Those are such cool looking trees.

What kind of gloves are those? I have the wrists of an 8 year old girl despite being 6'3" 220. Definitely look like they'd help at least in summer!
Mr Stihlmadd, love this video and all the rest, your editing skills are wasted here, Hollywood will surely come knocking soon. These Eucalyptus have me baffled, achieving such colossal heights yet appear so brittle, is this just my perception? The hinge wood seems almost none existent, originally from the UK, now on the east coast of the US so oaks are my thing, hinge wood is generally big and talking them into walking is easy but they don't get that tall, what's the Eucalyptus's secret? Secondly, I've watched many videos from Aus of guys taking down, deader than dead Eucalyptus, powder almost, the Tahune Airwalk tree jumps to mind (if any of you haven't seen the video, stop what your doing, even if your delivering your first born, Google and watch) if a colleague of mine attempted to climb an oak in such condition I would stop them before the suicide attempt got any further, so what makes the Eucalyptus different? Anyway maybe the only way to answer my questions is to make the trip but any insight would be greatly appreciated that way I can avoid having to sell a kidney to pay for the trip, maybe Quantus could show your videos during the 24 hour flight and the time would pass by no bother. Thanks, Brendan.

funnily enough you should say that fall_risk cause the in house climber did take all the easy ones.

Cheers John, got some good camera angles and such on that job and a few rigging tricks I picked up from Pfannerman's cramped working areas does help out

only down side was getting the cuts all sunk in and aligned in that cramped triangle but once there is 8 tons of hydrolic force under her butt that tree is going downI love the bottle jack trick. I gotta start using that
side note the powersender makes a excellent temporary GoPro mount
