  5. On a more serious note, do you subscribe to these theories (yes you will need to watch it:001_tt2:) Would like to hear someone else's opinions on it:biggrin:
  6. I like the bit round 27-29mins where he kind of goes off on a tangent after a question about dynamic wind loads, basically saying that trees with small reductions where prone to higher wind loads on the stem as they didn't have as many flexible branches absorbing the dynamic forces:biggrin:

  21. Is yours being filmed and documented? Sent from my Galaxy S2
  22. I hope I do, but the trip is more about helping the people over there understand how important their trees are to them, and the interaction with the local villages in the community. A completely different way of life, and probably one that'll be a real shock to the system, in a good way:thumbup1: Sent from my Galaxy S2
