Oh, hi. I didn't see you there. I was busy looking for some nice place to send the thread derailment, should it happen. You know us mods, busy, busy, busy.
I've been thinking about a password protected thread for thread derailments. I'd be the only one with the password.
And, back on topic,...I want to see the videos where the tree shear didn't quite cut the tree (shrub?) all the way, or the tree was too tall and fell back on top of the quad rider.
Anybody want to volunteer to try one out in real life, mistakes and all?

Pretty sure Genius. is a trained pre-fess-un-Al stunt type person, and would be happy to help with your research.
I'd do it, but I'd need someone to buy me a suitable quad for it, something about like this:

I'd be a little concerned with not cutting the tree off and riding up it, either rolling the machine or being catapulted.
Looks perfectly safe to me, if you don't cut the tree down you would be stuck to the tree so how could you possibly roll the machine over? And it has a bumper bar for your helmet to bounce off of... what more could you ask for.
The video did forget to mention that trees turn carbon dioxide to oxygen with photosynthesis... I like having oxygen around.

That looks like it was designed for a Christmas tree farm. I can see it doing a good job on a busy day.

Of course...googling I find ATV-X which I was thinking was the original DR copied...but noticing their odd URL I eventually came up with a phonetic pronunciation that made me wonder if the whole thing was a gag that took on a life of it's own...

Sorry DSS, I didn't mean to include with with the dumb cows, I was talking about a different cow on the forum. Cows seem to like to play follow the leader, do you play?
Website is fine but may be a little graphic to some. No kids unless they like McDonald's.

No offense taken here. I get called worse on a daily basis.
That lightning is certainly hard on livestock.
