For those of you who don't know, felling trees is incredibly dangerous. They store immense energy in a not terribly structurally safe form. Don't do it if you don't know what you are doing.


My dad always insists on cutting them himself and watching it always gave me a heart attack. That vid is basically what I play through in my head the whole time. So far nothing happened but man.
