I still enjoy watching these videos even as I sit here as a paraplegic from a 50-60 foot fall. I was a climber for 15-20 yrs. Lived a fast hard life full of drugs and alcohol. The money was excellent but I didn't respect the trade. Like many climbers I thought I was the best in the buisness because I was fast. Today as I struggle to endure the pain and misery my life has become I hope that this reaches one climber and I tell you STOP before it's to late ! Not climbing but the long nights of drugs and alcohol. Love and Peace. . . . . .
Wow absolutely impressive! The biggest tree I fell (well sort of fell) was a 28" oak that was partially down already with a Stihl MS 440 and a 25.It was a pain on the ground could not imagine doing that clinging on lol much. This is truly awesome and kick A$$ would love to own a big bar beast. ( not sure what I would ever use it on). By the way dam good video production... Love it... Still learning!!!

Incredible job all around, chunking that big saw and bar around all day in the tree is pretty sporty, not to mention at the the height he was at. Great job by the crane operator as well, that's another magic altogether. Often the ground crew gets overlooked and I assure you they earned their paychecks that day as well. I'd love to see more videos like this, the quality and content was excellent.
Great job y'all!...I worked for a tree svc in Atlanta Ga and, the cool part of the whole process was as bizarre...the crane operator looked exactly like Kenny Rogers (Country Music legend) ...he had it all together!... great job
I get the idea that this sawyer has done this sort of thing before and has got really good at it. Just holding his position on the tree is strenuous in spikes. Good job.
If a tree falls in a neighborhood would any one hear it? Not over the roar of all these chain saws and diesel engines that's for sure! Thanks for the video.
2 things I wondered about when I watched this video; How big a section of tree is that crane capable of hoisting? Did any of that end up being milled into lumber?
Amazing quality footage. Thank you! And skills for treating a big Stihl 660/880 or whatever it is like an arborist saw:) :) Does it come in a top handle model?
Its that moment as the wood releases and just slightly drops and comes toward you that still gives me shivers after 44 years cutting trees,it is ONLY for a certain breed of person YEEHAA!!!
Was the wood no good? the lower sections looked like you could get some good lumber out of it, but I couldnt tell. That old growth lumber can be really nice.
Allow me to rephrase then. Please save your NEGATIVE comments. It takes a great deal of nerve and physical ability to do what we climbers do daily. Some folks just seem to lack respect for the art of it. I saw your earlier comments and recognize you are not one of those people.
Nice job removing this dangerous tree. The crew made it look easy, but any sensible person knows better. This crew of professionals are the best in the business. Russell rocks!

Those were some big fn chunks brother! I'd estimate 4-5 thousand pounds. That little fanno hand saw was outside leg protection I guess lol. Good job man! Love the heavy duty crane! Cable up!
Brainmalfuction Honestly.. that tree will sell for tens of thousands in board feet, tabletops and solid lumber. Most companies would pay you for the removal if they get to keep that wood for market.
@@imacrazyguy5831 lmao, wrong man, no tree service ever does it for the wood.... we have to pay to move it and dispose of it, typically it goes straight to the dump, even more so if its a residental tree, gaurentee theres nails in it fence posts barb wire ect, its trash
@@noobie765 The way they were lowering the sections to the ground instead of just allowing them to drop from the height, it seemed like they wanted to protect the wood from damage and sell it. Also the nails, fence posts, etc would be at the bottom and the rest of the tree would still be good to go.
@@TheKomentor Well they lower it to protect surrounding property. The only way they drop it is if there is nothing nearby to damage, but considering the close proximity to the road and maybe some properties under the tree, they cant risk just letting it fall with no control over where it goes, way too dangerous. I have no idea if they are going to try and sell the wood, but i know the primary reason of craning it out is safety.
Its pretty weird to me how in all these tree removals I see out west your giant logs all get bucked real small. Westies always braggin about the giant trees theyre fallin'. But they all seem to get made into toothpicks. Obviously the loggin industry out there is making slightly bigger sticks out of the big wood, but a log that big is pretty incredible. Takes longer than anyone will live to grow that big. Otherwise - serious props to that climber and crane. Serious business. Great work.
wow - look at the diamater of that tree! You can get 2 x 48 boards :) amazing job ! unbelievable. ! there has to be 10,000$ worth of wood in that FIR Douglas tree
Thank God I wasn't taking that thing down, I would of sworn the crane operator was trying to kill me. sliding those off the cut then dangling over the climber, stressed me out just watching. Uplift and away would have been preferable.
As a former ground crew member, I can honestly say, that is one of the toughest jobs ever. Takes rather large, cast iron testicles to do that for a living!!
PERPARSON do you have any idea what a ms461 weighs? To run a bar that long the tree service I work for would use a husqvarna 395 and, I swear, there must be a lighter saw that could do the same job. Making a level crane pick with that saw isn't the easiest thing to do. Very heavy on the power head end.
Peter Thiessen Benn climbing for along time my first spikes are hanging in the garage. Man I can't remember all those times I wondered why I didn't stay in school. Now I'm the teacher wow.
Why did they crosscut it at the end? Surely a waste of useable timber. I know it's been dead a while but it looked well seasoned at the least, with no rot?

They get paid high dollar and could care less about getting use of something someone else considers valuable.

Gotta love negative comments on how the job was done....nothing but respect for the entire crew and their techniques.
That's going to be a big load for that poor old truck.
It's a real pleasure to see an operation run that smoothly.

That part did scare me. But I would still do it if I were young and all my faculties were at their prime.
Not even a scratch on the fence. Beautiful job guys.

Much respect.
Super man strength to even start that saw while tethered. Not to mention the back cut

What size bar is up in the tree? 48 inch??

its 6.7 kg dry whitout bar and chain.. ms 461 is something between 372xp and 385xp.... ms 660 is like 390-395xp ms 461 have 6HP and 660 have 7.1hp
I thought it was a 880 chainsaw
