[@avici0182]

[@Toggingdave]

@Maxi Max An animal like a goat has consciousness and a strong central nervous system which relays and processes pain and fear. Also, when you humanely kill a goat, it dies instantly, or close to. A tree, however, is not conscious and has no nervous system. It also doesn't "die" immediately when cut down. Each cell gradually shuts down as they run out of resources. So technically, when you eat an apple or a leaf of lettuce, it is still "alive" in that the cells in it are still whole and active. The idea of humane or inhumane really doesn't apply to trees. Nor does the idea of alive or dead as we think of them with animals.

from the slow motion you can see the nearby trees get hit with the blast and they get bent out of the way. the footage shows them bowing pretty hard, so either from them returning back to straight or just the sheer amount of bend in them at that point is prolly what caused the tops to snap off the nearby trees. great video as always.

My brother in law worked for a forestry company back in early 90s. He had to blow up a I'd say 150ft long 10ft wide Beaver dam that was causing flooding of a bit of land. The dynamite was this white clay like stuff wrapped in Orange wax paper stuff. We used fuse with blasting caps. First hit we used 4 sicks and nothing. We used 4 more and nothing. We used what we had left which was 8 sticks. We got behind a huge huge oak about 200 ft away and I give you my word I came off the ground. I could feel my body compress and bounce off the ground! You could see the shockwave leaving us in a circle as it knocked all the leaves on the ground flat and bushes. We came around the tree to look and the blast had pushed all the water back a long distance. At that moment it started raining mud, sticks and rock. It sounded like a terrible hail storm and kinda blocked out the daylight. It was then we heard the rushing of the water down the hill. Then at that moment a huge root came tumbling thought the trees and made a big thud as it hit the ground. I will never forget that and most don't believe the 16 stick dynomite beaver damn but I swear it's true. Good fun memories

We did this in the British Army back in the 80’s. I was in the Royal Engineers and we needed to get this stump out of a lake and we couldn’t pull it out due to the wet clay soil causing the vehicle to slip. So we wrapped a load of det cord around the trunk and placed PE-4 around the base of the stump, under the water... and when we fired it off it launched the stump and chopped it in two and then landed it on the side of the cab of our 4 ton truck. We didn’t take into account of the water redirecting the blast into the base of the stump.
