Maybe we overrate health and safety...

That Video irritates me, they should know better, the pakistani one, while funny, is a tad more understanding based upon available info they may have. The last one, safety risks seem...deliberate
 
Man I am glad nobody of any safety comp was around holy shnikies what a list of fines. I should save that one and post it up to the crew if you do you will not do again for me.
 
The real tragedy is the homeowners, most likely, will brag to there friends about such a "skilled" crew! Also, how everything went so smooth. Its an example that many will follow...arrgh!
 
Strange things in that video -

1- carabiner used as rigging block
2- no helmets
3- no eyeprotection
4- guy cutting notch for felling did not have his thumb wrapped around the handle, hand could've slipped off into running chain
5- one handed use of a climbing saw
6- one handed use of a ground saw
7- eminem style uniforms
8- Climber looked stoned
9- Ground crew most definately stoned
10- Sh*t music

These guys just need a good talking to.
 
I got the homeowners to make this vid of me doing a removal a few months back.

My ground crew were at Burger King having lunch so I got the Husband to go on the pull rope while his wife with their dog filmed. They were a great couple to work with.
The wife had the greatest confidence in my abilities as an arborist - makes a change.

I think the dog was sh*t scared!

I was inspired to attempt this after seeing MB's avatar

Any constuctive criticism would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
 
And the crappy rigging setup allowing the pieces fly around with no control. Not to mention the guy on the roof holding the rope and trying not to be hit by the swinging pieces.

Totally agree.

Especially working above a roof....so close to it!

They could be good arborists, but they act like they dont give a sh*t!
