Half hitch and a bowline on a bight. Noy incredibly complicated. However, I can't get a good look at his setup on that guide. If that blue line was to bind up and get caught then he'd be having a pretty bad day dealing with the snapback from it.
as a sailor, you can also do the simpliest and efficient way to tie a log like killick hitch or a clove hitch. that way when the log is cut, the rope is not going to slack midair while falling down.
Really wanna know what was extra on that bowline and the speed he did that was absolute expert PHD status, but what the hell was that extra thing going in with that bowline!
omg please come to my house-i have a tree that should have never been planted so close (previous owner). I didn’t think it could ever be removed until seeing this. WOW

But you can't because that will distract and take energy away from what you're doing and cause you to fuck up.
This reminds me of a time I was camping all alone in the mountains in upstate New York, and had left a pot with leftover fish and lentils about 80' from my tent.....Black bear circled my tent in the middle of the night, brushing up against it....I could hear him/her breathing.....I thought I was a gonner... When I got up at sunrise, and found that the bear had rattled the pot, but NOT EATEN my food, I was very offended!!! 🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️

@@gwhalin yeah i get that, but at least in my world when we fall we have a small amount of control in the swing after the drop cuz we can use our arms to stop the momentum, the log has no ability to do this and so from a rock climbers pov its very impressive
Easy and quick knots. As a combat engineer and having been on a search and rescue team, there wasn't anything complicated being done here. Practicle, easy, efficient. It just takes a little practice.

As someone who has climbed and Ben the ground guy I give you major props because I've never been that high without a bucket.

I've seen him perform this trick at that altitude and ride that crazy ride that comes afterwards!
You don’t need a certified arborist you just need a well trained climber. I know several arborists who are more shoes on the ground than boots in the air.

I learned knot tying in Army basic training. The bowline is my go-to knot for securing a rope or tying onto equipment. The beauty of it is that it’s easy to untie after putting a tremendous load on the rope.
I've been 20 feet up a telephone pole on gaffs (required skill working for the phone company) and this is always how high I FEALT like it was. You got my respect!
Blows my mind watching the guys do this. Had one taken down on my property, and the tree swung back and forth after he dropped the top, and he had to hold on tight.

You got you a pretty good roper there. They let it run nice without shaking the spar too much. Good job everybody!!!
What are you calling the "spar" ? Is that the line that has the thimble on it that the blue line is passed through?

I guess they top em and strip em at a prescribed height to harvest the spar as hardwoods?
