Great info! Always appreciate how clear you are at instructing proper / safe practices. This is (arguably) the best tree climbing instructional channel on this platform, IMO. Thanks Bino!
I have personally come across every scenario you mentioned , all by chance. im super glad you have a Utube channel like your, is a great class room tool, for so many people whom want to get into tree climbing. whether Its work or fun this great information . I have been chased by Bees , birds , had squirrels n other animals run down my back etc thanks for letting the new generation of tree people a great safe video for the next adventure .. Joe
OMG! I'm lucky to have made it out of my teens! No one ever told me climbing a tree is dangerous. All they ever told me was useless stuff like, "bee careful". Dumby me though they were telling me to "be" careful. Rot? Oh, i though those were just convenient grips and foot hold. So dangerous.. someone got a metal rod i can use whilst climbing around up in a tree? I wanna do it safely ya' know. Birds? Oh, man! Isn't that what we climb trees for? I want to go up and check in on how they're doing. Palm tree? No, i don't climb them. Fire works awesome for trimming those shaggy vests off of them. It's spectacular! Do it at night for all to enjoy, also its better for the environment because theres no smoke at night. Bug infestation? Fun!! Especially the crimchy kinds. Root separation? Hey, pro tip. If a tree has fallen over and the roots are trying to pull it back up, stand on the trunk with a chain saw and cut the trunk. Once the heavy top of the tree is cut lose, hold on! Its like climbing a tree without trying. A thrilling experience! Weeeeee! Power lines? Oh, unfortunately the utility companies keep the trees pretty trimmed around here. But i really liked seeing the smoke instantly emanate from the branch hitting that high tension line. So i decided to transplant a 40 foot weeping willow just below my neighbors power line. Who knows, i may even graze it as i bring it over with the tractor. A little teazer... One question. Is being "certifiable" as good as being "certified"? Its got to be at least nearly close enough, right?
My big brother in law raised me In tree care...he was climbing 🧗♂️ removals up 60ft a racoon jumped out of the main crotch on his chest and head area he fell ..but got lucky landing on brush piles breaking ribs ..
Im certified in climbing trees that are so close to a tree 😅. Nice job except that on word. I consider distribution to be primary(bare wires) and secondary to be what supplies a home (typically coated and home). Secondary doesn’t "phase"me lol, but primary I don’t get anywhere near, although ive dropped plenty of trees within striking distance. Be safe sire.
I won't go into a tree if there is lightening in the area. I also cut into a butt log with a 660 and destroyed a squirrels nest with baby squirrels and felt terrible. So I avoid squirrel nests also lol.

Wow, thanks!
I wish we had you here in Maine, Bino…you have it together!
I appreciate that. Thank you!

Thanks for watching!

That must have been scary!
Well done, Bino. I suspect it took a bit of work finding trees in each of the categories that you covered.
It sure did but we had fun working on it!
I always carry a pair of binoculars when I'm doing tree inspection. And I also Carrie a laser pointer to show stuff to a customer.
both are great tools to use

Yes I messed up on that part. Thanks for sharing!
@BinoH it's all good, we know what you meant.
Have a great week.
Bucket truck, you talked me into it!😅
Glad I could help!
Was that a peregrine falcon?
I think it was a Red Shoulder Hawk.
Thanks for these informations.
Our pleasure!
Another great video that explains a lot
Glad you think so!
What about ivy? East coast is loaded with poison ivy in trees
Yes that would be good reason not to climb a tree.
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻🇬🇧
Thank you!

Think positive - squirrels attack bird nests all the time. Still sad though.
thanks for sharing
I think it’s cool that you actually try to TEACH people instead of just trying to get subscribers and likes 🫡💪🏻
Thank you!
