIDEOS IN 143 MINUTES.WHEN UR DONE PRESS F6 AND YOUR CRUSHS NAME WILL APPEAR ON SCREEN IN BIG LETTERS.THIS IS SO SCARY BUT IT REALLY WORKS.

    (this shit is so gay)

  • @ hermitmason111 LOL 89.99 at lowes xD

  • Why kill the tree? Not cool

  • "maximise his chances, with a methodical aproach based on years of experience"

    hes gonna shoot a tree.

  • Just get a chainsaw. 89.99$ at lowes.

  • just nuke it next time

  • I just waited for the ents to come and kill that f*cker! 

  • All that tree did was gave us O2. Go shoot a polar bear or some endanger animal. ;)

  • Yeah, you can't shoot full auto and overheat the gun? Get a mini-gun! :)

  • No trees no O2. people that mean kill trees are good are idots no iam not a Fucking Green Peace :D
