As long as the coconut does not fall from the tree and hit you on the head!
I have many around my house. One coconut falling 60+ feet would make quite a dent in one’s skull.
A neighbor, about 100 feet down the path from me, had one tree cut down because the coconuts were hanging far above, but right over the path.
Wow! Very interesting!
