Anyone seen this video? One word- stumps!

Proper tractor slayer that stump, I can feel the jolt of a machine hitting it through my spine from watching it

Ground Control insisted on the lads having leaf blower tickets on the WPD contract (I believe at the client’s request). These are lads that they are employing (and who are qualified, experienced and authorised) to operate chainsaws from a rope and harness whilst tied into an anchor point of unknown strength next to live electrical power lines...

You have to question the thought process of those making the rules sometimes! 

Unfortunately that type of brainless tick-box exercise undoubtedly dreamt up by someone sat behind a desk thinking up ways of reducing accidents can then possibly lead to other much more important health and safety messages not being taken as seriously as they should IMO.

I have the electric tooth brush ticket ...

I assume the height of the stump is to make the demonstration and test easier.

 

I suppose the leaf blowing and operating a walk behind lawnmower thing is a bit of a joke, but as for the rest of it, forklifts, telehandlers, chippers etc. I can’t see how some very basic instruction can hurt.

come on, it's easy to knock videos like this.

I for one have now realised I have been walking behind my lawn mower with a completely wrong gait. and as for the trunk, have you seen how old the bloke is? you can't expect him to bend down too far

The instructor at 0:40 took me for my chainsaw in the harness and various assessments, he's 60 and an amazing climber.

I think everyone needs a leaf blower ticket, just to be safe
