Getting a Hung-up Tree Unstuck

We had a large tree give us a run for our money on this job. It took us a bit, but we got her down safe and sound.

[@christopherwadebaker9643]

That looks like a really nice job it really looks fun

[@tstep522]

There are a lot of firewood guys out there cringing at you grinding that white oak bigger than 6"! Hahahah! That's a lot of delicious smoke brisket there!

[@kathrynhelm4176]

Crapola! That was two massive trees as were the ones holding the one up. Yeah for your team...perseverance paid off! 👍❤️

[@johnhotard4853]

Nice job in a tricky area 👍👍👍😎😎

[@sharonlewis6258]

Great job. That was very stressful for me. LOL

[@elhuertodechale]

[@Annie6460]

On the edge of my chair stuff. Great show. ❤️🇦🇺🇺🇸

[@MyTractorGuy]

I always seem to get hangs, dead trees, tangles, and hard leaners so I feel your pain. Great job as usual.

[@pegpowell2486]

Wow, such precision, and you make it look so easy. Nice work.

[@UpstateBrushControl]

Thank you so much!

[@scottwinters3255]

I had a massive red oak do the exact same thing to me. Had to make 3-4 cuts then ran 100’ chain to my tractor and could finally pull it down! That could make a preacher cuss… lol

[@johnmattu7262]

John, you can't be tell'in everyone where Josh went on vacation, you guys are KZbin rock stars now. Poor Josh probably has a hundred thonged beauties chasseing him around FL now. That's a serious problem for a single guy to have! LOL, Nice job guys!

[@UpstateBrushControl]

Except he's married. . . to a crossfit coach.

[@nathanscott7910]

Amazing work with that tree stump.

[@troyledbetter6597]

That was a humdinger of a job! Everything looked great upon completion!

[@UpstateBrushControl]

Yes it was!

[@timsbrushhogging8714]

Just put chain around the base of the leaner and pull it to the side of the stump then pull it out and away. Works every time

[@jimp.4531]

great job, guys.

[@UpstateBrushControl]

Thanks!

[@brentking-gmailking2570]

Wow, you sure did turn the looks of that place around. Beautiful work. Have a great day.

Nerve racking work….had me biting my finger nails!!! Excellent work!

[@UpstateBrushControl]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@ElwoodFarmGoats]

Very nice job as always. The minute that saw got pinched and you turned towards the camera your body said it all. Even when the job fights you guys just push through and deliver which shows the great work ethic.

[@laynerouse3323]

Looks great!

[@dianncharlan5648]

Perfect job!

[@UpstateBrushControl]

Glad you like it!

[@stephendavies7805]

A wedge might save getting a saw stuck. Thanks for the videos.

[@vlookup_tim]

That’s perseverance. Thanks for sharing.

[@Southernbred52]

Yes it was!

[@fredhetler7148]

Glad to see you all back on the tube/

[@dennisryan7487]

Great to see " Ruby Red " !

[@captainkirk1745]

Can't keep a good crew down! I expect the 'pucker factor' was pretty high when you were working on that big 'widowmaker'. Real glad it worked out, but sorry about the camera.

[@dianncharlan5648]

Love the music!

[@UpstateBrushControl]

Thanks!

[@ChiefsFan62]

That was one stubborn tree! At least we got to see it on the way down! I'll bet your wives didn't like to watch this video. Scary stuff getting that one down.

[@ronevans852]

Boy that was a job getting that down. Good job.

[@bobjoncas2814]

...GOOD ONE. STAY SAFE...

[@nate2263]

395 was cuttin good

[@antonhuman8446]

Tricky unsafe job done safely. Great going guys!

[@grahamallen3941]

Great job boys. They are nasty ones just left hanging up in other trees! Well done all. Graham🇬🇧🇬🇧👍👍

[@JO7V7VY]

love your work man not going to lie working for you would be amazing i love doing this kind of work around my house keep makeing videos and doing what you do best

[@UpstateBrushControl]

Glad you enjoy it!

[@abarton1978]

That's the most stubborn tree I've ever seen in my life!

[@lisarider3736]

We had a leaner similar to what you had son we had an old bobcat with forks my dad built a platform with safety rails around it lifting me up in the platform with a chainsaw about 14 ft from the end in the ground and cut it with the chainsaw work great and finish similar to you did just so much faster though I was only 13 at the time great job though John keep up the good work make sure you give Willie a bronze Star LOL when he gets back

[@DanKoning777]

Good stuff; stay safe. *God bless.*

[@grantmorden2405]

good job boys

[@johnhenry787]

You and your guys do amazing work..I understand why you have so much work to do..Love the videos..

[@jsblake199]

That tree would make some nice furniture

[@logansimpson305]

Great video

[@DickieboyBradders]

I've never wanted to see a tree fall so much 😩 🌲🪓

[@fredschultz8267]

Awesome and stressful job, moving on to the next....

[@davebeck3135]

That was a tuff one, great job.

[@brockshields9336]

Damn, obstinate widow-maker. You probably thought you spent entirely too long pulling it down.

[@sylviaprudhomme5417]

That was a really tough tree. Well done

[@copperworks]

John weld hooks or a D ring to your bucket or thumb. Saves time

[@erniemays41]

About time.😉

[@patacake4997]

That is one very stubborn tree.

[@eric_seguin]

But I already liked, and I been subscribed and I was never anything but kind. lol

[@58unclesam]

That tree sure made for a bad day and not to mention, pretty scary😳

[@gerin1946]

John the Holiday man !!! It wasn't long that the young guys followed the rest for a long time !!! Let's see what are they up to ...? Best regards holiday people !!!

[@kevinwilliams8662]

Enjoyed the show

[@klausblankenhagel7648]

good job, super!!!!!

[@UpstateBrushControl]

Thank you! 😃

[@kathim231]

The tree from hell just wouldn't go down

[@emeyers5984]

Another amazing transformation! Great job Jon and crew!

[@wolfpacva]

That big tree was one big headache for you. You needed Letsdig18's volvo250.

[@chronically.advocating]

I wonder. Once free of the base wouldn't it have been easier to slide the trunk sideways with the chain until it either came down, or rolled over and came down?

[@farmhandluke5182]

Money well spent getting rid of that eyesore to sell the home and property! Looks like nice load of logs on ruby red 🪵 Good work getting that leaner on the ground safely, thanks for the great videos, and hope josh has a great vacation!👍👋

[@rockeerockey6941]

Florida on vacation??? It's been super hott here.

[@tornado0910_]

40:02 sad we don't get to see the tree fall all the way after all that effort trying to get it down lol

[@vancasdorph3951]

I hate ‘em when they are hung up like that. Makes for a dangerous day

[@maddexxx847]

What really sucks is when this causes big branches to get hung up in the other trees and no way to get up there and cut them down

[@SparksofOhio]

I was curious, did you ever consider fastening Willie to the bucket and lifting him about half way up and letting him cut the tree in half, it would probably have saved you half the time and would have probably been just as safe??? LOL

[@wendymorrison8874]

Laughing my butt off the tree just kept getting hung up and I’m like looking at it I’m like nope it’s not gonna fall it’s not gonna fall hate I didn’t get to see the end of it

[@geraldoamaro6769]

[@fleminj2pa]

I’m curious about how often you run into poisonous snakes and bee nests? I used to hunt rabbits in South Carolina during the winter months and when we had a warm day we always had our eyes peeled for snakes.

[@laurelherbert2879]

Widow maker

[@Bernie5172]

that was sure one hung up tree

[@UpstateBrushControl]

Yes, it was!

[@ohhpaul7364]

Didn't really think much about the size of the logs- last shot of logs on trailer- Good grief those are big logs.

[@cathiwim]

Look at how highit comes on his hip when hes cutting the middle- if thats not 36 -40 inches 8 feet up ill eat my hat!

[@samantharussell1457]

You aren't the only KZbin channel with GoPro problems...It appears to be epidemic...Much great footage lost due to malfunctioning GoPros!!!

[@tomherfel2916]

Great to watch. Not so great to actually deal with I'm sure. Man, your insurance rates must be out of sight!

[@nathanscott7910]

Lol. I know back when I was a building contractor here in North Carolina. My insurance was $1000/month. That was twenty-four years ago.

[@earlfears]

What model chainsaw are you using and what size chain bar are you running?

[@UpstateBrushControl]

Husqvarna 395xp with 28in bar

[@earlfears]

@@UpstateBrushControl Thank you very much.

[@Green_House]

Great video! Were you using one of those new 'NO GO PROs'? I hear they save a lot of time when it comes to editing videos! 😉

[@johnbradley9525]

I have a big bad ford at home that will do the job

[@johnbradley9525]

Hey guys you do good work but quite screwing around with stupid tree just cut the thing down or get your 4 wheel drive and pull it down
