Oh dear God that must have hurt!

 

They should put that on prime time TV as a public safety awareness video. Might give folk an idea that arb professionals are there for a reason!

[Martyn Amos]

i must be honest when i saw the start and he came to the camera,and did the holy mary and then the branch came down on him:lol:

but after watching the full clip i was not laughing,that fella did himself some serious damage:001_huh:

[slasherscot]

he must have been up the tree already, i cant see his top cut, yuck cant watch it twice

[daveindales]

Hope it gets a lot of hits on youtube. Might put a few people off diy tree surgery and save anymore needless injuries. still making me cringe everytime I watch it. hope he's on the mend

[burrell_]

oh my god i bet that hurt makes u think

poor little saw it ent done nothing wrong and yet it still gets thrown out the tree

[skyhuck]

I feel quite sick after watching that.

 

He is a tough old cookie, he did not squeal much!!!

 

Why do some people not have the ability to look at something and realise whats going to happen? where did he think it was going to go???

Did you have to wait until tea time to put that vid up? liked the little smirk on the rescue guy's face when he went to turn the camera off.
