So close to horribly wrong

[kruege84]

I don't make it around to AS very often anymore, mostly because life seems to have gotten too damn busy.... Anyways, I wanted to share this pic with you guys. A friend had a tree fall in her yard in the storm yesterday and had a couple friends clean it up for her... Nothing happened, no one was hurt, but my jaw dropped when I saw the picture. I told her to call me next time she needs a tree cleaned up...

Yea you wouldn't find my head that close to the bar of someone else's saw.

The thing that always amazed me about those saws is they have a throttle lock -on switch That just don't make sense if they want repeat customers.

I wouldnt put head near it either... but to be the devils advocate just a bit, in their defense the chain is stationary and you can not tell if the saw is running. If it is running its still a little dumb but not like the guy was cutting with a running saw and he stepped in front of him
