and I quote "Ok, have a sense of humor people, blaming it on the groundsman was a jest, of course it wasn't his fault." That's absolutely true it wasn't his fault, but the book of tree law states (page 8, section 2) IT'S ALWAYS THE GROUNDIES FAULT. Broken fences, broken windows, broken greenhouses, third world poverty......all the groundies fault!!!!
Lmao. 🤣 I'm a groundie in the UK. My hubby is the climber. Its always his fault 😂😂😂 this team are great. Good communication is key. It's a brilliant job to do but it can go sideways so fast!. As long as no one gets hurt it's a good day 😉💖
This true. I shit you not, I moved a stump one day that hadn't been loaded out yet, since it was right near where the but of the tree we were dropping would be. Moved it out of the way at a 45 degree angle. Apparently they had a magnetic attraction because fuck if that tree didnt hit that stump when the dude dropped it. Nailed a fence.
This is exactly the kind of person I'd want to work with. He let's you know when you're doing good, calmly lets you know if you need to do something different, and can calmly handle a situation (even crack a few jokes) when things don't go quite right. The guys that yell and scream their heads off aren't doing anything but making the job harder to do.
A little praise does go a long way but if you have to tell your guy on the rope everytime what to do, not good I think. Someone looks like a rookie. Which makes the owner look bad.
when you're hanging up there and thinking about all the ways that last cut could go wrong, then it goes right, you just gotta say something, a quiet sigh just don't fit the moment.
It was a thin walled plastic irrigation line that cost 3 bucks for a short piece... 2 couplings, some primer and glue done! You and your team did an amazing job and awesome video.
46 years ago when I was 18 years old my buddy and I took the initiative to start a tree removal business before we went to college. . We purchased two chain saws and lots of ropes. Our first job went very well. As young kids we made more money in two days than we could have doing just about anything else for the entire summer. Our second job was a bit more complicated and we used my mothers car to direct and pull the falling limbs away from the nearly home as we removed the limbs from the top towards the base of the tree.. We changed positions with me now on the ground cutting up the fallen limbs while my friend re positioned himself to cut the next limb of the tree. As I was cutting the fallen limbs on the ground I felt splashes on my back. I reached around and noticed the splashes were blood. My buddy had lost balance and when he tried to regain stability he pushed the spike of one of his climber boots into his calf muscle severing a major blood vessel. He was losing consciousness when I discovered the problem. I lowered him down on the climbing line and raced him to the nearest hospital going 100 MPH. He was given a unit of blood and had the deep laceration repaired. It was a very frightening experience for two 18 year old kids.
Over 20 years ago I worked for the phone company in your area.I was digging a hole to replace an electric pole.I cut right through a phone line that was 2 inches in diameter.I asked the boss what it was and he said"those are some very expensive roots". He said "dont worry,noone will be calling anytime soon." Near manchester. I 44
Lol I did some work laying phone cable. All I can say is, I’m more surprised that stuff doesn’t go out constantly. Even when we knew more or less where other lines were, nobody seemed to care in the slightest. ‘Guess the cables going out again” was probably the phrase I heard most. The scariest, “hope that’s an inactive gas line.”
Wait, from all the videos I've seen on the subject, you're supposed to have someone hold your beer and just cut it at the very bottom, letting it fall on the house. No need for all that fancy rope stuff;)....lol...
You sir are a bad ass. I could watch you work all day long. You know youre equipment, are a master arborist, give praise to your employees, and are having fun being a professional. Top notch.
I'm a landscaper on a major college campus. We have inground irrigation literally everywhere. I've removed probably several hundred trees in the 20 years I've been here and have never seen anything like that. I'd just chalk that up to bad luck, get the lateral fixed, and move on. Great job! Very entertaining to watch, and I'm going to add this to my list of videos I show when training new people about tree work.
good stuff dude.just found your videos.i have been doing tree removal since 1992 till couple years ago when I injured by back by falling from about 60 feet up a tree when a limb I cut swung out funny and pinched my safety line and severed it causing me to fall.i still run the business but I'm not the climber anymore and seeing your p. O. V. camera shots bring back that feeling of the past and it really cool.cut on brother!
60' fall you're lucky to be alive. That's why I sold my gear. I wasn't climbing often enough to stay in shape so I decided time to retire before I had a major accident.
Same here. I did climbing until 2008 when I was about 50' up in a pine tree and the roots of the tree gave out. Injured everything _but_ my back. I really, _really_ miss climbing, but I don't dare do it any more. I still love heights, but if I were to have another accident, I might not be so lucky next time. I can still run lines on the ground, and I still cut trees for firewood, but I sold my spikes and keep my boots on the ground now. Awesome video.
My dads fell 40. At the time it was my first year climbing so he wouldn’t let me climb the big pine. Dad was always in a rush to get it down because we was always behind in bills it was rough times. He cut the top out with the climbing line still tied in. Basically slung shot him too the ground. He survived and is doing better but still has life long problems. I’m the climber now I hate it because I’m under paid by my uncle. But I do it because it’s all I know and have ever done.
"Awesome!!" "perfect!!" "Nice very nice!" .. Honestly wish the people I work with were more like that because for someone like me who's barely starting off in construction and since I do what other people tell me what to do saying stuff like that is such a morale boost and what they don't realize is that it encourages those who don't know much of what they're doing and are learning plus it makes the work more enjoyable
It's not like it was ever a choice between these things. What a dumb way to look at things. Cheerful and positive, which is nice. But too dumb for me to follow
Your climbing videos are always fun to watch. Just the right combo of danger, adventure and skill. My wife has asked me more than once (as she watches your videos with me) "why is watching a guy trim trees so interesting?" I think it is because we appreciate your work ethic and you are truly good at what you do. For me, I would add that it is satisfying to see something so untamed being tamed by one man (with a ground crew of course). I am constantly impressed by your ability to predict where a limb will fall once it is cut. Perhaps you could do a video sometime that details your process of tying off a branch. For added interest, place a target on the ground that you are aiming for just to highlight your skill. My favorite video will always be F-U-D-T-S. Keep up the good work and stay safe!
well that sounds like a nasty piece of work. why is it people dont get utility layout maps before they do this? I mean it seems like a necessary precaution. or am I being unrealistic?
ted rebel I don't think simple lawn sprinkler irrigation systems are mapped out. Usually the homeowner just turns them on/off. They don't hold constant water pressure like your house pipes.
Greg Dent thats what i wanted to comment about what are the chances it would dig in go under and pull the pipe cus now u have to check that hole section rather than being able to just replace a crushed section
One thing I learned in landscaping....if you're trying to find a line, you won't. If you are trying/hoping NOT to find a line, you most certainly will!
This is logging done safely and professionally. Very clean cuts, the saw has been well maintained, and proper safety procedures (tie offs, communication, etc.) are being utilized. I would def hire these guys.
You're such an adrenaline junky, I'm such an armchair quarterback. Hat's off for keeping your ground crew motivated. With an attitude like that they're going to fight over who gets to go with you.
Like that stihl saw you were using at the beginning. Just bought me an MS261 C-M 20 inch bar love it. Sadly though its still not big enough for a few trees I need to cut up but it will get through it lol. Love the videos!
I love your communication with your ground crew, clear and concise, they know what you want and they seem to do what you say, nice team work. Sucks about the pipe in the ground, stuff happens. Cheers from Tokyo!
I haven't been online/UA-cam in a while and right when I logged on here I seen this video and realized that you are alright and back to work after your fall and surgeries! Great to see you back kicking ass and taking...down trees! Lol! Be safe, brotha! \m/
Mud Puddle There is a lot of skill involved in this job, however using a chainsaw one handed up a tree while cutting is very unsafe and should not be aloud even if it is quicker. People like to build their reputation in this industry by how quick you can get a tree down safely and quickly, with two hands on the chainsaw also! But you could argue that some company’s let you get away with one handed cutting where as some others don’t.
Manifold Max any good climber- groundcrew relationship should be like this, in the words of my instructor when I first learned, “you should feel like siblings”
I just wanted to tell ya to "keep it up!" And great job letting your crew know they were doing well. I love to see that in humans and it makes me hopeful for the future. Great job dude!
I know this is an older video that being said, I have been working for my best friend for about 2 years now doing tree work. I was climbing certified in the military and was an instructor at one point. So I helped him learn gaffing techniques. Fast forward to today and we are a licensed, bonded, and insured. We are starting to expand rapidly and are moving into bigger and bigger tree work. I mainly stay on the ground now do to my age and military disabilities. I’m learning more and more rigging techniques. Any other videos you may be able to recommend for “semi instructional” content would be great! I am scheduled to go to a 7 day rigging school at the end of this season also.
Irrational? Nothing irrational about a healthy respect for one of the most powerful and mysterious forces in the universe. Gravity demands respect, and isn't shy about reminding us, anytime we have a lapse in memory.
@@mapleholler9800 Nah, it ain't healthy. Like I've been to a climbing five times now and have only made it to the top of one wall. It's wired because I love rollercoasters but I can't climb a twenty foot wall with a harness on.
I don't blame you. I was finishing concrete standing on a 10 inch beam.....barefooted and 8ft above a hardened concrete floor. I stood up too fast. Got overbalanced and knew I was going over backwards. Decided quickly that landing feet first was preferable to flat on my back, so I stepped back and landed flat on my feet. Hurt like h_ll. Have often thought about how much worse it might have been. Both of my sons were afraid of heights and both now work on wind turbines (+-260 ft) for a living. The pictures they take from standing on top, down to the ground, give me vertigo. Heights didn't used to bother me, but as they got more used to it, I seem to have gotten less so. Of course they are harnessed and tied into a restraint system, but still dangerous.
I haven't finished your video, but all I can say is that you are awesome. I can't help but notice that every time you cut a limb, and your guys do what you want, you give them positive feedback. I feel like in this harder labor work there is nothing but negativity. Overall very impressed by your Jobsite attitude.
That is one of the most dangerous jobs to have. There has to be communication as to what is going on at all times. Everyone needs to be on the same page. I still puckered when those branches teetertottered back at him, geez.
You are very skilled at rigging. You scared me more than once, but you were spot on every time. You made your saw work look easy, when it really never is. Amazing video. Sorry about the irrigation line, but if I’m your client I’m thinking about the worries you saved me not the little one fixable with a 99 cent coupling. Your teacher and mentor is proud of you. Thanks for sharing, and all the best.
Three years ago I had a 60 foot tree in my backyard that I was afraid would blow over during a wind storm. I was crazy enough to think that I could take it down myself. After climbing about half way up, looking down at all the potential damage I'd cause on my neighbor's decking roof and his storage shed, it was actually cheaper to hire a professional crew to do the job and haul the stuff away. They also ended up with a lot of firewood to sell. Two weeks ago, my 25 foot pine tree blew over onto my other neighbors garage. That was an easy one to do starting with the lower branches and all the trunk branches to lessen the weight, then onto of the garage roof to lessen the load on the roof. After cutting the trunk down to lower roof level, only then started to remove the soft branches cushioning the weight on the roof. Turns out that there was no damage done to the roof because green branches cushioned the weight and the trunk at the bottom was resting against a fence. When I watched this video, these guys have my respect on the way their tree came down. Too many people don't realize that ir's a science to take a tree down without damaging anything. Somebody going wild with a chainsaw can hurt property or themselves through sheer ignorance if they don't take the tree down in a logical manner.
What. That’s.... that’s not... schedule 40 is thick sidewall drainage pipe. What I install in French drains and such. 4 inch pipe. That’s a 1 inch poly lateral irrigation line meaning that irrigation system is also junk anyways.
Your day can be easy as pie or extremely frustrating depending on the skill level of the rope man...i've found it is one of those jobs people underestimate the importance of. Knowing when to pull, hold it, or let it run can be the difference between life and death for the climber...I HATE having a rookie on the line! Lol. Great vid tho! I would still call it a successful job. Shouldn't have been too expensive of a fix.
Jd hairiest M Toxic I'm gonna take a wild stab at this, but I'm thinkin', and correct me if I'm wrong😕, but I'm thinkin' that somewhere along the line that maybe at one time, lets see here.....YOU were a rookie, no? 🤔hmmmm...a little bit of the kettle calling the pot black?? NOBODY starts out as a professional....jmo
Dude, I have serious Acrophobia, so bad even my mom was afraid of height when she had me in the belly; she couldn't even stand on overpass. And here I am, watching you chop away an old, dying & rotten tree on the tree top. My feet were itchy as hell even if I was just watching a GoPro footage... you have my respect, sir, stay safe!
That blue chainsaw hanging on your wall over your left shoulder looks like an early 1970s Homelite those are very collectible. I like the way you talk to your crew that's very respectable. The damage to the waterline is minimal real easy fix good job on the tree. I've cut for over 20 years again excellent job!
I used to do tree work. Nah, not really. Not compared to you. If the tree was close to anything important I passed. I didn’t have the balls to work close to houses and cars, power lines etc. I was comfortable high up in the tree, just didn’t like being close to peoples stuff. Anyway, it’s nice to see someone that knows what they are doing. Cheers!
All the power to ya brother. I am not a heights person at all. Watching your video im just like, man at least he's getting closer to the ground, lol. What are the chances of that happening and actually digging a irrigation line up. That sucks too, probably had to re dingo that whole line. I can't stand doing irrigation, mostly because we're out on a desert all day lol...
K&S Tree Service Go Pro Heard those create issues a couple years after installation .. Some guy from the city had us stop using those and just use couplings :/
Yeah, no big deal if you break or cut the pipe unless... you pull the pipe like that log did, then you may have problems on your hands. Pipes are usually connected to things, things like sprinkler heads, other pipes and even pumps. I doubt that the folks who put that pipe in left some slack in it just in case something like this happened.
One sprinkler is no big deal it is just great you got the tree down with only that. I think you did a wonderful job. i would be terrified to climb up there and do that. Hope all your jobs is this great for you and be safe.
I'm curious about the old Homelite chainsaws up on the wall, I've helped my old man and Grandpa cut alot of wood with an old Homelite super 2. Best saw I've ever owned.
Had a fencing guy dig with hand tools to avoid hitting any pipes or wires instead of a post drilling tool, he still managed to cut my internet wire with his shovel lmao but it also wasn't his fault, for some reason, it wasn't in a conduit and it was only buried like 15cm.
Aww lol that’s the most perfect destruction of a pvc irrigation line and I install and service irrigation lmao. That shit was perfect, easy enough to fix. Too many people use that junk pvc though with no master valve so water is always filling the lines way out into the yards usually to the valves but the right way to do it is 1foot of pvc off the backflow or whatever 2-3 foot. Stay close to the house and put a master valve coming off the pvc right at the house then run 1 inch black poly line throughout the whole system. Dry throughout the whole yard if you hit something main line it doesn’t just blow water infinitely out of the ground til you find a backflow to shut off. Tbh I wouldn’t let this one get you down, it’s more unique than anything that was meant to happen lmao 😂
Absolutely your fault because you said it was going "PERFECT" @5:15. If you had not said perfect then it would have been fine. Murphy's law and all:) Subbed.
I had to be a bucket truck man because of knee surgery I miss the work and love watching good climbers. You got a good ground team, hard to find. Awesome work
Last week we were finishing up a job re- installing fence we took down for a job. One of my operators "forgot" we just installed the chain link fence post and folded it in half. Mind you this is about the time I was going to ask for the check. The job ain't over til your sitting at the shop having a drink with the guys.
Samuel Luria especially on the mini skid which is amazing for visibility! He is young guy. Been with me 4 months. Good worker. Just always in a hurry trying to impress. He helped me come back couple days later to replace and restretch the chain link so he knows he did wrong and in sure he wont do it again.
Guys.... I was just breaking horns....like I always do....if you only knew, all the whacky happenings that we go through, Lol....you would KNOW that I'm just commiserating!😜😜😜
Shoot! - I myself just cut a $200 libe on Wednesday, cause I was on the phone with bill collectors, while I was bucking a 50" Oak..... nobody to blame but my DAWGONE SELF!!! Too busy cussin' at the guy on the other end of the line....😂
Hey don't sweat it. In a way yes I understand it's your (Company, crew, etc) responsibility to make sure stuff like that isn't there, but in a way if the homeowner doesn't tell you if they have them or have them marked with paint, it's honestly on them in my opinion. I know that's not a good image for a company to tell the owner that or the right thing to do probably legally, but I think you understand what I'm getting at. Nice work regardless!
Okay you can't get out of something legally or maintain a good business reputation by calling the owner a dumbass for not having the lines marked. So yes, people know what I'm saying regardless of your personal comprehension on it. It's common sense to mark lines regardless of the material the lines are made of or what they're used for to let workers know what's below their feet. What if that was a gas line for some reason? That could've been a huge mess because of the homeowners negligence and lack of common sense.
Jay Doubleyhoo when I had my fence installed I had to have a guy come and identify lines in the ground. Wanna know why? The people making my fence doesn't have the responsibility to know where all the shit in my ground is, but to just make me my fence (btw the retards didn't even do it properly but unrelated).
lol - Do you see how the responsibility might shift, between a fence company, whom you are ASKING to dig in your property, by definition, and an arborist, whom you as the homeowner have NOT in any way, asked or permitted, to do any sort of "unearthing", intentional or otherwise?? You might not be a business owner, so these categorical differences may have no relevance to you...

Bro, that was awesome! I have no idea how I came across this, but screw it! Best video I've seen in a while. Love the rolling commentary. I'm gonna go out and cut down my neighbors' trees now!!!
Me: "I'll take 'Things that never happened' for $500, Alex" Alex Trebek: "When a youtube comment claims, 'I just turn the audio up and my neighbour runs outside thinking that I'm cutting down one of his trees.'" Me: "What is... bullshit?"
Those poly lines are really easy to repair.. it probably wasn't even damaged either. Now if it had been a gas line, that'd be a little scarier.. but those are usually much deeper.
iAndy wth where do you see poly. Every system I put in is fully dry and flex 1inch black poly main and lateral lines but this is a lateral pvc line. That shits twig, it just shatters. Junk system lol
Nice job. I have been doing tree work for 15 years. I can tell you know what your doing with rigging. And nice job encouraging your crew. As far as the pipe hose, that happens to the beat of us.
For a 19 year old, I find working for a tree cutting service very entertaining. I'm 19 bout to turn 20 and I've been working with cutting trees for a few months but one thing I like more about your videos is how you climb the trees and cut off any branches, I just use a bucket but climbing would be making work so much more fun.
(Having said that, Irrigation companies, unlike actual Utility Companies, could/should be providing schematics of their conduit, as a service to the client. Utility Companies are precluded from doing this for various logistical and legal reasons, but irrigation is different, and is on a property-by-property basis - nobody other than themselves stops them from providing this service.)
Nathan - If you are going to survive in the tree business, be ready to do TONS of legwork for your clients. Setting up mark-outs is just the ABC's.... There will be 12 other companies nearby, who will do this legwork, and that's just the way it goes....not only that, but, having taken care of the mark-outs, you still may lose the job to someone else....unless you have a magic system that will guard against that, Lol.....
At a party: what do you do I cut down trees while standing on the tree. And say 3 word over and over again Love ya brotha great videos Also watched it at 2 am
I am very happy to see this video is very interesting because as of today I am starting up my very own business here in Texas d&w landscaping and tree service anyway I was just wondering if you can give me a little more information about the equipment you use the rope the harnesses stuff like that God bless you and have a good day I would like to talk to you more about it maybe you can send me a private message or maybe even text try to get a hold of me when you have time
and I quote "Ok, have a sense of humor people, blaming it on the groundsman was a jest, of course it wasn't his fault."

This true. I shit you not, I moved a stump one day that hadn't been loaded out yet, since it was right near where the but of the tree we were dropping would be. Moved it out of the way at a 45 degree angle. Apparently they had a magnetic attraction because fuck if that tree didnt hit that stump when the dude dropped it. Nailed a fence.
Homeowner has some responsibility to inform the crew about the location of irrigation and other possible hazards
As it should be says the man high up in a fucking tree.
Rather than having a monkey crawling all around up in the tree, I just cut the tree down.
I like the way you tell your ground crew they are doing a good job. A little praise goes a long way!
Exactly good communication with ground crew no stress or yelling etc, looks like a good crew to work with.
This is exactly the kind of person I'd want to work with. He let's you know when you're doing good, calmly lets you know if you need to do something different, and can calmly handle a situation (even crack a few jokes) when things don't go quite right. The guys that yell and scream their heads off aren't doing anything but making the job harder to do.
Very true. The climber didn't even have to compliment the ground guys that often but that is still 100 times better than screamers.
A little praise does go a long way but if you have to tell your guy on the rope everytime what to do, not good I think. Someone looks like a rookie. Which makes the owner look bad.
Wish my foreman would recognise my coworkers who climb
Did I really just watch 10 minutes of a guy cutting a tree repeating “nice” “perfect” over and over again?
Is it bad that I enjoyed every minute of it
John Doe aggressive
Dont forget cooh
John Doe takes one to know one?
when you're hanging up there and thinking about all the ways that last cut could go wrong, then it goes right, you just gotta say something, a quiet sigh just don't fit the moment.
“Who’s the crew leader?”
“Ronnie”
“Ur fault”
Yeah that made me laugh so much!!
Yup
Haha hey it was the crew leaders fault. Climber did his job with a great attitude, rare to see nowadays.
If there’s a video game for cutting trees down his voice should be on it “Perfect!” “Nice!” “You Lose!”
You forgot that hes says "cool" alot
That was beautiful!
And when you start cutting; Okay heads up!
EPIC
He said “very nice” a couple times

He was losing consciousness when I discovered the problem. I lowered him down on the climbing line and raced him to the nearest hospital going 100 MPH. He was given a unit of blood and had the deep laceration repaired. It was a very frightening experience for two 18 year old kids.

Yep, I'd definitely work hard for and listen to this climber. Keeping morale high is definitely crucial in this line of work.

Is this an exhausting job? In your opinion is it long hours
good stuff dude.just found your videos.i have been doing tree removal since 1992 till couple years ago when I injured by back by falling from about 60 feet up a tree when a limb I cut swung out funny and pinched my safety line and severed it causing me to fall.i still run the business but I'm not the climber anymore and seeing your p. O. V. camera shots bring back that feeling of the past and it really cool.cut on brother!
60' fall you're lucky to be alive. That's why I sold my gear. I wasn't climbing often enough to stay in shape so I decided time to retire before I had a major accident.
Same here. I did climbing until 2008 when I was about 50' up in a pine tree and the roots of the tree gave out. Injured everything _but_ my back. I really, _really_ miss climbing, but I don't dare do it any more. I still love heights, but if I were to have another accident, I might not be so lucky next time. I can still run lines on the ground, and I still cut trees for firewood, but I sold my spikes and keep my boots on the ground now. Awesome video.
My dads fell 40. At the time it was my first year climbing so he wouldn’t let me climb the big pine. Dad was always in a rush to get it down because we was always behind in bills it was rough times. He cut the top out with the climbing line still tied in. Basically slung shot him too the ground. He survived and is doing better but still has life long problems. I’m the climber now I hate it because I’m under paid by my uncle. But I do it because it’s all I know and have ever done.
@@brittanypratt3345 where are you based?
@@garrisonawm 63 stil climbing love it
"Awesome!!" "perfect!!" "Nice very nice!" .. Honestly wish the people I work with were more like that because for someone like me who's barely starting off in construction and since I do what other people tell me what to do saying stuff like that is such a morale boost and what they don't realize is that it encourages those who don't know much of what they're doing and are learning plus it makes the work more enjoyable
will take that happening over someone getting hurt any day the week
Absolutely!
Of course. Shit like that line can be replaced. People can't.
It's not like it was ever a choice between these things. What a dumb way to look at things.
Cheerful and positive, which is nice. But too dumb for me to follow
Justin McCoy Get back to me and say that again if you ever lose a loved one.
Justin McCoy You were the one trying to be smart.
"Am I REALLY going to watch a video of a guy cutting down a tree for 10 minutes at 4 in the morning?.... OF COURSE I AM!"
The video WAS interesting, but I prefer the videos where the tree hits a house or vehicle.
9:35 God why does everything have to be over 10 minutes now.
u need more votes
Because of the algorithm.
Your climbing videos are always fun to watch. Just the right combo of danger, adventure and skill. My wife has asked me more than once (as she watches your videos with me) "why is watching a guy trim trees so interesting?" I think it is because we appreciate your work ethic and you are truly good at what you do. For me, I would add that it is satisfying to see something so untamed being tamed by one man (with a ground crew of course).
I am constantly impressed by your ability to predict where a limb will fall once it is cut. Perhaps you could do a video sometime that details your process of tying off a branch. For added interest, place a target on the ground that you are aiming for just to highlight your skill.
My favorite video will always be F-U-D-T-S. Keep up the good work and stay safe!
Thanks =) Much appreciated
That is nothing lol. Try dropping a 14in log down through the top of a septic tank.
No disrespect John but that's pretty gay.
In the UK we call a really large poop a log. Never did one that was 14 inches though.
I don't have a septic tank either.
hahahaha gold...
well that sounds like a nasty piece of work. why is it people dont get utility layout maps before they do this? I mean it seems like a necessary precaution. or am I being unrealistic?
ted rebel I don't think simple lawn sprinkler irrigation systems are mapped out. Usually the homeowner just turns them on/off. They don't hold constant water pressure like your house pipes.
It's funny how us tree guys always manage to find that one pipe in a back yard.
Trees for the pipe pipe to light up the tree
Same here when building construction! Its actually crazy!
or girls... lol

LMAO yeah I liked that part too
6:38 GOOD
9:26 BAD
1 in 10,000 chance that branch would dig up that line. Wow.
Greg Dent thats what i wanted to comment about what are the chances it would dig in go under and pull the pipe cus now u have to check that hole section rather than being able to just replace a crushed section
1 in a lifetime would probably be more accurate, almost impossible to get that branch to fall the way it did AND in that particular spot
I know, I was about to say...That is some rare ass chances. That sucks though.
Then it's a certainty, not chance.
One thing I learned in landscaping....if you're trying to find a line, you won't. If you are trying/hoping NOT to find a line, you most certainly will!
This is logging done safely and professionally. Very clean cuts, the saw has been well maintained, and proper safety procedures (tie offs, communication, etc.) are being utilized. I would def hire these guys.
At least I know I’m not the only one watching this in 2019
Craig Moorer yeah that was a job well done!!!!!
Stihl saw's new, 395xp's shiny for old saw

I see what you did there. I’m picking up what you’re laying down.
You're such an adrenaline junky, I'm such an armchair quarterback. Hat's off for keeping your ground crew motivated. With an attitude like that they're going to fight over who gets to go with you.
Why are ya'll so mean to the nice comment ? lul
Shawn Caney Did you just learn to use the word "Fuck" ? I'm fucking loving it.
Shawn Caney what is a weerdo?😂 learn grammar bud go back to 2nd grade

Moderator Sylveon yeah fix that grammar Shawn, damn
Man, that thing popped that line out of the ground like a gopher...
Like that stihl saw you were using at the beginning. Just bought me an MS261 C-M 20 inch bar love it. Sadly though its still not big enough for a few trees I need to cut up but it will get through it lol. Love the videos!
I love your communication with your ground crew, clear and concise, they know what you want and they seem to do what you say, nice team work.
Sucks about the pipe in the ground, stuff happens.
Cheers from Tokyo!
I haven't been online/UA-cam in a while and right when I logged on here I seen this video and realized that you are alright and back to work after your fall and surgeries! Great to see you back kicking ass and taking...down trees! Lol! Be safe, brotha! \m/
Never seen this guy, already respect him a lot. Commanding and authoritative but not to embarrassed to give his co workers complements.
6:30 I kept rewinding to watch how it actually did swing around in the same motion your arm made like holy SHIT
Kit Palencar it just followed the anchor line which is where it had no choice but to follow that route.
" nice, very nice, perfect"..
Does he say that during sex ? Hahahaa
I don´t think so. Unless he tries to motivate himself during a very bad lay.
You don't? I do!
Only when he's choking his log.
Wolf Lady wouldn’t you like to find out? You old cougar. 😂
Lol
Awesome video. I wonder how many people really grasp how much skill is involved in what you are doing? You're a Boss!
Mud Puddle There is a lot of skill involved in this job, however using a chainsaw one handed up a tree while cutting is very unsafe and should not be aloud even if it is quicker. People like to build their reputation in this industry by how quick you can get a tree down safely and quickly, with two hands on the chainsaw also! But you could argue that some company’s let you get away with one handed cutting where as some others don’t.
Damn, is was getting vertigo just from watching this video. I can't imagine actually being up there. You are a bad ass.
*"Very nice!" "Good job!"* *"Purfect!"* *"Cool."*
Could throw a "sweet" in there. Then they might think Cartman is running the saw.
I'd love to work for this guy, his constant positive affirmations would inspire me to work hard lol! "Very nice" "Perfect"
Manifold Max any good climber- groundcrew relationship should be like this, in the words of my instructor when I first learned, “you should feel like siblings”
I just wanted to tell ya to "keep it up!" And great job letting your crew know they were doing well. I love to see that in humans and it makes me hopeful for the future. Great job dude!
I know this is an older video that being said, I have been working for my best friend for about 2 years now doing tree work. I was climbing certified in the military and was an instructor at one point. So I helped him learn gaffing techniques.
Fast forward to today and we are a licensed, bonded, and insured. We are starting to expand rapidly and are moving into bigger and bigger tree work. I mainly stay on the ground now do to my age and military disabilities. I’m learning more and more rigging techniques. Any other videos you may be able to recommend for “semi instructional” content would be great!
I am scheduled to go to a 7 day rigging school at the end of this season also.
These are the jobs I'd wanna do if I didn't have an overwhelming, irrational fear of heights.
Irrational? Nothing irrational about a healthy respect for one of the most powerful and mysterious forces in the universe. Gravity demands respect, and isn't shy about reminding us, anytime we have a lapse in memory.
@@mapleholler9800 Nah, it ain't healthy. Like I've been to a climbing five times now and have only made it to the top of one wall. It's wired because I love rollercoasters but I can't climb a twenty foot wall with a harness on.
I don't blame you. I was finishing concrete standing on a 10 inch beam.....barefooted and 8ft above a hardened concrete floor. I stood up too fast. Got overbalanced and knew I was going over backwards. Decided quickly that landing feet first was preferable to flat on my back, so I stepped back and landed flat on my feet. Hurt like h_ll. Have often thought about how much worse it might have been. Both of my sons were afraid of heights and both now work on wind turbines (+-260 ft) for a living. The pictures they take from standing on top, down to the ground, give me vertigo. Heights didn't used to bother me, but as they got more used to it, I seem to have gotten less so. Of course they are harnessed and tied into a restraint system, but still dangerous.
I haven't finished your video, but all I can say is that you are awesome. I can't help but notice that every time you cut a limb, and your guys do what you want, you give them positive feedback. I feel like in this harder labor work there is nothing but negativity. Overall very impressed by your Jobsite attitude.
someone knows how to lead!!!
That is one of the most dangerous jobs to have. There has to be communication as to what is going on at all times. Everyone needs to be on the same page. I still puckered when those branches teetertottered back at him, geez.
I like the fact that you give positive reinforcement to your ground crew. That's the sign of aa good boss.
Yes sir, too many screamers nowadays, which I believe hurts both productivity and morale.
You are very skilled at rigging. You scared me more than once, but you were spot on every time. You made your saw work look easy, when it really never is. Amazing video. Sorry about the irrigation line, but if I’m your client I’m thinking about the worries you saved me not the little one fixable with a 99 cent coupling. Your teacher and mentor is proud of you. Thanks for sharing, and all the best.
Three years ago I had a 60 foot tree in my backyard that I was afraid would blow over during a wind storm. I was crazy enough to think that I could take it down myself. After climbing about half way up, looking down at all the potential damage I'd cause on my neighbor's decking roof and his storage shed, it was actually cheaper to hire a professional crew to do the job and haul the stuff away. They also ended up with a lot of firewood to sell.
Two weeks ago, my 25 foot pine tree blew over onto my other neighbors garage. That was an easy one to do starting with the lower branches and all the trunk branches to lessen the weight, then onto of the garage roof to lessen the load on the roof. After cutting the trunk down to lower roof level, only then started to remove the soft branches cushioning the weight on the roof. Turns out that there was no damage done to the roof because green branches cushioned the weight and the trunk at the bottom was resting against a fence. When I watched this video, these guys have my respect on the way their tree came down. Too many people don't realize that ir's a science to take a tree down without damaging anything. Somebody going wild with a chainsaw can hurt property or themselves through sheer ignorance if they don't take the tree down in a logical manner.
I like to imagine these guys get paid based on the number of "Cool"s, "Very Nice"s, and "Perfect"s there are on the job.
All of 'em get wiped out with one 'oh, shit'.
Hilarious! Nice job. If you can take care of a tree that size and only bend some Schedule-40....you're doing great!
What. That’s.... that’s not... schedule 40 is thick sidewall drainage pipe. What I install in French drains and such. 4 inch pipe. That’s a 1 inch poly lateral irrigation line meaning that irrigation system is also junk anyways.
Your day can be easy as pie or extremely frustrating depending on the skill level of the rope man...i've found it is one of those jobs people underestimate the importance of. Knowing when to pull, hold it, or let it run can be the difference between life and death for the climber...I HATE having a rookie on the line! Lol. Great vid tho! I would still call it a successful job. Shouldn't have been too expensive of a fix.
Jd hairiest M Toxic, and also a nice controllable belay, a portawrap is worth its weight in gold, and simpifies teaching the ropes to a gr.mn
GOTTA have a port-a-wrap. I have my girl run ropes...SO SMOOTH, and also has the common sense of a female. The voice of reason if you will.
Jd hairiest M Toxic
I'm gonna take a wild stab at this, but I'm thinkin', and correct me if I'm wrong😕, but I'm thinkin' that somewhere along the line that maybe at one time, lets see here.....YOU were a rookie, no?
🤔hmmmm...a little bit of the kettle calling the pot black?? NOBODY starts out as a professional....jmo
Dude, I have serious Acrophobia, so bad even my mom was afraid of height when she had me in the belly; she couldn't even stand on overpass.
And here I am, watching you chop away an old, dying & rotten tree on the tree top. My feet were itchy as hell even if I was just watching a GoPro footage... you have my respect, sir, stay safe!
That blue chainsaw hanging on your wall over your left shoulder looks like an early 1970s Homelite those are very collectible. I like the way you talk to your crew that's very respectable. The damage to the waterline is minimal real easy fix good job on the tree. I've cut for over 20 years again excellent job!
Nice video, thanks for sharing !!
Very nice.

I used to do tree work. Nah, not really. Not compared to you.
If the tree was close to anything important I passed. I didn’t have the balls to work close to houses and cars, power lines etc. I was comfortable high up in the tree, just didn’t like being close to peoples stuff.
Anyway, it’s nice to see someone that knows what they are doing. Cheers!
It's you're fault, I'm just the new guy! Priceless
Interesting saw in this video what is the model?
What a *FANTASTIC* job!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Really enjoyed watching this.
All the power to ya brother. I am not a heights person at all. Watching your video im just like, man at least he's getting closer to the ground, lol. What are the chances of that happening and actually digging a irrigation line up. That sucks too, probably had to re dingo that whole line. I can't stand doing irrigation, mostly because we're out on a desert all day lol...
I like the part where he said "nice"
I must of missed that part can you leave a stamp to help me find it thanks
He never said the word nice though
@@rickyblinkeye yty.ggggvgvvggggfxyfyygfgytfygytgugtyg
Which part?
Irrigation line? That would take about 15 minutes to fix. No worries and nice work overall.
5 minutes top
buddy of mine cut irrigation lines all the time he is planting something.
just carry a bag of connectors
Slip fix. Will fix that.
K&S Tree Service Go Pro Heard those create issues a couple years after installation .. Some guy from the city had us stop using those and just use couplings :/
Yeah, no big deal if you break or cut the pipe unless... you pull the pipe like that log did, then you may have problems on your hands. Pipes are usually connected to things, things like sprinkler heads, other pipes and even pumps. I doubt that the folks who put that pipe in left some slack in it just in case something like this happened.
new to your channel, thanks!
One sprinkler is no big deal it is just great you got the tree down with only that. I think you did a wonderful job. i would be terrified to climb up there and do that. Hope all your jobs is this great for you and be safe.
great video, I was a climber for 20 years both with the City of Los Angeles and my own tree company. Bummed there was no GoPro then
That pipe waited its whole life for that glorious moment
I'm curious about the old Homelite chainsaws up on the wall, I've helped my old man and Grandpa cut alot of wood with an old Homelite super 2. Best saw I've ever owned.
Ain’t nothing compared to a third party contractor with a backhoe - lookout underground utilities!
😬
Had a fencing guy dig with hand tools to avoid hitting any pipes or wires instead of a post drilling tool, he still managed to cut my internet wire with his shovel lmao but it also wasn't his fault, for some reason, it wasn't in a conduit and it was only buried like 15cm.
Aww lol that’s the most perfect destruction of a pvc irrigation line and I install and service irrigation lmao. That shit was perfect, easy enough to fix. Too many people use that junk pvc though with no master valve so water is always filling the lines way out into the yards usually to the valves but the right way to do it is 1foot of pvc off the backflow or whatever 2-3 foot. Stay close to the house and put a master valve coming off the pvc right at the house then run 1 inch black poly line throughout the whole system. Dry throughout the whole yard if you hit something main line it doesn’t just blow water infinitely out of the ground til you find a backflow to shut off. Tbh I wouldn’t let this one get you down, it’s more unique than anything that was meant to happen lmao 😂
I would gladly come work on your crew. You are very upbeat and encouraging
Til he blames you for his fuck ups hahahaha
So here i am 2:14 on a rainy night watching a guy chop trees. 0 regrets!
So this is what John Cena does on his off days
LMAO

Teddy Roosevelt is he up in the tree? I cant see him up there?
LMAO I was thinking the exact same thing! This dude has the voice of a legend
Hes alot sexier than Cena thank you very much

Ive been trying to find this channel for a minute! Randomly pops up on my recommended.
I had to be a bucket truck man because of knee surgery I miss the work and love watching good climbers. You got a good ground team, hard to find. Awesome work
I’m halfway through the video and I already have anxiety
My son does this, mine went through the roof minutes in.
Last week we were finishing up a job re- installing fence we took down for a job. One of my operators "forgot" we just installed the chain link fence post and folded it in half. Mind you this is about the time I was going to ask for the check. The job ain't over til your sitting at the shop having a drink with the guys.
Freaking FENCES!!! (Was the operator drinking? A shiny object, 4' high...."should" be hard to miss, Lol)
Samuel Luria especially on the mini skid which is amazing for visibility! He is young guy. Been with me 4 months. Good worker. Just always in a hurry trying to impress. He helped me come back couple days later to replace and restretch the chain link so he knows he did wrong and in sure he wont do it again.
Apparently, it was darn near impossible to miss, since he didn't.
Guys.... I was just breaking horns....like I always do....if you only knew, all the whacky happenings that we go through, Lol....you would KNOW that I'm just commiserating!😜😜😜
Shoot! - I myself just cut a $200 libe on Wednesday, cause I was on the phone with bill collectors, while I was bucking a 50" Oak..... nobody to blame but my DAWGONE SELF!!! Too busy cussin' at the guy on the other end of the line....😂
You Sir, are one brave man. They could not pay me enough to do what you do.
Love the climbing saw looks easy to handle etc. Great doe 1 handed action. What's model number
I held my breathe watching the whole time... you tree guys are awesome .. I don't think I could do it... kudos to you climbers
Hey don't sweat it. In a way yes I understand it's your (Company, crew, etc) responsibility to make sure stuff like that isn't there, but in a way if the homeowner doesn't tell you if they have them or have them marked with paint, it's honestly on them in my opinion. I know that's not a good image for a company to tell the owner that or the right thing to do probably legally, but I think you understand what I'm getting at. Nice work regardless!
Since it's not the right thing to do, for your business reputation, or legally, then no - nobody can get what you're saying.
Okay you can't get out of something legally or maintain a good business reputation by calling the owner a dumbass for not having the lines marked. So yes, people know what I'm saying regardless of your personal comprehension on it. It's common sense to mark lines regardless of the material the lines are made of or what they're used for to let workers know what's below their feet. What if that was a gas line for some reason? That could've been a huge mess because of the homeowners negligence and lack of common sense.
Jay Doubleyhoo when I had my fence installed I had to have a guy come and identify lines in the ground. Wanna know why? The people making my fence doesn't have the responsibility to know where all the shit in my ground is, but to just make me my fence (btw the retards didn't even do it properly but unrelated).
lol - Do you see how the responsibility might shift, between a fence company, whom you are ASKING to dig in your property, by definition, and an arborist, whom you as the homeowner have NOT in any way, asked or permitted, to do any sort of "unearthing", intentional or otherwise?? You might not be a business owner, so these categorical differences may have no relevance to you...

Love the way you communicate with the other guys, positive affirmation goes a long way!
it's the Husky's fault. everything was going perfectly with the Stihl.
Isn't it always the way?

Drinking game: take a drink every time he says “nice”
Forget the "oops". You (and crew) are incredibly skilled at what is an incredibly hazardous job. Nothing but respect after watching that.
Nice videos. Do you paint the top covers on yer saws?
I love the way he says “cool” after every branch
69th branch cut. "Nice!"
Those poly lines are really easy to repair.. it probably wasn't even damaged either.
Now if it had been a gas line, that'd be a little scarier.. but those are usually much deeper.
iAndy wth where do you see poly. Every system I put in is fully dry and flex 1inch black poly main and lateral lines but this is a lateral pvc line. That shits twig, it just shatters. Junk system lol
doesnt look code compliant anyway. usually need at least 6 inches of depth when youre burying these types of things
It's really good to see a professional at work . like I said before you have came a long way in your skill
Nice job. I have been doing tree work for 15 years. I can tell you know what your doing with rigging. And nice job encouraging your crew. As far as the pipe hose, that happens to the beat of us.
For a 19 year old, I find working for a tree cutting service very entertaining. I'm 19 bout to turn 20 and I've been working with cutting trees for a few months but one thing I like more about your videos is how you climb the trees and cut off any branches, I just use a bucket but climbing would be making work so much more fun.
I thought you crushed a sprinkler head, not unearthed a line. Just get your branches to hit flat and not like shovels. You will be fine
FishFind3000 hi
Thanks, captain.
😎👉
Theres a relationship between the length of the piece being cut and the distance that it falls from that determines how it hits the ground...
👏👏👏
thats just incredibly unlucky lol. great job otherwise
It could have happened to anyone to have that happen the homeowner should have had those lines marked for your company
homeowners typically have zero idea where the irrigation guy ran the sprinkler lines.
Blake, they come through and mark them with spray paint. They obviously don'y know where they are, that's why they have them marked
Not the homeowner's "job" to do mark-outs.
(Having said that, Irrigation companies, unlike actual Utility Companies, could/should be providing schematics of their conduit, as a service to the client. Utility Companies are precluded from doing this for various logistical and legal reasons, but irrigation is different, and is on a property-by-property basis - nobody other than themselves stops them from providing this service.)
Nathan - If you are going to survive in the tree business, be ready to do TONS of legwork for your clients. Setting up mark-outs is just the ABC's.... There will be 12 other companies nearby, who will do this legwork, and that's just the way it goes....not only that, but, having taken care of the mark-outs, you still may lose the job to someone else....unless you have a magic system that will guard against that, Lol.....
At a party: what do you do
I cut down trees while standing on the tree. And say 3 word over and over again
Love ya brotha great videos
Also watched it at 2 am
I am very happy to see this video is very interesting because as of today I am starting up my very own business here in Texas d&w landscaping and tree service anyway I was just wondering if you can give me a little more information about the equipment you use the rope the harnesses stuff like that God bless you and have a good day I would like to talk to you more about it maybe you can send me a private message or maybe even text try to get a hold of me when you have time
