Why you should have to get certified before being able to buy a chainsaw!!!

I agree the guy should be certified.

And what part exactly did the chainsaw play?

I cut bigger branches with a bowsaw, yes, up a tree, at 12 or 13 or 14, before I was trusted with the chainsaw.

Which I did not take up a tree until much older.

A failure to understand simple mechanics was his failing.

Darn all to do wit der chainsaw operation(which was pretty sharp, by the looks of it!)

PS

Was the branch hung up on a wire "out of screen view"

That too was(or should of been) easily factored in.

PPS

A very bad sign when the operator crosses himself before commencing.

I bet if he didn't have a chainsaw he wouldn't have tried the DIY route, if all he had was a bow saw and even bothered he would have aborted after 20minutes of huffing and puffing!!!

Indeed, a fair observation.

I've seen this a few times from different posters and still can't see why he had the branch hung up, it could have just dropped it was in an empty yard.

Hold up gents. Blessing himself before he breaks his false leg? This is Youtube.

Good point about training but this is good ol' U S of A! Sorry no it's blighty where men build all sorts of contraptions in their sheds and do DIY at the weekend. Have you seen A and E on a bank holiday?

I think there must be a wall of another building just out of shot to the left as you view the clip . The springy brashy ends have sprung it back toward him as it parts ? possibly ...
