[QUOTE="CJ-7, post: 2866961, member: 2281"] Let's give him credit for at least wearing ear protection, heavy gloves, safety glasses, (I think), long pants and he seemed well braced against a heavy branch. Most homeowners don't go that far. Ladder didn't look like it was tied to the tree, he wasn't tied in and the lack of experience with swinging branches looks like what got him. I don't think chain saw pants would have helped here. Anybody ID the saw? Looks a lot like a Stihl, something your average homeowner doesn't own. At this point I am sure he wished he would have called in a pro. [/QUOTE]
