Great instruction, has given me some inspiration

What kind of madness is this climbing with 2 ropes?

John Hancock, keep grinding

I walked up there the other day and about 100 meters before there I saw a strange Pink object about 1 foot in diameter on a mowed bit of grass. . Any ideas what it was ?

hello. what is the lightning trigger model that you use?

When you punch holes into the canopy, you increase the specific surface area. Therefore the load that the wind creates increases.

Awesome work! We'd like to collaborate, how can we get in touch? :)

can you eat that fungi on the roots?

You have a rare gift for teaching, John! I struggled with focus stacking for too long then your tutorial on this subject appeared and, for me, the nickel dropped!! Too many assume that we are all born with the skills that you have perfected....taint so! Thanks, John, ever so much!

Hi John. Wondering if you have a website for your arborist work. Intrigued.

Can you add that you carried out a resonance test using a sounding hammer on your report? Great video 😊

Great video.

Outstanding video, John! I especially like your running dialog with your philosophy on nature! Would you share with me the lens you are using? Many thanks!

What a pro!

Fron PS i would not save as jpeg when you import back to lightroom

Great job as always, very inspirational.

Wonderful captures but i wonder why don´t you use the focus bracketing option from your camera? best all, Remus

You're such a fun guy, Richard.

What is the tripod you used, it looks very effective and stable.

i have my aerial rescue assessment in a few days, this was super helpful!

How is the tree now please ? Is there any hope she can flourish again?

Hi were you able to visit the rest of the base ?

The use of a cambium saver is a great idea but why only on one of the ropes, surely the second rope is going to cause as much damage to the tree. Coming from a rock climbing background it's an absolute no-no to have your ropes rubbing like this. Using two anchor points, how difficult is it to manage positioning (of effectively two systems) with one hand if you need the other for balance/stability/holding on? This seems to be a major drawback of having two anchor ropes. I don't think the rope access industry has this problem because they are working two dimensional. I do wonder whether the HSE, in their zeal to make an industry 'safer' have not shot themselves (and us) in the foot and made things more complicated and possibly less safe.

Looks to be a great turnout. Thank you for sharing.🐴

Nice video 👍

Nice video about the process of taking the photo. Would love to see another one with the post processing :)

This tree was a symbol of the old and ancient order of the world.

Nice and simple straight forward instructions

What is the cambium saver used for?

Bridget Jones's Diary location 😍 Thanks for sharing this beautiful location

Any footage of the 806??

Hi John, are these available for purchase please? There's only 1 of me at the end (unless you have any more) but I'd love to buy it. Red 206 reg MD04 WUB. Thank you!

Morning, if I get time I’ll dig out the individual video, each one is about 16 seconds long in total 👍

Hi John! Is there a way I could use a tiny bit of footage? The "off road" 306 and there is a satin grey one too with "piggy" front number plate... Did you get any of that? 😀 Thanks for videoing and uploading so quick!

super :)

😍😍😍😍

👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

Cheers John, great info well explained.

How to describe this charming English village in snow..so beautiful ❤❤

So sad 🥲

Rootrain doesn't cost an arm and a leg

Nice work. I see that you waited a good long time, so well done. I spent a fair bit of growing up time on that seafront and saw a few hefty boulders washed right up onto the road. Nowadays, whenever there's a storm in the news, I check the papers for the obligatory pic from Porthcawl. KA-BOOM! Now that's wave action.

Hi John, I used to live in croome many years ago, I came across some old bunkers there but i dont think they are these ones. I still know a couple people live there if i go back I wouldnt mind to have a look if you could pinpoint them for me please? many thanks

Using 2 ropes is awesome when it benefits your positioning abilities and it’s a big open canopy like this, but in the real world it’s rarely like that not for me anyway. Plus if someone is willing to clime the good old tried and tested way with one rope an a lanyard there gunna work faster more efficiently and make more money! Also If I ever need rescuing from the tree and you mess about setting 2 lines before saving me you will nether work with me again. The HSE have just lumped us tree climbers in with all the rope access workers like window cleaners and others who just go up and dawn a clear path with no or very little obstacles in the way with a nice preinstalled anchor point. Whereas we work in a very complicated, dynamic, three dimensional environment where it is just NOT PRACTICAL to be constantly managing 2 rope systems! Anyway rant over it’s law now anyway so if you don’t do it when it’s technically possible to do it and you get injured you best kiss any insurance payouts goodbye that’s what really boils my blood but whatever I still think we do the best job in the world but I wish they would just leave us alone and let us get on with it 🤬😒

i want to learn how to do this just for the fun of doing so, do you know of any good training centres around the Birmingham area or close to it ?

So is this the new standard ? We have to now use the extra system at each point as a backup. I climb drt on a hitchclimber and blakes on the other end, I set the hitchclimber to O rig when I reach my anchor. So, if I use the two ends and the side strop all the time on the way to the main anchor, is it then acceptable to send for a second line to be sent up, which is pre tied at a base anchor, run it through a natural fork near the main anchor, and then use a device such as an ART positioner running on that single line as the backup ?

Can you remove it? If so how?

Did you mention what tripod you are using? I might have missed it. Can you tell me what it is please?
