Seen it before many times. But when you click on it, you can't stop watching.

That climber went up the side of that tree like a damn spider. Chopping out a top with one manila flip line 5" from the cut?? Seriously Insane.

All around seriously dangerous work.

Scariest part was those powered crosscut saws!

The felling actually looked pretty controlled and accurate, i've seen far more dangerous looking videos of felling....

And btw, the freakin excercise those climbers, riggers, fellers, and buckers got everyday looks mind boggling.

I heard or read somewhere a while back that the average logger of that day burned about 8-9000 calories a day.
