Beast Removal ~ Part Two

This is FTTG.
Freddy the Tree Guy.
No need to adjust your monitor.
That is a pink hard hat he is wearing.
We hired FTTG to take out the 2 main trunks.

The lighting for these videos is not great but you'll get the gist.

I kept wondering when he was going to move his work van.
Never did. Is this incredible knowledge of angles and gravity
or just pure luck?

Notice that quick flash of white at the end.
That used to be our mailbox.
Listen at the end.

I wish I could have captured all that happened here.
There are 3 men across the street
holding on to a rope that is wrapped around a tree across the street
3 times and tied to this falling chunk of tree.
When the cut piece fell into the tree and bounced
it pulled all 3 of these men into the wrapped tree,
injuring one of their shoulders,
then fell on the fence.
The first 10 seconds is the whole event.
The rest of the time is me walking to get a closer look
and forgetting that the camera was on.

Almost done now.
He cut that piece that he's leaning on
and came back for the 7-foot "stump" the next week.
(It got really gusty at this point. In the background
you can see a funnel cloud.)

There's still more.......
