We had one do that in one of the wood we manage. Wot terrified us was our county council tree offficer said to monitor despite it being over a busy bridleway. 2 days later a member of the public reported a tree that had fallen across the track. The branches of the other trees were still settling on the ground when we arrived

To go along with the onamatipaeic thread title: if a tree falls in a forest and no one is around to hear it does it make a sound? I'll get me coat:001_smile:

 

No.

 

The vibrations and other things that make up "sound" only become "sound" once they have passed through an auditory device such as an ear. So if there is no one there to hear it, it makes no sound :001_smile:
