That's a nasty one. Very very quick too. At the end the saw going round the pole reminded me of swingball

Only seen it on small screen but to me it looks like he had his topping strop set just below the botttom of the scarf. I can't see a pulley of any kind and it looks like at least a quarter of the tree on the rigging rope. The rope didnt run pulling the head down until the rope snapped. Massive catapault. Hope the guy is OK. Massive lesson in cutting smaller right there.

I bet it made him squint.

 

His bottom?

Topping down strop deffinatly snapped, also didn't have a pulley, the top didn't run down at all! Poor guy can happen to all of us!

 

Be safe out there!

It should be mandatory!

 

It would be a union flag though since it can only be a Union Jack if hoisted on a jackstaff.

That would have been all wrong particularly yesterday, my flag is the cross of St George.
