I'm no psycho tree-hugger, just a sportsman and balanced conservationist, but as I grow older myself and gain more wisdom and appreciation for TIME, whenever I see a majestic old growth tree like that felled my heart winces and breaks... What withstood eons of challenges is gone forever in mere hours for a very short term use or profit. Yes trees are "renewable" but at 100-500-1,000+yrs old they should be left untouched. Have areas designated as 'tree farms' where faster growing trees can be harvested, replanted and rotated... Leave the OLD GROWTH for our future children to be in awe of!

They're left to grow wild and free Oh, I'd rather be a crooked tree Perfect trees were driven down the mountain to the mill They turned them into toothpicks and twenty dollar bills It seemed the more the people took, the more they needed still in the end The crooked trees were left there after all the work was done Now they go for weeks and never witness anyone No one left to tell them if they’re growing right or wrong but the whispering wind Oh, can't you see A crooked tree won't fit into the mill machine? They're left to grow wild and free I'd rather be a crooked tree People say I'm different and my way of life seems strange I took the road less traveled, twists and turns along the way But like the crooked tree, I'm growing stronger day by day as the clouds roll by A river never wonders why it flows around the bend A mountain doesn't question how it rose up from the land So who am I to wish I wasn't just the way I am? Who am I? Oh, can't you see A crooked tree won't fit into the mill machine?

Deep Thoughts by Jack Handy. Because I'm good enough, im smart enough, and dog gone it people like me. As a young teenage child, my friends and I played a harmless Halloween prank on my elderly widowed neighbor. We put a jack o lantern on her porch, stuck a knife through its head with a note that read, " You're Next " This has been a deep thought, by Jack Handy.

Would like to hear the thought process during in the minds of each team member during the cut. Such a balancing act.. crazy..

It's very sad to see a century-old tree cut down like this, and for what? I would like to know if this were in the Amazon, how many would be praising the specialized professional work of these men...

That bloke is one very skilled operator. To make an accurate scarf (wedge) with such a long bar on such a large trunk takes an immense amount of experience and skill, but to do it when the angle (second) cut is made upwards rather than downwards is even more difficult. Given the plunge cut he initially made, I'm assuming the tree had a significant lean (or amount of weight) in the direction of the intended fall - and he was endeavouring to reduce the tension on the opposite side of the trunk (to his scarf and the intended direction of fall) and in order to reduce any possibility of any barber chair effect when he later made his final (back) cut).

Did a few years of tree work ( not on this scale) they did it right! You sleep real good after a day of tree work!!

Tough and dangerous work even on a day when the weather is nice.

Using 50" chain saws with the delicacy and precision of a surgeon, awesome, frightening and so skill full.

The old things in life will pave way to the newer things. This tree did survive many years, but it accomplished so much.

@@astroboy483 It's a fricken filter. All plants filter out greenhouse gases (like CO2) and turns it into air we breathe. that, and it helps make more trees further down the road. SO yes, it accomplished far more than you have ever done in your life.

the tree that was felled was huge and on a slope, the punt stump was on the flat.

I wish they had not taken that tree down unless there was no hope for the tree.😢Trees that old need to be respected.

Nice to see the tree win for once

How sad to see such perfectly healthy, large, and old tree be put down.

there is an ~114 yo white pine (Pinus monticola) behind my neighbor's garage (36" diameter trunk) that, like that tree in the video, has a dead crown. It's first growth post "the big burn". much rathert it be felled and used for finish lumber than just rot.

That's a hell of a tree I've cut some trees down in my life but I would not jump on something that big he is a pro and when that tree falls he is tired great video

What an amazing Tree, I kinda feel badly it’s being cut down. You are very skillful at your jobs I just hope this Tree wasn’t cut down to show off a stump removal machine.

I was saddened to see this majestic tree felled but I understand the need for the wood. The workers doing the initial cut were truly highly skilled and precise.

easy way to remove tree stump just as long there's no gas pipes or water pipes underneath or around the tree

I've never seen a tree with bark like that! Real men with tools, mmm. Nice.

Such a giant tree is a part of history and should be preserved

The excavator isn't dangerous. Cutting the tree down is.

Clearly "The Star of the Show"! He weilds his chainsaw, the way Thor weilds his hammer!

Tell ya what you better know what you're doing for real !! From what I heard lumber jacks have a high fatality rate and it's one of the most dangerous jobs period !! My hats off for dudes getting it done

Truly magnificant tree. If you look at the moment it begins to fall, the top is bare of needles. Only the cones, this tree is dead standing. My guess is a lightning strike.

What a drop. 9:34 look at the hinges - lovely work.

Definitely a different stump being removed… Wayyyyy smaller!

Watching them try to and finally succeed in felling that huge tree was never racing, the energy in wood stressed with tons of force is nothing to be trifled with. I don't know why the tree was cut down, but they did what they set out to do.

Pause at 9:21 and you will see that Pine beetles have all but killed it. Once the foliage starts to die off, you only have a couple of months before the entire tree starts to die and ROT while still standing. Once it starts to decay, the wood is all but useless for boards and paper.

After years of cutting trees for firewood, I was clearing land at a beautiful spot for big houses. We left plenty of trees for them but something started bothering me. My company wanted to clear a spot of old trees, a place you could see for miles around. When that last tree was cut I looked around at what it looked like, that was my last big tree, I quit and never cut another big one.
