Looks to me his back cut was going below the notch, pinched the saw blade leaving excessive holding wood which broke off above rather then being able to get it cut through in time. If the back cut was a bit above the notch that is the norm on a farmers notch.Yes that’s a barber chair, now a question for you what can you do to prevent them?

Lots of illustrations of proper cutting techniques on the internet , figure from there whats best for you. I am not a professional logger myself. I use the farmers notch most the time , works for taking hardwood and other trees down here and i am used to it. Most what i cut down is used for firewood or trashed.

this is a better example of an actual barber chaired tree
Looks like he tried to push the tree over with a tractor, with face cut poorly done ( it closed). That would have been a great video.
Tractor operator O.K.? He's lucky tractor did not fall on him.

That’d be the other way, more likely a miss judgment of the lean because it’s got a lovely sloping back cut as well.
