Karma maybe? I've never understood the mentality to buy a piece of property, build a house and then remove all the trees. to each their own πŸ™‚βœŒοΈ

I never understand why on all the videos I've seen like this there is no rope, chain, wire, anything! pulling the tree away from the house. Am I missing something here?

The face cut was too deep and I’m pretty sure the back cut was too shallow, no guide rope. This was a disaster from the start.

πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘this is why you make sure you hire a licensed and bonded tree cutting company bc now that's gonna cost way more than what they was gonna want for the job. πŸΏοΈπŸ¦ŒπŸ¦¨πŸ¦‰πŸ¦β€β¬›πŸ¦πŸ‡πŸͺ²πŸ all them was watching with popcorn and said "Karma"

The tree got INSTANT justice lol! Looks like they would have something in place to INSURE the tree doesn't fall on your house but... I guess that didn't cross their minds?

You hire a tree faller or and Arborist. You’re and Ignorant Ass if you attempt this and don’t have a Clue. Leave it to a Pro who is Insured.

that's what happens when you're a dumbass and do s*** you have no place doing if you knew anything about cutting trees down the biggest mistake you made besides not topping the tree a little bit or a lot was your wedge your wedge was too small for that big of a tree and if you looked up at the tree you would have seen that that side of the tree was heavily covered in branches meaning more weight on that side of the tree meaning it's going to fall that way stop doing s*** you have no idea what you're f****** doing you just caused more problems

Why would you allow someone to cut a tree that close to your house who is obviously not experienced. He’s using an axe. He needed a chainsaw and some tie offs this could have easily been prevented. That’s what cheap ass motherfckrs get when they don’t wanna pay a professional. That’s why they’re called professional. This type stuff doesn’t happen to them

karma for chopping down a beautiful 100+ year old tree that didn't need to be cut down.....

amateur move. You could clearly see that the tree was bowed and the weight was not evenly distributed with the footage.

you buy property and then realize it is a risky tree but you also need to know what you are doing . hire a professional and your house is fine . do it yourself and ouch

Yeah that’s about a 200ft pine tree landing on top of a ranch style home ..I would’ve made the notch slightly to the right a bit and had a group of men with rope pulling away from the house when that tree fell.

cut all the way through his hinge on the one side and left hinge on the home side super simple fuck up that shouldn't have happened. that hinge left on the home side caused it to swing.

I've done tree work all my life and I can't get enough of these videos. people are too cheap to hire professionals and end up costing themselves way more money or end up severely hurt

could have at least watched a couple YouTube videos first and learned how to properly make the cut.. his second cut was way below the hinge.. I'm no expert by any means . but I'm pretty sure the second cut is supposed to be above the hinge so it can't twist or fold backwards like it did. stupid fuck. all the knowledge of the world is at our finger tips and people still dumb as hell.

I'd have rented or borrowed a large truck, a backhoe, and put cables around the tree to help pull it in the direction they needed.
