I'm no psycho tree-hugger, just a sportsman and balanced conservationist, but as I grow older myself and gain more wisdom and appreciation for TIME, whenever I see a majestic old growth tree like that felled my heart winces and breaks... What withstood eons of challenges is gone forever in mere hours for a very short term use or profit. Yes trees are "renewable" but at 100-500-1,000+yrs old they should be left untouched.

And the Americans talking bad about Brazilians, making it worse, I as a Brazilian am of the opinion that we should pass the current and cut down all the trees there in the Amazon and set fire to everything, then it end the world's greed for that forest that is only ours and not the world's ends. I will take care of Alaska that is very poorly maintained
I couldn't care any less about the tree. Nature destroys trees everyday somewhere with hurricanes, tornadoes etc. and kills the birds and animals that live in them. If nature doesn't give a damn, neither do I. It's the core principle of agency.
And Americans want to get involved in what we do with our Amazon, they will worry about Alaska, which is already polluted and modified. Countries do not want the good of the Amazon, what they want is the Amazon
Es lo que tu mente quiere ver y entender,pero de todo en la tierra el hombre puede aprovechar y sacar beneficios,siempre y cuándo sea equitativo y por cada árbol derribado,se planten dos.
That tree couldn't harm any more people after they cut it down. Bravo you saved people from that hundreds of years old tree. It went to make plywood you made the world a better place. On behalf of my 3 kids, thank you for improving the world

Does your house have any 2 x 4s ? How about the paper you write on? Why do you people get so emotional about everything? In about one or two hundred years when we are long gone there will be others like it. People seem to overlook the fact that while man does destroy a lot, he also has created a great deal. No thing was created from nothing.
Everybody loves a spectacular pine specimen like that, especially the loggers. But there are times where it makes sense to remove them. I suspect this is salvage logging, and they leave many dead old-growth for habitat. A tree will grow in its place, and cut pine will serve honorably duty housing several families.
Thank Goodness they finally tracked down that super dangerous stump before anyone else was attacked by it. Hats off to all the brave men and women lightning fast response. Gladly headlines were not sensationalized.

Trees of that size are no longer cut in the USA with the exception of cutting trees that serve a larger purpose. (Infestation,disease,potential for structural failure) etc. Our production tree mills have scaled down years ago. Only a small number of lumber producers have the equipment to handle trees of that size.
Yup... Hemp is the answer.. Not only can you make strong wood substitutes, but Concrete and most petroleum products.. There is a reason we don't grow hemp, the Barrons of the early 1900s would have not never made a profit. Same reason alcohol prohibition happened, cars ran on ethanol, and standard oil could not have that now. So much corruption
Неужели от безысходности пилят такие мощные и красивые деревья ? Скорее всего Алчность и жажда денег ! Такое дерево 1000 лет растить надо ! НЕ ПОНИМАЮ !!!
For those out there viewing this video and taking pity on the old tree being cut down, please make note with the dryness of the tree being cut with the lack of pitch in the wood and the powdery sawdust with the chainsaw; and around 9:15 into the video, the shriveled foliage on the tree branches. This was a tree bordering on being dead.
For every magnificent old-growth tree that is "harvested" a fee should be collected from whoever is profiting off this which would go to buying land with such ancient trees on it which would forever remain in trust. The supply of this kind of tree is not limitless.
Pause at 9:21 and you will see that Pine beetles have all but killed it. Once the foliage starts to die off, you only have a couple of months before the entire tree starts to die and ROT while still standing. Once it starts to decay, the wood is all but useless for boards and paper.
Just for fun! The sound of a majestic tree falling and the crackling sounds of hot coals is what I enjoy... Watching The Tucker Carlson Show on The Fox News Network is enjoyable as well!
Wow! The power behind this excavator is incredible! 😱 Watching it tear through those massive stumps is so satisfying. Can’t imagine a more efficient machine for the job! Anyone else blown away by the sheer speed of this thing? 🚜
That bloke is one very skilled operator. To make an accurate scarf (wedge) with such a long bar on such a large trunk takes an immense amount of experience and skill, but to do it when the angle (second) cut is made upwards rather than downwards is even more difficult. Given the plunge cut he initially made, I'm assuming the tree had a significant lean (or amount of weight) in the direction of the intended fall - and he was endeavouring to reduce the tension on the opposite side of the trunk (to his scarf and the intended direction of fall) and in order to reduce any possibility of any barber chair effect when he later made his final (back) cut).
That logger had some serious skills. Operating a giant chainsaw and swinging an axe with perfect precision. When the right skills meet the right tools, it is fascinating to watch. Not one wasted motion.
Do you hate that tree so much? It bothers you so much that you have to destroy it? All for the sake of a greedy lumber baron. What, does he need another 50 room mansion?! What a tragedy!

Reminds me of a paradox I was taught years ago, about how the places on earth with the most natural resources tend to have the poorest people. Because of their natural resources, the governments need people to gather the resources and don’t need to educate the people.. Meanwhile, places with few resources need to try harder to earn money, and their people end up educated and have nice amenities.
Those guys running the chain saw and hammering wedges into the cut lines are bad asses. I've cut down my share of trees but nothing as large as those guys are cutting and it never took me as long to drop the tree. One reason is because mine were nowhere near the size of the tree they were working on. Even in my best days, there's no way I could have hit those wedges nearly as much as they did. Hard work! Hope you fellas are getting paid big. Not many people can do what you're doing every day. And for the folks that are concerned about the big tree going away, most are old growth or planned forestation. They aren't out hacking trees they feel like knocking down. Besides... the house you're in now has lumber. If it's still a problem, sell your house and build a mud hut.
Trees have a lifespan just like all living things. The tree he’s removing is at the end of its life. Taking the wood isn’t hurting a damn thing…This is not “old growth”. People are so naive-when humans are extinct, the trees will grow and die just like they have been doing for the last million years.
What a big and beautiful old growth Ponderosa Pine tree. Loggers are a tough breed of people. Don’t worry! Pine trees are much more sustainable than hardwood trees! 😉
I guess they are cutting this huge tree to make furniture. That's what trees are for, among other things. Expects indeed, I wish I could know the name of this 🌳
Yep. No problem here harvesting trees responsibly and following up with restoration (which doesn't happen enough), but this seems like desecration of something historical. Not cool.
DANG, couldn't they see that the giant pine tree had been there a very long time and it wanted badly to live? Money can drive some men to do absolutely anything; even serve the devil himself. Also all I can say about the pine tree cutting debacle is that was a darn good chainsaw that fella was using. Also I got very tired watching him hammering in wedges to tip the poor pine tree. 🥺
Money will make otherwise good men do anything. If someone offered you $10 million dollars to cut down a thousand year old tree would you do it? I would like to think I would not do it, but that's the whole conundrum of the thing. I can tell you one thing though, the fat cats, and big businessmen that own these business don't have trees cut down around their mansions, and backyards!
@@Rotary_Phone ......yes when I was young and without a savior yes I would have been drooling at the mouth. But now that I live to tell people about the wonderful savior in Jesus Christ I don't need money. I live off of a retirement & SSA check and I don't live beyond my means that I've been gifted in and by Him. I have a peace in where I am going, I drive a 2000 dodge truck and live in a trailer on one acre of land. I have everything I need, especially a safe and comfortable (for me) life and knowing beyond a shadow of a doubt where my spirit/soul will spend eternity in love, safety and bliss with the Lord Jesus Christ and all who accept his sacrifice for sin, His shed blood. Sir, if you allow yourself to put the terrible things of this earth, where Satan reigns, down and accept Jesus you too can have a wonderful future of what's left here for you and what will happen with your spirit when your time expires. And I know you know your time here is approximately 70 or so years however "eternity" is forever. Your spirit will never die it will exist somewhere forever also. You can only enter Heaven through the shed blood of Jesus Christ our Lord. I pray you think about this and you too can live without all the pitfalls that are placed in front of you here. May God place someone in your life now that can help lead you to Him. Take care my friend. 🙏 p.s. No I, like you, would not cut this tree down. 😊
It’s not about the money, it’s an opportunity. People are opportunists, and leaving a tree standing means passing up on the opportunity. Some of us can do that, but it’s hard to expect Everyone to, so unless we have laws forbidding it, stopping it from being an opportunity (or an easy one at least), than someone’s likely to jump on it..
Да, но вроде как это дерево уже мертвое и сухое. Об этом говорит отвалившаяся кора, мелкие опилки жёлтого цвета, черный ствол под корой и крона там не зеленая.

True but there are far more responsible and sustainable ways to achieve that goal than what we see in modern society. We've been ravaging the earth and destroying ecosystems for personal and corporate greed at the expense of our long-term health and wellbeing. Frankly it's embarrassing. We can do better.
I was saddened to see this majestic tree felled but I understand the need for the wood. The workers doing the initial cut were truly highly skilled and precise.
@@astroboy483 It's a fricken filter. All plants filter out greenhouse gases (like CO2) and turns it into air we breathe. that, and it helps make more trees further down the road. SO yes, it accomplished far more than you have ever done in your life.

This looks like a tragedy to me. We have very few trees like that left in Oregon; there used to be millions.
Did you see how black the upper branches were and the burn scars on the lower trunk. That tree looked pretty dead to me.

I guess they are cutting this huge tree to make furniture. That's what trees are for, among other things. Expects indeed, I wish I could know the name of this 🌳
Tough and dangerous work even on a day when the weather is nice.
That’s a big god damn tree
Shame a few of these really old trees aren’t left dotted around to support wildlife species that can’t survive on young ones
like what, a ptaridactile ?
Yep. No problem here harvesting trees responsibly and following up with restoration (which doesn't happen enough), but this seems like desecration of something historical. Not cool.

Disgusting.
Hey great news then! It turns out that our government set aside 1 million acres of these dead bastards in Washington state alone
DANG, couldn't they see that the giant pine tree had been there a very long time and it wanted badly to live? Money can drive some men to do absolutely anything; even serve the devil himself.
Also all I can say about the pine tree cutting debacle is that was a darn good chainsaw that fella was using. Also I got very tired watching him hammering in wedges to tip the poor pine tree. 🥺
Money will make otherwise good men do anything. If someone offered you $10 million dollars to cut down a thousand year old tree would you do it? I would like to think I would not do it, but that's the whole conundrum of the thing. I can tell you one thing though, the fat cats, and big businessmen that own these business don't have trees cut down around their mansions, and backyards!
@@Rotary_Phone ......yes when I was young and without a savior yes I would have been drooling at the mouth.
But now that I live to tell people about the wonderful savior in Jesus Christ I don't need money. I live off of a retirement & SSA check and I don't live beyond my means that I've been gifted in and by Him.
I have a peace in where I am going, I drive a 2000 dodge truck and live in a trailer on one acre of land. I have everything I need, especially a safe and comfortable (for me) life and knowing beyond a shadow of a doubt where my spirit/soul will spend eternity in love, safety and bliss with the Lord Jesus Christ and all who accept his sacrifice for sin, His shed blood.
Sir, if you allow yourself to put the terrible things of this earth, where Satan reigns, down and accept Jesus you too can have a wonderful future of what's left here for you and what will happen with your spirit when your time expires. And I know you know your time here is approximately 70 or so years however "eternity" is forever. Your spirit will never die it will exist somewhere forever also. You can only enter Heaven through the shed blood of Jesus Christ our Lord. I pray you think about this and you too can live without all the pitfalls that are placed in front of you here. May God place someone in your life now that can help lead you to Him. Take care my friend. 🙏
p.s. No I, like you, would not cut this tree down. 😊
It’s not about the money, it’s an opportunity. People are opportunists, and leaving a tree standing means passing up on the opportunity. Some of us can do that, but it’s hard to expect Everyone to, so unless we have laws forbidding it, stopping it from being an opportunity (or an easy one at least), than someone’s likely to jump on it..
это дерево стояло не одну сотню лет. Пришёл человек и убил дерево.
Да, но вроде как это дерево уже мертвое и сухое. Об этом говорит отвалившаяся кора, мелкие опилки жёлтого цвета, черный ствол под корой и крона там не зеленая.
оно готовило нападение на человека, человек был вынужден провести специальную операцию
Redrum
1990, cutting down massive trees for a living. 2020, shoulders replaced, knees replaced, elbows hurt. Not for everyone
Save the tree - fundme
Not to mention, You can easily been killed 👌
I must have missed the dangerous stump removal but I did see a few seconds of dangerous hay collection😂
Missed the stump grinder all together.
The new trend is to put something nuts, or click-baity, in the preview, then you wade through the video to find it, they get more money.
@@wickedprotos1937 Does a downvote negate that? I will if so.
@@wickedprotos1937 So true, and often times you are never even shown that click-bait stuff even if you watch the entire clip.😬
Quantos anos viveu essa árvore 🌳 em questão de minutos perdeu o direito de viver.
How many years did this tree live 🌳 in a matter of minutes it lost the right to live

Long after man is gone just like the dinosaurs, there will again be plenty of thousand year old trees that thrive in thick forests.
The excavator isn't dangerous. Cutting the tree down is.
I also am sorry to see this healthy old tree be destroyed 😢
It's not too healthy now.
Excellent tradies who know their craft well. I wonder how commercially viable a lumber operation would be these days?
Crazy how good that chain saw was .. !
I've never seen a tree with bark like that! Real men with tools, mmm. Nice.
A coupleminutes of stump removal ? What the hell,Ipicked the video to watch stump removal Not tree felling, timber harvesting and timber hauling
easy way to remove tree stump just as long there's no gas pipes or water pipes underneath or around the tree
People forget we need to use these resources in our daily lives. Not everything can be made from reused materials over and over.
True but there are far more responsible and sustainable ways to achieve that goal than what we see in modern society. We've been ravaging the earth and destroying ecosystems for personal and corporate greed at the expense of our long-term health and wellbeing. Frankly it's embarrassing. We can do better.
1000 years of growth lost forever
I was saddened to see this majestic tree felled but I understand the need for the wood. The workers doing the initial cut were truly highly skilled and precise.

The old things in life will pave way to the newer things. This tree did survive many years, but it accomplished so much.
Accomplished what exactly? It is a plant. It grew. It could do little else.
@@astroboy483 It's a fricken filter. All plants filter out greenhouse gases (like CO2) and turns it into air we breathe. that, and it helps make more trees further down the road. SO yes, it accomplished far more than you have ever done in your life.
@@astroboy483that 1 tree did more than you and your whole family lineage ever did
It's very very sad! Don't cut trees plese!! Save the Planet 🎉
That's a hell of a tree I've cut some trees down in my life but I would not jump on something that big he is a pro and when that tree falls he is tired great video
Great video- amazing skills and unbelievable equipment!. Not just a tree,but a huge member of our eco-system..
Aí ficam de lá falando mal do Brasil como se somente no Brasil houvesse desmatamento. Onde está Greta, Di Caprio, Bunchen e Cia. para verem e protestar contra isso?
Then they stay there talking badly about Brazil as if only in Brazil there was deforestation. Where is Greta, Di Caprio, Bunchen and Co. to see and protest against it?
Remember, when it's extremely dangerous, it's important to get it done as quickly as possible.
This is where a drill and a stick of dynamite comes in. Honestly, I'm surprised such dangerous work isn't done by robots already.
The amount of risk and skill in this video is amazing
The amount of destructiveness and overexploitation is immeasurable
Wow, that's seriously intense! Watching this monster stump removal excavator in action is both thrilling and impressive. Thanks for sharing this fast-paced wood working machine!
que tristeza que corten un arbol asi... asi esta esta mundo... una pena verlo
I could never do that to a living tree! Never!
You can see the tree is dead. It looks to have died in a fire.
Even if it came at you with a knife?
OOOOOOOOOoooooooooooWEEEE!! Boy Howdy! That was some world class Stump Removal!!
Great video- amazing skills and unbelievable equipment!
@@Miki-xq3hr you are a classic internet troll and have no skills other than talking smack to someone you are not in the same room with!!
The guy cutting down the tree had some real stamina. You wouldn't want to mess with him he's like a machine!
Ya because running a chainsaw is so back breaking lol
There's always one!
Well the title is totally wrong - for starters.
Definitely a different stump being removed… Wayyyyy smaller!
Agreed! Leaves me wondering how effective it would have been on that massive stump.
@@jerrypender9019 Exactly
Extreme Dangerous Monster Stump ! Yes! Too many people have died due to roaming monster stumps! High time someone did something! 😋
I’m a trucker and i am glad i am not THAT trucker 🤣 That’s a tough job right there! They’re EARNING that money for sure!
Why the owners chose underpowered Mack Truck conventionals is beyond me!
Now, that International cabover had no issues with the turn, the load or the incline.
Жалко дерево и всех доя кого оно было домом
Для дерева свой жизненный срок потом падает и гниение но надо рассаживать молодь обязательно
Great job guys! That tree will make an awesome home!
Spoiler: First 2/3 was just felling a very large old old tree. The stump removal part was about 1 minute long and the last 1/3 was logging trucks with the very last 2 minutes - log processing.
Похоже последнее дерево свалили☹️
Why not use the stump remover to topple the tree at the end of the cutting process?
Bc if something goes wrong....and it could, they'd rather their half million dollar ex be safe. Simply said yes it would be much easier tho
Какое огромное дерево.Человек после него как мелкое существо с орудием.
Can’t imagine how many envelopes or Stick-ons that beautiful old tree will make.
The entire tree was a magnificent work of art all in itself. Very sad
removing old growth makes way for new growth. Eventually your time will come too. It's a given.
@@andybilakshow260 Yes that is for certain for us all. My comment was not meant to be negative. It was just a beautiful tree as I'm sure you'd agree. I do understand that it's good for the renewal of the the forest. That was huge undertaking and thank you for sharing your talent
Robert Underwood - only a liberal would feel sad for a dead tree. You’d be in tears if you saw the diesel belching bulldozer having its way with mother earth cutting a road to harvest them poor trees. Timbeeeeeeeeerrrrrrrrrrrr
@@oldstudbuck3583 actually I wouldn't. My dad was a logger in the 50s and 60s. I have always loved the smell of diesel and drove an 18 wheeler with a Cummings engine. Belched all over the highway. Good carcinogens and good times. Wish I could be out there tearing that dirt up. Nothing better than the smell of raw dirt.
@@robertunderwood3393 thank you for making this a truly pleasurable experience for me. Please tell me you live in Portland looking out your front window at a homeless drug addicts pooping on the front lawn while you suck down an overpriced Starbucks latte. Dum dum liberals make it too easy for me to force my will upon them. 😂😂😂😂🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕
Why was this centuries-old tree killed?
Tooth picks
It was dead. See the bark falling off? It’s dry under the bark denoting dead or dying tree.
@@LonC1966 Yes. and also yellow ,not white sawdust, a black trunk affected by a fungus, and clearly not a living crown.
So you don’t live in a mud hut..
Overpopulation
Nothing ever stays the same . No matter how you want it.
yep, well we gatta make our cheap crap furniture outa somethin
The amount of strength in that skinny chainsaw dude amazed me!!! He could probably win a cage fight LMAO!!!
It kills me to see these mature trees being chopped down.
go cry to your mommy
Sólo se puede sentir tristeza después de ver este video
