Tree vs Fence

[Yobeat]

My boyfriend decided to cut down a tree in our backyard himself. I figured I better film it because no matter what happened, it was going to be amazing. I was right!

Oh and yeah, that rope wasn't tied to anything, I guess he over estimated his strength slightly.

Wow!

 

[ECRUPPRECHT]

ummm did he make his backcut before the notch???? im so confused at some peoples logic??

 

[derwoodii]

Brilliant you must be so proud,,, never mind I sure he has his own better skills.
This one will be a tale to tell your grand kids eh.
Luved your filim and music work, black n wites so in these days.

Good videography. Bad arborculture.

 

[Yobeat]

It's funny because usually he over-researches everything. This time he decided to wing it...at least it made for a funny video and didn't fall on the house. The fence only cost about $8 to fix!

Although comical it just shows that some people should just not own or use chain saws.:deadhorse: Have to admit though your video taking and making is excellent☺

 

[Yobeat]

Don't worry, we'll call the pros next time for sure!

I suppose if I can't say anything without insulting anyone I should say anything at all... so I'll just keep quiet.

I loved the video! If I may ask, have you considered "Benny Hill music" and and in that style, perhaps cutting in some replays in 2x speed ? I love Benny Hill stuff. :yourock:

On a positive note, if that tree had fallen correctly it may have landed on your boyfriend. He looks to be worth more than $8. Maybe take down the fence panel before you tackle the next one leaning on the fence?

I liked the music and the B&W. Harold Lloyd was one of my favorites, and she's captured that look/feel very well.
Boyfriend is in good company. Here's how a paid Craftsman spokesman does it:

The bob vila decorative notch cut is one of my favorites.

That sounds funny for sure! Maybe if i have some time I'll do a reedit.

vincem77 -- I'd hope he would have moved out of the way, I sort of like him.

:hmm3grin2orange: Good one!

Thanks for the vid. I'm sure he's planning to keep his current day job.......

You boyfriend beats Bob in arborculture. Bob beats your boyfriend in safety apparel and plaid flannel!

I laughed the entire time, excellent video... just about everything was done backwards except the tree when it fell, it fell forward, towards its lean...
