The only problem I can see is that they ran out of tools. One more piece of iron might have solved the whole thing.
Yup, an excavator or D4 would have knocked it over no sweat!
I see lots of problems
1 they don't know what they are doing.
2 the jack is a toy.
3 they cut too far and it came back and wants to go the wrong way and is holding by a thread.
4 no back up rope on it for a plan B if something went wrong like it did.
5 They were stupid enough to video it and put it on the net.
My reply was meant in humor. Yes, that picture is a **** show.
It's obvious, they don't know jack.
Jack was a good dude he just had no plan B or A possibly but gets extra points for multitool uses
WTF!!!
We need to see the "before" video with the intact tree up to the point the saw got pinched. Maybe a shot of the whole tree with surroundings before, and the siminains who did/doing the carnage.
Besides what Wolf said.........Why two back cuts , neither one matches up, which one was intended felling cut? I'll comment on the jack also, adequate to lift a riding lawn mower, another orange sticker on that, another rental?
The campers axe is a sorry excuse for a wedge. The little nail puller?
And finally...........Home Despot rental Dolkita saw, hopelessly pinched.
edit: one more thing, there are places that rent 80-90cc saws, if the idjits who did this , and rented one of those to cut a large tree.......

Fat pry/rock bars make an excellent lever........
Reason #8 why not to buy a rental saw LOL
Im guessing the road and traffic was a hindsight

A proper back cut (singular here) nearly meets face cut to form proper hinge wood.
As pictured one (top?) back cut, makes/meets face cut on one side, badly misses on other, and is never completed. The 2nd (lower ) back cut is curved, and never intersects the 1st back cut to "fix" it and form a hinge.
Tree's lean seems to be into the street, same as intended(?) direction of the fall. At least no cars parked there.......
Failed internet facetiousness/sarcasm.
What I was trying to say was that they may end up thinking they're making a face cut or back cut but making the opposite because they don't know "**** from shinola."
And the result might be the loss of life or limb
Traffic smaffic.
His car or bicycle isn't parked out there or any rentals.
Whatchu got against rentals, Willis?....
He did try to not drop it on the house.
I fail to see the problems here
Understood.
Forrest Gumps mamma warned him about people just like this

I want to see the video of how this got fixed.
Homeowner dude is probably lucky that saw got pinched. Lord knows what would have happened if he kept cutting.

When your bar acts as the wedge holding the tree back from swiping you......you got problems!
It would have went the wrong way if it didnt already.
