[Shansen]

I usually do 3 like that before breakfast....

 

well, only if I have nightmares. That was one scary looking tree!

 

Yeah, that thing was all rotten and crazy big.

That guy must have balls like chirch bells.I bet he sleeps well.

Watched that vid twice awsome!!!

I would like to climb one that was healthy but in all honesty i would struggle.

I really would not have wanted to give up my high tie in. I am sure there was a good reason but just standing on that soft snag without even a worst case scenario tie in.....scary.

id imagine by the time he's spent a day or however long it took him chunking off the smaller stuff, by the time he got to the bigger stuff he'd gained a bit of confidence in the wood.....maybe.

im assuming he didnt have much of an alternative?

[Old Monkey]

I have wondered if some dead trees become less stable after you take their tops out. I know that eucalyptus split vertically as you take chunks off. The sound of green eucs splitting as you chunk them down can be intimidating. That dead stick was already pretty split up.

[jpbeaver]

that was awesome. they must of had BIG money on that tree.

[vduben]

id do it for a tonne a day:beer:

[Mr Ed]
