"we risk our lives so you don't have to"

Re: \"we risk our lives so you don\'t have to\"

Yes, we have one or two in our market. Guy has a chain for a lanyard. Other guy cusses god and the world the whole time he climbs a tree. No employees, just find someone to help each day.

Yes, Tom I am with you - I almost spewed coffee when he is taking off his harness over there like "I'm badass".
 
Re: \"we risk our lives so you don\'t have to\"

Yeah I really loved the dramatic music and that slow camera pan up the boom... to the man in a basket.
He looks like he climbs on spikes as little as he can possibly get away with.

That sissy basket still cracks me up.
 
Re: \"we risk our lives so you don\'t have to\"

Wow the ladder thing in the second video! This man obviously doesn't like climbing at all.
He needs to learn the step cut!

Re: \"we risk our lives so you don\'t have to\"

Second video it has his title has owner/arborist...I hope people don't get the impression that's what an arborist really is! Its people like that who make the rest of us seem like uneducated mokeys with chainsaws! Surely he isn't trying to imply he is an ISA certified arborist! A ladder taking a top now wonder he says no matter how many times you do it you still get nervous! Pretty crazy racing the top to the ground!
 
Re: \"we risk our lives so you don\'t have to\"

Dude is swimming in the shallow end with a lifejacket on. Only thing holding him up. I did check ISA and he is NOT a CA, fortunately.
 
Re: \"we risk our lives so you don\'t have to\"

Thank the Tree Gods he's not a CA...I would have taken it upon myself to contact ISA and report the mistake they had made by given him a certification! Then OSHA the better bussiness bureau..and anybody else I could think of! I wish there was a govrning body that would take the right of individuals like that away so he couldn't do anything invovling tree work or a chainsaw! There's no telling how many lives he risks on a daily bases not including his! Maybe you should have to submit to a background check and have a permit to own a chainsaw! Like a gun permit! Just kidding but sometimes I wonder with guys like that!
 
Re: \"we risk our lives so you don\'t have to\"

But if you do let them have sharp tools, they should have a shark cage and a crane so they can do the job right!

Re: \"we risk our lives so you don\'t have to\"

I left a comment on his YouTube channel asking if he has a cousin named Daniel.

But seriously, this guy makes Daniel look like a conscientious professional.
 
Re: \"we risk our lives so you don\'t have to\"

When you run the saw left handed and it kicks back, where does the bar go????

Ouch.

I was going to say the same thing. The rest of them looked like they were damaging the crane.

The whole 'chubby guy one handing chain saw out of a man-basket' set to the dramatic music is just too much. I nearly spewed coffee on my computer.

Re: \"we risk our lives so you don\'t have to\"

This completely de-stressed me tonight when I really needed it. I had giggle fits.

Except the topping off a ladder thing. That was just fukking stupid and dangerous. With the deadly race down the ladder?

Yeah... go right ahead and risk your life so I don't have to.
 
Re: \"we risk our lives so you don\'t have to\"

No it's not OK. Those smucks keep my prices profitless. Step up or step out. He probably prices with "whatever the market will bear on a given day" policy or scam what you can. He's got nicer equipment than me or well he actually has equipment when I spent my startup money on education and 6 years later I'm having trouble keeping the pickup/branch trailer show on the road.

For me that's the real issue.
