Analyse This

[Haironyourchest]

Ok, here's an idea for a thread - lets post vids of people doing dangerous things with chainsaws and then analyse and discuss. I'm sticking this one up as it's just come online this evening. I was horrified at certain points. I suppose most everyone on here will instantly identify the moment of maximal danger in the vid, but maybe give some of the less experienced members a chance to think about it and comment? I don't know, maybe this idea is a late night waste of time...I'd me keen to scrutinise any vids other members can find and share though, but not the obvious fails, obviously.

It’s a good idea. A lot of the “funny chainsaw fails” are good instruction ie “can’t you see that is going to happen you redneck”

Unbelievable,  I see this was put up yesterday, wonder how they got on today,......at least the guy noticed that they were just as dangerous as each other !!  ?

I stopped watching Wranglerstar a few years ago when he endorsed Trump. he seemed to know his way around a chainsaw when I was watching but why would he not comment on the problem techniques? all he had to say was, "watch the nose for kickback", "that will pinch your saw","the tension on the gas saw needs tightening", "your face being 6 inches away from a woman with a chainsaw isn't a good idea" etc

All Americans on YouTube think PPE is a pair of sunglasses.

Well, my OMG moment is the ten seconds after 2:20, when he rushes to catch a bit of her plank that under no circumstances needed catching - and gets both his hands right up in her sawing zone... absolutely bonkers.

I thought his green shirt was awful !  Will he go to prison for using that T540 on the ground ?

He lives in Washington (blue state) so probably, yes. But in Georgia you're allowed to use top handles on the ground - two saws at the same time if you wish, one in each hand, in public! No limitation on bar length neither.

What's right with this???
