  • day 23 and still looking for mynameiswaidey's comment

    food: low

    status: tired

    virginity: abundant

    still with hope, though.

  • Fail

  • Ease up on the hate, anyone that knows anything about rigging knows it had nothing to do with the chainsaw, and everything to do with the groundman not running the rope. The only thing the climber did wrong was not communicate with the ground, I have blown tops bigger than that with no shock load at all.

    This is why experienced groundmen are important.

  • @Rachis33 Well said. Even the best of us can have an off judgement episode. Besides, apart from being rattled the guy was fine.

  • how did that even happen?

  • I FIRMLY BELIEVE THAT PEOPLE BEING AFRAID OF CHAINSAW ACCIDENTS SHOULDN'T BE HELD BACK FROM USING THEM, IF YOU ARE AT A LABOR POOL AND YOU HAVE NEVER USED A CHAINSAW AND YOU GET A REQUEST FOR A JOB INVOLVING A CHAINSAW, GO FOR IT! 8 BUCKS-10 BUCKS AN HOUR, DON'T EVER REFUSE WORK, ALWAYS USE A CHAINSAW EVEN IF YOU HAVE NEVER, JUST LIE AND SAY YOU HAVE, IF SOMETHING GOES WRONG, THAT'S LIFE!

  • @MattL883 This is the dumbest fucking advice I have ever heard. "Always use a chainsaw even if you have never, just lie and say you have, if something goes wrong, thats life". That advice right there will get someones leg cut to the artery and have them bleed to death on a hill somewhere. That isn't "life" if the person doesn't make it to tell about it, you fucking idiot. NEVER lie and put yourself or someone else in danger, it isnt worth it, and it sure as hell wont be worth 8-10 bucks an hour!

  • @jgm1234567 DUMB ADVICE? NO STEP UP AND BE A DAMN MAN, AND USE THE CHAINSAW. I WATCHED THIS ASSHOLE LAST MONTH TURN DOWN A 10 DOLLAR AN HOUR JOB 6 HOURS REQUESTING SOMEONE WHO'S SKILLED WITH THE CHAINSAW...THIS GUY ENDS UP REFUSING THE DAMN JOB! CUZ HE TOLD THEM HE NEVER USED ONE, OR USED IT SPARINGLY...WTF...THERE'S CERTAIN THINGS IN LIFE YOU LIE ABOUT...AND THATS ONE...IF U HAVEN'T USED ONE...LIE SO U CAN GET THE WORK..COMMON SENSE!

  • @MattL883 That "asshole" was a hell of a lot smarter than you are. And saying "lie so you can get the work" is common sense is like saying being ugly is sexy. ITS BACK ASSWARDS! You...yes you...are a fucking idiot. Jesus christ, dont ever post this stupid shit again.

  • @jgm1234567 HE WAS A FUCKIN IDIOT CUZ THIS GUY WAS IN HIS 20'S AND NEVER USED A CHAINSAW OR LANDSCAPED...WHAT A FUCKIN LOSER SO BE IT IF UR ALMOST 30 AND HAVE NEVER DONE CONSTRUCTION OR LANDSCAPING, BUT ALL U HAVE TO DO IT LIE AND SAY U HAVE EXPERIENCE, I ALWAYS SAY THAT EVEN IF U HAVE NO EXPERICE, LIE AND SAY U DO SO U CAN GET THE JOB...HOW IS THAT STUPID???

  • @MattL883 Hey moron, you just called a guy a "fuckin idiot" because he was in his 20's and has never used a chainsaw or landscaped. There are damn near 7 billion people in this world, and I would be willing to bet my life's savings that less than 3 percent of them have used a chainsaw/landscaped before the age of 30. No one is a loser for not having used one. And its stupid to lie to an employer because 1) its illegal. 2) In situations like this you could put someones life in danger. Grow up.

  • @jgm1234567 YOU HAVE TO TAKE RISKS IN LIFE IDIOT, THIS GUY PROBABLY DESPARATELY NEEDED WORK..AND HERE HE TURNED SOME DOWN??? THIS WORK WAS OFFERED TO HIM...6 HOUR AT 8 DOLLARS AN HOUR THAT'S 48 BUCKS IN HIS POCKET HE COULD'VE HAD IF HE WOULD'VE JUST TAKEN THE TIME TO PRETEND LIKE HE KNEW HOW TO USE ONE...JUST LIE SO U CAN GET THE DAMN JOB THIS IS A TOUGH ECONOMY..UR THE IDIOT FOR ENCOURAGING THIS GUY.

  • @MattL883 You see this video? The blow-hard in the video got pretty damn lucky. But shit like that, and WORSE, happens to dumb-asses that lie about their skills. As a business owner, I sure as hell wouldn't want some lame headed prick lying to me about his skills, and hurting himself, or others as well, costing me unemployment and putting me out of a few workers, making it harder for my business to survive. If everyone did this, businesses wouldnt be able to make our economy RUN...IDIOT.

  • @jgm1234567 And THEN where are the jobs? Didnt think of that one did ya?

  • hey....

  • That guy was up way to high not to be paying attention... Fail...

  • That was pretty scary.

  • This was the prequel to The Happening. 

  • He got a Hat, hes professional.

  • Thats why his sheriff

  • And that folks is how you make a poop.

  • I'll bet he toffeed his pants.

  • :S

  • damn. How not to perform a successful snatching technique.

    He is supposed to dig in irons and push himself away from the tree with locked arms and ride the swinging tree. Bad form.

  • @rampagerogers what went wrong??

  • Epic fail.

  • Wow. I watched some guys do this to a pine tree in a neighbor's yard a while back. They, however, did it without incident.

  • @CanItAlready yeah not for me foreign american man fell right off pine tree smacking into my apartment

  • that is funny

  • If only the were trained properly: wumbus.com/Chainsaw-Safety-Bas­ics-An-Experts-Perspective1618­.html

  • thts what my dad used to do, he once slipped and his chainsaw cut him straight down the fore arm, leaving a big scar

  • LOL! WATCH HIM HOLD ON!

  • @mynameiswaidey BAHAHAHAHAHA SOO FUNNY HE NEEDS A CHANGE OF UNDERWEAR AND A NEW SAW NOW :)

  • @DexterousPython BAHAHHAHA his like swinging around on the tree, i laughed sooo hard.

  • @DexterousPython what did the chain saw soil it oil or something?

  • @DexterousPython why would he need a new saw?

  • @aperson350 cause it fell like 40 feet down to the ground and probs smashed some old bag granny down there

  • @DexterousPython no that was his hard hat look closer, it falls from his head, his saw is on a rope

  • @aperson350 holy shit it was too hahhaa jokes on me

  • @DexterousPython  haha way to go lol

  • its not an accident lets just say he's an idiot!

  • Chico was in a hurry...big mistake, not matter how high--of low--off the ground you may be...

  • in a farytale he get covert in tar;))

  • Looks like the part he cut off was attached to a pulley with a line to the ground. I think it got snagged on something and stopped the top from a controlled fall, letting it swing instead.

  • Is this the video on what not to do ?

  • cooo

  • im in training to be an ariel arborist. last year i saw a good friend make the same cut, oddly enough a very similar type of tree, Pinus strobus (white pine), a sudden gust of wind came and blew the top over him. pinching his helmut to the point it cracked down the center. he is was ok tho. just a few cuts and bruises and freaked out.

  • sketchy.

  • LOL

  • Tree was like "You cut me down, I'm taking you with me".

  • you can hear him screaming from blocks away ha ha ha!

  • the tree butcher needs to change his pants.

  • Good thing he was wearing a safety harness.

  • If a tree falls on a baby in the forest, and no one is

    around to hear it, is it still hilarious?

  • @TenthPrestegeisaFAG whats a baby doing in the woods xD

  • @TenthPrestegeisaFAG thats the stupist thing i ever heard.. theyr working and people would hear that. so why would they wanna go to the tree with a baby anyway lol

  • Did he crack his nuts? XD

  • man im saying this to appreciate for the pencil u gave me and the paper thanks bro!

  • look close, his pants change color

  • HAHAHAHA

  • woops!

  • ROFL! ahahahahahah

  • ...fail

  • but what happened to the guy under the tree

  • thk god 4 his harness!

  • He used safety gear and harnesses, they all worked, and nothing fell, what's idiotic about that?!

  • Hold on little girl its gonna be a bumpy ride.

  • lolol

  • hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha­hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha­hahahah

  • He used safety gear and harnesses, they all worked, and nothing fell, what's idiotic about that?!

    Tying falling part to the trunk wasn't an accident, in fact, it looks like he didn't tie it tight enough and it fell further down than he planned.

    I live in the tropics and coconuts that high are normal around the suburbs. Watching one being cut next to your house is an unnerving experience. One of those sections can easily punch through a roof. Wish they had the gear this guy has.

  • did he forget he was chained to the bit he cut off ? Wow that's stupid

  • @CHISTYFIVE you go and do his job, you wouldnt even last 5 minutes!

  • THAT´S SOOOO FAKE!!

  • It looks to me like the idea was to "top" the tree without having it crash down on the things below (like houses), so with that in mind, that looked like a scary ride...

  • I seriosly would shit my self that high

  • all the people saying hes stupid or why would he do that? u just are idiots it takes alot to do that my uncle does this he broke his nose from a tree branch if he didnt have his helmet he couldve died its not at all funny

  • I guess the "chainsaw accident" is when some fellow tries to catch the chainsaw he just dropped. 

  • man his breakfast is going to taste great tomorrow

  • he accidentally the whole thing

  • Not very funny at all.

  • wow i thought he was gonna fall that guy is crazy to do that oh yea and that chainsaw looks like the one in l4d2

  • My Heart Was Pumping

  • LOL!! What a Dumbass!

  • wow o ma godd

  • Is it just me, or is that is a strange place to need to cut a tree...

    The delayed *gasp* is funny.

  • Guy yells "HIII!!!!"

  • ive been a tree climber now for 6 years i work for a big company in australia good on you mate an if any 1 is to blame its your ground crew but these things happen some days

  • Been there . Always remember three points of contact at all times . When climbing or cutting. Always use humbolt cut when topping .Prevents top from sliding back!

  • @Truklodyte fascinating.

  • @Defenseman619 If you cut a top to big it will fall to fast.You cut clean thru with out leaving holding wood you loose control.You cut corners on safety you will loose.When I mean 3 points of contact .Three fisical body parts two feet one hand.Chainsaw is on a lanyard let it drop.Always use reverse wedge(humbolt)cut. That prevents slide back.

  • Kozak

  • @AWL3rd DUDE DONT ACT LIKE YOU KNOW WHAT YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT.

  • @FoundationsBreak I was a tree topper for many years.If you cut wrong and it falls to quickly like this guy did you go for a ride.

  • @AWL3rd It wasn't a huge head to snatch. The fault was obviously with the groundsman who you can hear yell 'Sorry' as the accident unfolds. It is of concern to hear that so many arborists think that it was the fault of the climber. Maybe his topping strop was a bit long, and maybe he shouldn't have taken so long securing his saw, but the groundsman didn't let the rope run. It just stops dead a third of the way down the tree. A basic rigging technique.

  • damn thats not even funny that must've bin scary as fuck dude could've died I mean what would you do if you were in a situation like that theres really nothing that you could do

  • @AWL3rd I agree with your stand point, I would fault the person running the lowering line as well though that section took a hell of a lot of slack out before it even got caught.

  • did he die

  • Ha ha, you are all so funny. There is no god, but there is no convincing you of that fact anymore than convincing the Elvis fans the king is dead.

  • omg!

  • WTF thats hurt

  • thou shall not take the lords lame in vain

    Ephesians 4:29

    "Do not let any unwholesome talk come out of your mouths, but only what is helpful for building others up according to their needs, that it may benefit those who listen"

  • seriously? wtf gramma go to church and pray with your weirdass because obviously you faggot ass people arent getting anything else helpful done in the world

  • @djfantom205 Did you just call god LAME? Isn't that blasphemy?

  • @djfantom205 TWO WORDS: HAIL SATAN...

  • wow a few mistakes made there fella's for a start really should not of tryed to snatch so much off, 2nd the length of rope used in the snatch should only be a few feet alowing it to fall so far is why there was so much bounce!. But lucky for him he did not slip outta of his climbing irons. Still i do find it abit funny

  • yeeeeeeee haaaaa

  • That does not seem funny.I would have crapped my pants,if this would have happened to me.

  • HAW HAW

  • There's no way he could of prevented that anyway.

  • @pendejadafcc If they let the top run 20 feet or so and then slowed it to a stop it would minimalize the shock.

  • stupid mother fucker I do stuf like that all the time

  • @Smarderthenu LOL? Pfft... Your a fagget.. you prob dont even get outside =.=

  • shit happens

  • Looked like maybe to many wraps

  • @eaglecasey1 Or they just didn't let it run...

  • oh sheet

  • Looks like fun to me! = )

  • XD

    xD

    xd

  • Its hard to tell which videos have more armchair experts, the sniper vids or the treefelling ones

  • @anthony9thompson Funny you say that, after I finished my enlisment and came back home I went back to work for my fathers tree company.

  • LOL now you can make a vid with guns AND chainsaws. Should be good

  • Everybody mocking the guy in the tree, it's the grounders fault that this is happening!!!

  • *GASP*

  • I've been there, done that! But ,I was tied in at two points. Plus my groundy was watching what was going on . So I didn't fly all over hell! The rope crew should have let the top come down further, before they stopped it.

  • shit happens XDD

  • i wouldnt be up there, not in a million years!

  • Balls of steel...

  • lol sucker

  • Some people got more chainsaw than they got sense : )

  • You got guts to up there

  • lol

  • that happens everytime huh, lol

  • Lol

  • yea i hate loggers! all they do is cut down trees to make furniture in my home, paper and tons of other important shit....dumbasss VVV

  • GO DIE!

  • first off he is not a "logger" he is a tree trimmer removing a possible dangerous tree to the near by homes . second,you only hate him because you don't have the balls to climb 80ft up with a running chainsaw on your belt .

  • damn that was a close call. and eveyone on here talkn shit about that dude climb a tree and do his job for a day, takes balls to do tha shit

  • not really a "close call" that happens every time you top or remove a heavy leader off a wood like pine or spruce . it's quite a ride but safe if your tied in right

  • @snowman11686 I would say it's less about balls and more like the lack of an education and ability to do something more productive.

  • @Defenseman619 It takes skill and years of climbing to do it right .Geometery helps to with angles and where to cut.Any fool can pickup a chainsaw it takes intellagents to run it without loosing a limb or killing yourself.

  • @Truklodyte "Goemetery"??? "Intellagents"??? You just proved my point. Go climb a tree while the grown ups do something important.

  • @Defenseman619 ha lack of education, hell i know people who got college degrees and hate their "productive for society jobs". this shit is a fun way to put in a hard days work

  • Agreed! I love walking into the store with sawdust all over me and watching the yuppies look down on it. I just smile and wave, smile and wave! Money can't buy happiness , and they're shit out of luck when they run out of people to hire!

  • @snowman11686 Thank you! I do it everyday.

  • omg i wonder how you felt lol

  • This is what happens when you foul your line instead of keeping it clear..

  • do you hink you are a fucking lumberjack or something? shut up you breast.

  • Guys its not his fault, the navigator on the ground makes a wrong decision

  • OH Shit!

  • hehe noob

  • stupidty of mankind

  • thats why children ,they say dont cut down trees

  • that`s why you should change your normal toilet paper on that called "eco".
