This tree does not appear in this video. I wuz robbed. But video is still very gripping and educational. First time I went out for firewood was with 4 other guys. The falling tree splintered in half upwards, and missed me by 5 feet. I learning from you tube... always quick step far away from a falling tree you cut down

Very satisfying to see these hardy men at work, and the machinery developed to do fantastically difficult jobs!

Ah, the day you look at your husband and think, “I married an idiot.” I should have known- unrepentant registered Democrat. Live and learn. So happily married for just shy of 28 years to a guy competent enough to fly a few different jets and safely use a saw.

One summer in the mid-70s in the Orlando area, I was part of a field survey crew parceling out a large chunk of raw land with a pine tree plantation on it. The job went on for several weeks, with the pine trees harvested for pulpwood as we worked.

Machines cut the trees off just above the ground, with more machines stripping the limbs and bark and chewing them up to small bits that were spewed out. The stumps were even pulled up mechanically. Finally, more machines ground the stacks of naked pine tree trunks and stumps into small chunks of wood that were trucked off to be made into newsprint and cardboard boxes.

The entire process was astonishing for its speed and efficiency -- disrupted only by afternoon thunder storms and a massive nest of yellow jackets who objected until they were burned out.

I wonder if that one guy’s chainsaw is covered under a lifetime warranty for being crushed by a tree?
