Tree Fell on a House. How to Remove tree without a crane.
Вставка
- Опубліковано 10 лип 2020
- Prior Tree Service company's told the customer this removal was not possible without a Crane. We proved that notorious statement wrong again. Anything is possible . Took about 5 hours. Storm caused this tulip poplar tree too fall onto the customers house, we removed the tree by span rigging from neighboring trees.

Brad's tree service is amazing. I've never seen such discipline and finesse w/ so much at stake. Brilliant craft work.
Thank you very much
Awesome job! Never seen something as intricately dangerous is that pulled off so nicely. This guy has a really good understanding of the physics involved.
Thank you so much! I am am super passionate about my work and always trying to improve!
I hope you have a wonderful week!
great job after 2 falls could never be a climber always a ground man but you had great communication and under standing with your ground man keep up the good work and be the best aborest for the next gen. God Bless
Wow, well it's good that you are ok after those falls. Thank you for the kind words
Brilliant work. I was waiting inpatiently at around 6 minutes in the video for you to detach your orange flipline, i honestly started sweating for a moment. Pure class, those must be some exellent gloves too, i cant stand gloves in combination with tree work.
Much respect!
Lol, yea that tells me you have experience with this. Gloves, I can't work with out them, it's always either or.
Thank you for the comment
Great job!
Too many people try to do too much all at once.
Much easier to break jobs into manageable tasks.
You seem to have a good head on your shoulders.
Be well!
Thanks for cool video!
Thank you very much
This is awesome. In theorizing how to get tough jobs done without having access to expensive machinery I've been looking for videos like this.
Thank you. I am definitely a believer in getting anything done with or without all the available resources. I like to challenge people who say you can not do without said resources
And now you are going to tell us that you even saved the Sat dish which is still working! Great job, well done.
Lol
Great Job. Well thought out. Planning a job is most exciting for me. Of course so much can change once you're climbing and working.
This is a great comment. I love technical rigging, it's what keeps me passionate. Other work bores me, you know every rigging situation is different. Each tree removal is like a fingerprint, none are the same. Planning out each situation gets my gears going, sometimes it leads to fancy new gear, and then you wind up not even using some of it but it will wind up being useful for lots of other jobs.
that is some amazing work! smart to take off flip-line off before making the cut to release main trunk. gutsy for sure! stay safe.
Thank you very much, it was a situation for sure, lol
You to, stay safe
This was clean. I’m impressed
Thank you so much! Hope your week is going well!
That was awesome. You are like Spiderman.
Lol, thank you, I appreciate that, lol
Nice work. First no one was injured, second no further damage to home.
Thanks
Good call on the choice to go no lanyard on that larger cut in my opinion.
Yea I was definitely expecting some drop
I said the same thing to myself when I saw that. Thinking ahead is good.
job well flipping done. a* . i noticed how u detached your flip line on the main stem doing that cut, lol would have gone for a ride if if it bounced up lol. noticed you didn't do any undercuts comming down the stem lol same here, you do flap it a little tho, thinking hope it doesn't cut the rope. perfect job fella. hope homeowners gave you a cup of tea and a phat tip for your sterling effort. how all tree jobs should be done.
I see you have experience😁 thank you very much. I hope you have a great week.
@@bradstreeservicellc2894 yeh fellow arborist here. you stay cool as well man.
Love the rope work.
Thnak you buddy, be safe
Thumbs up guys. Nerve racking with success. Good work, good job. Stay safe.
Thank you bro, and same to you
That was outstanding work and most enjoyable to watch. I love to see younger folk worker tough jobs manually without the benefit of heavy equipment. The team work and quality displayed on that job backed up by that review does you and your team's reputation well and nice to see it documented in the customer review.
Thank you very much, hearing this, motivates us to work even harder do a exceptional job, and network with good people.
His gaffs must be short, guess the roof isnt getting poked. 4-15-24
Amazing planning and skill. Never seen anything like this done before. Glad I found your channel.
Thank you very much, I will be sure to make more technical rigging videos.
That was pretty cool. Nice job
Thank you. Let me know what else you would like to see
Very cool and neat cutting from the man on the tree.
Thank you
Nice work, well thought out.
Thank you I appreciate it
Greetings and compliments from England - lovely job, thoughtfully planned, well executed. I have a question and an observation. Q: Did you & the ground crew talk through the entire plan before starting, or explain each step as it was arrived at? There are pros & cons to each approach. The observation is that after your (spotless) cleanup of the several back yards, it was really noticeable how lifeless - sterile even - they were. Nature, bursting with interest and variety just beyond their back fences (save for the bit now blown down!) but these people appeared not to want any of the natural world INSIDE, and close to them. This attitude is catching on in England too.
Thank you.
Yes, me and the crew did make a plan prior to starting, it doesn't always go exactly according to the plan, but we always execute the task.
You are right, alot of people now a days, feel bothered or scared of trees that are within close proximity of the house. I have been studying alot more into tree health and treatment. As well as properly planting new trees and ensuring a healthy life from the start
One hell of a good and great job. my 8 year old son asked me was you Superman.
Thank you very much
i worked for a tree trimmer 1 day that was enough for me. tornado put big trees on roofs dozens of homes & 1 church 1 bank parking lot massive tree branches tangled in power lines & cable tv cables everywhere the back yards had no access for bucket truck or skidloader every tree had to be diced up carried up front by hand to skidloader so we could fill a 12 yard dump truck more times than i remember. super super hot/humid raining all day kids running around everywhere they looked like ants on the ground i spent the day up on slippery wet roofs trying not to fall kept thinking it'll be a miracle if i survive the day never got paid & dont care just happy to be alive
Wow, that is a horrible experience, sorry that happened. Not all companys are like that
I saw it but don't believe it, you gug's are over the top? Great Job. See Ya, Texas
Thank you from md, Texas is awesome!
Impressive, great job, ive gotten some trees off some houses in a similar way but not quite like this
Thank you, stay safe out there
Amazing skills! I'm a new subscriber.
Thank you, and welcome to the channel
Very impressive outcome. Maybe it was my viewing angle, I was worried your two lines wouldn't be able to handle the heavy weight of the main stem when cut free from the building.
Thanks, we estimated that section of trunk would be around 4klbs. The bull line used, was 3/4 low stretch 28k mbs each. We actually could have used 1 but the 2 line was for control, to keep the log from swaying left to right
the decisive cut worked well, good that there are such courageous people, take care of you
Thanks I was confident about making the cut
Great job!!! That orange lanyard looks a little tatty in one spot.
Thank you, and yes it needed to be replaced.
Money for fresh lanyards doesn't grow on trees....🤷🏻♂️
Great, good solutions!
Thank you
That was an awesome job 👏👍💪😎
Thanks man
Great job on that tree
Thank you
Awesome video brother
Thank you
Nice job.
Thank you, have a great week
Well done guys, and you left the place spotless.
Thank you
How much did you charge?
危険な作業を完璧にこなす姿に秀樹感激Goodです=3
Nice work.
Thank you
Thank you
Great video guys
Chunking down with finnesse
🤙
Nice Job!!!! I too worked for tree company years ago. Some of these guys are just awesome with ropes and pulleys
Thank you, yea it is
Very professional
Thank you
@@bradstreeservicellc2894 your welcome my friend
Excellent work. Love the finesse on the downed log/downed fence at the end of the vid.
Thank you, yea we enjoyed setting it up
At 5:29, it looks like your orange safety rope had been compromised in 2 spots. How often do you have to change them out?
It was just an old steel core lanyard, the outer cover is damaged but there is a steel wire cable undamaged.
If you notice i am never tied in with a positioning lanyard by itself, this lanyard has been replaced. Now as a professional, I do equipment checks daily, to make sure I believe what I will use is operational
THE TREE MAN IS GOOD.
LMAO Heck yea brother! Most times guys will never look at the surrounding trees. About to do a similar set up but the crane is coming just in case. There is a lady in the room who can not be moved under the tree so I am not risking anything at all and backup on back up. Also my support trees are 60ft+ away lol.
Rezzy Beans, That is awesome. Godbless you for helping people in need. You get an mvp from me.
Do you have a youtube channel? Id love to see it. There isnt enough technical rigging videos in my opinion
@@bradstreeservicellc2894 working on it . Messing around with the new go pro and editing software now.
Rezzy Beans Thats awesome, would love to see it for sure
On this job, how much time was spent rigging before the saw work began?
About 3 hours, Athough. We were the only option, 165 footer with a weight looked at it and wouldn't do it, so....
This was necessary. We actually get hired to do alot of stuff cranes won't do. Yes it does take time, but time isn't the issue, it's specialty.
Thank you for watching 🙂
Great work. Would like to see shots from the ground edited in. 🖖
Thank you, I do have some clips left over that I didn't use, I think at that time I was limited on cameras 😅
Now I'm thinking about strapping gopros onto my groundies helmets
I hope that was bid high with the risk and time required to set up all those lines, what did you use to tension the 2 lines used to hold up the spar?
I believe the bill was around 3200
To tension the lines we use a rope grab, pulley, carbiner, port a wrap to create a 3:1 and capture progress with Porta wrap
@@bradstreeservicellc2894 im gonna give that a try if I come across any hazard roof picks
I was happy with the overall process, it is a good system to keep in mind
That frayed safety line at 5:50 had me worried.
I still have that lanyard😅, it was my favorite, I have a new one now
Don't look at mine. The open cable will cut ya just from a quick glance.😜
You DO know it's got a steel wire in it right?
@@ALL4SCUBA05 I would assume it does and it's been closely examined but still, if its been cut the wire might be suspect too. I'm not sure I would trust my life with it.
yur nutts little squirel .haha dish
Job well done
Thank you
Nice. Especially like the Tarzan moves & rigging
Thanks lol
How do you get the rope that you climbed up secured?
I used a throw ball, throw line, and shooter
Let me know if you would like to see a "how to," video on setup
@@bradstreeservicellc2894 yes please! That would be awesome.
Buen trajo y lipio Los felicity
Excellent work and good video…subscribed. Thanks 👍🏻
Thank you very much
Mad skills bro. I love seeing other climbers using industry techniques in a creative way. If I could encourage you to consider a pair of chainsaw pants, I think they are worth the cost and discomfort. Good pants are $350 but the 9 little stitches in my knee were $1,300 🤷♂️
Your definitely right, thank you. We are trying to be as safe as possible
Hello, I get dizzy while watching, although I also have a tree work company in Germany, I'm 65 years old now, the company has been around for 36 years, greetings across the pond
That's great, congrats. I have only been climbing for 11 years
Sweet!
Thank ya!
Nice and safe rigging there guys! Really impressive to arm chair watch! Hi Hi
Thank you
"A tree fell on a house", sounds like the opening line to a joke O.o
did he get some free air time there? I dont think he expected that.
It was expected
Good job guys!
Thank you!
Really impresive work indeed! Just one thought, maybe it would be less violent if the facecut on the "big cut" was made facing more uppwards, and hopefully it would break slowly instead of that snap?
Anyway, always easy sitting here on youtube afterward and commeting, this is true profesionalls in work, 5/5!
/Swedish tree feller/tree climber
Thank you very much! And yes, I think that if the face cut was in line with the rigging point, the fiber may have held longer. However my only reason for notching it slightly left rather then upwards, was to direct the piece away from myself.
It's nice to get feedback from other climbers, this youtube thig is pretty cool🤙
Wow !
beautiful rigging and cut at 6:30.. all together great job.. using gravity because it's free and always works the same!
Thank you Daniel Murphy! It's really awesome you commented, I've been watching your channel for years, learned some good info from you.
@@bradstreeservicellc2894 so many wouldn't touch that job without a crane. good to see you showing what is possible. Nice set up. technical and totally dialed in.
Thank you, I've seen you setup some really great rigging scenarios. It's great that we have infinite knowledge available on this platform, everyone chips in, everyone benefits
Gotta agree mr murphy is great tutor
@@lucfournier3939 - So Luc, how'd'ya like that cut, eh? I liked it.😜
Huge problem would be if you didn't have neighbor trees to secure the fallen one. I have such a case tomorrow.....There is a tree, not very strong to hold and also sideways....
There are also other methods if you do not have a tree nearby
Wish I knew! I'll go on Thursday...
@@Greek_Arborist you can do anything that you put your mind to. You got this. Just be careful and think your plan out well and execute.
Here is something that could make help you. Tree on house. No trees imeadiatly close but you can use the concept you may have to copy and past the link

Nice work, maybe should have covered the ac unit from getting sawdust in it.
Your right!
Great job!
I helped a guy for a couple years while he was getting his tree service up and running. Most people don't have a clue the money that it cost for the equipment that's involved.
Worst one we had was a huge maple that fell on a church. They had to get a crane for it.
I'm just to old anymore and hung it up last year, but I still cut firewood.
Yea, it takes alot of money to keep it going. I'm either in a tree or working on something.
Atleast your still doing firewood, guess once your in it, your in it for life.
@@bradstreeservicellc2894 actually I'm headed out in the morning to get firewood for next year. A guy has already cut 3 trees down and said he is cutting another 5 or 6 down this weekend. Told me if I wanted the wood to come and get it. Kinda hard to turn down oak and maple for next year.
Hell yeah
Thanks bro, I appreciate it🤙 stay knarly bro!
24 seconds in you sound like hank hill
😅
That is some crazy shit
Well done lads safe job no stress
Thank you
Nice job, to your credit, from South East U.Kingdom
Thank you
I hope you gave them folks a good spanking for leaving that Tulip Poplar with that horrible split base to stand and wait around to fall on the house!!!🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️
Yeaaaa, I definitely very clearly informed them, but this was hoa and they would not have us do the other portion. Merry Christmas brother
@@bradstreeservicellc2894- Merry Christmas to you and yours! Stay safe in the coming year!
Good job
Man I got the hugest pacon tree on top my trailer ida put it there the trunk 4 big min can’t hug this tree and touch hands. It on top my kitchen window and right under it is the sewage treatment plant. God I need advise on this
Awesome!
Thanks
I say good call to remove your lanyard at the 5:50 mark. I'd hate to see you go for that ride if the butt end of that log slid.
Thanks, yea I knew the stem would drop some, so I didn't want to be attached. Good eye
Tree guy here. This was bad ass
🤙
looks like your moneys worth out of that lanyard haha
You got that right, lol
I have newer ones, I just love the feel of my older one
That’s cool 😎 I can show you how to cut it in half
🤘
I'd be getting tangled in those ropes and dangling off the log.
Tim....it happens to the best of us, lol
Good job. Don't get too famous on UA-cam, crew will want "Super Star" wages, maybe limo's.
😄 Your absolutely right, my guys are already spoiled.
Imparate prima a fare i video e poi li fate vedere. Che per vederli gira tutta la testa.
Get a grcs, it'll go a lot quicker.
I didn't at that time

Until your insurance co sees this. Dropped.
🤣 this comment is really funny because I was referred this job from my insurance broker, actually my insurance broker is a good friend, can't imagine he would drop me?🤷♂️💯
Especially with all the nice kickbacks he gets off job refferals.
@thewhiteknight02 As a contract climber could you tell me why his insurance would even think about dropping him? Other than a single cut without being double tied in? And your qualifications sir? Even then with the drop of the log from resting and a high tie in if he would of stayed double tied in he would of been pulled possibly hurting himself more? Good work Brad. Liked the ingenuity and patience for your craft and not charging cost of unneeded crane. Stay humble and work hard!
Thank you so much bro💪
I don't get some people, lol
People are just that people. Don't gotta get them just say ok and thank you. You do good work and keep the Ego out of it. That is a mark of good treeman imo.
We're you really scared or was you shooting the BS ? The reason I ask is , Maybe people will be reluctant to hire you. I know you're probably insured
But I don't think most homeowners could sleep good at night knowing someone fell of their roof and got killed.
Yea no, I was just joking, thank you for pointing that out
