[California Tree Equipment]

This happened last week. Why they put an untrained guy behind a 2400 is beyond reason.

It's been a ridiculous couple of weeks for the number of accidents.

It doesn't matter what kind or size equipment or task....training is important for all equipment and tasks

It does not matter how much training you have, when the safety cables are absent, there is nothing to grab as your a$$ is getting chipped into to soup.....

I was thinking about this incident as I was chipping by myself on friday. A true eye opener.

Good lord... what a way to go.

Good lord... what a way to go.

Actually, it probably wouldn't be "that" bad....

Better than cancer rotting away for months or years in pain.

2 seconds and you're hanging with Jesus!

I can think of better ways to go. So sad.
