  7. its alright, but a bit tedious..... "and after the break, jonny is gonna cut down some more trees that look the same as the last ones - its a mighty dangerous job and he might get seriously hurt, but he won't" all these shows do is play on the fact that its potentially dangerous and something might happen, but never does. i spent a whole season of ice road truckers wishing that prat 'ice road rick' would fall into the water below.

    Loler

    A couple of questions. What are the implications of not having your climbing kit tested every 6 months? If you were to have an accident whilst in the tree, would an accident insurance company ask for loler records? Would they even know what loler is?
