Can't tell 100% from the video but looks like a direct tip tie? Any merit to running the rigging rope to the tree further in the background and letting the cut tree down on a V?

Am in a rush sorry for the terrible pictures but the spars supporting the tree were not high enough to get a good angle to tip tie wear it was tied was the optimum position the tree been lowered was nearly horizontal when I initially got out on it to put the rop in u can't see the tree been lowered in the pic its so low down in all the ivy mess IMG-20201114-WA0009.jpeg

Lucky that stem you knocked over did not reach those 2 logs and catapult it into spaceemoji23.pngemoji23.png I'll bet it was further away than it looks

It was, indeed, a mile away, but I’ve got that wrong before and watched in horror as it launches itself.
