EXTREME precision falling

[Daniel]

first 18 seconds show a slow motion tree falling... target was a 4' round of wood, distance over 50' from the hinge to the center of the target. Round was split perfectly in half. Second fall is a backleaning maple spar, with a tight LZ between a driveway and a house. third tree was a little back leaning corkscrew willow. These cuts were made in the course of two days.

Nice, but pretty routine

I'm no pro faller, but I've participated in felling contests at two small time logging shows. Killed a beer can and won both of them.....

I pushed over a tree with a tractor once. True story. Ill have the video edited and up in no time. Its riveting. And by in no time, I mean never.

Also I've skidded logs up hills with arborplex 1/2". When they'd get stuck on stumps we would just pull harder! I mean that stuff is like $.30/ft and if it broke the logs were just going to roll into a lake. Also a true story. No, really!
