    Add this to my list of jobs I wouldn’t do even if you paid me a zillion dollars. Skyscraper window washer, crane operator, tall ship sail letter-outer, transmission tower technician. Literally any job that’s more than six feet off the ground, I’m out.
    Huge respect to these guys.

    This brings back memories. i did this for over 40 years. Tree removals were my specialty. It was always interesting determining where to make the pie cuts, which way the branch would go when lowering and the like. I am now 72 years old and those days are in the past, but it was great to watch you guys in action. Very professional.

    I climbed thousands of trees as part of my forestry job. Mensuration and folia sampling etc, we ALL hated climbing dead trees. You were really just guessing how structurally sound the tree was. We had trees as big as this one fall or break when we had people up them.
    It looked dangerous and it was. Pretty amazing effort.

    Very nice work Harry. I saw no real improvements to be made. Couple of potentials;
    At 6.00 minutes. Protect your uphill hinge as much as possible when swinging side lean especially on short grain stuff like gum. Straighter that back cut is the easier they fold over.
    I don’t reckon this tree maxed out your fuel capacity but I grew a valuable and silently rewarding habit of switching off after almost every cut. Saves heaps of fuel and a bit of noise and heat.
    AAA+++

  • @raymondpetrovits2336

    The climber ascends knowing the tree is absolutely dead before going up. Confidence is off the charts not to mention the absolute skill once you are up there. I have been skydiving but was more comfortable jumping out at 15,000 feet because of my chute. Up there you are all by yourself and nothing else.

There’s not many of us left who can work like that on a tree like that. Take care be safe.

      you can definitely see and feel when the tree is too dangerous to climb, and and know when your pushing the limits. this tree although very dead, still had good structural integrity close to the trunk and main forks. only the ends of the branches were getting rotten and brittle.
