Hell yeA

[@tonyallen9632]

This is my go to video channel when I want to decompress from all the "unbiased" news noise around. You guys make a tough job look fun and easy, which I know it isn't. The safety you all put into each job based on equipment, physics and the environment is incredible. No shortcuts. This is the American work ethic. Blaming others for what they feel a short coming isn't. Being able to provide these excellent videos while doing such a hazardous job is inspiring. PS. Keep the wife happy with a good life insurance policy. Ask her what it should be. Happy Wife, Happy Life.

Kevin breaks everything 😂

[@jiffypop247]

It's a phase every climber/tree guy goes through. Too confident, accident, question your own abilities, gain skill, gain confidence, accident . . . Repeat with longer streaks between incidents

[@br-dj2ti]

You are exactly right I've been cutting 22 years and now I don't make accidents too often ever in the beginning I made them all the time but they're always going to happen especially in tree work God bless ​@@jiffypop247

[@AkiSan0]

@@jiffypop247 nah. if you look at all the things kevin did on camera, its more like "slightly risky" but he always rolls the smaller chance of it going wrong. xD (he is as cursed as i am). you can have a 95% chance the log goes left, and for kevin and me it goes right.

[@jiffypop247]

@@AkiSan0 haha, I have that issue when dropping the spar. I work with a guy that makes the sloppiest notches and never has a problem. If I get sloppy I'll end up with an accidental swinging Dutchman and miss the log pad. The same guy also doesn't get nearly as dirty as I do.

“ for every tree we cut down we plant one” That could be a great marketing concept

[@LoriLynch-bt8tj]

That reminds me of when I was a kid. We would walk out into the woods where we lived in the country and cut our own Christmas tree. Then in the spring we would go back to the place we cut it and plant TWO new baby trees to replace it. We'd mark them with a little red flag so we could find and check on them later. I went back a few years ago...there are a bunch of 50 year old BIG beautiful fir trees where those tiny babies used to be sitting there next to some tiny raggedy red flags. :D

After my heavy garden work here in the Uk these are always very relaxing. Very good skills particularly the rope work to ensure nothing falls on the house roof. It is a pity where I live is a smoke free zone as I would love a real fire with logs.

On the bucket truck you should make a removable expanded metal guard over the radiator. Then at job sites have another piece that hinges up to cover the windshield.

[@williewombat1851]

You're not a ground guy Jake, you're management making important decisions which can't be made up a tree. Now, that important channel "Guilty of Randy", where do we find it? 🤣🤣

[@smarthome2660]

Hey yall, I hired a tree guy many years ago at Higgins Lake Michigan. He used a boom truck and a very thick rope & topped the massive tree. The roof of the house was covered in leaves as the tree was just one foot away from the house on the eaves side. He tied the tree top to the bucket and fell it towards the house, and when the top came off, it brushed all of the leaves off of the roof. He was definitely a pro. The roof was coming off later anyways, but there wasn't even a scratch on it.

[@brucemartini2288]

that sounds like a VERRY reasonable price! For 5 trees! that maple could be 3 in 1

[@GuiltyofTreeson]

And two days a work, one four man crew day and one 5 man day :)

[@colecampitelli1170]

Randy with such a beautiful run on that top 😍

[@ScottZimmerman-xf6xh]

Love watching you and your crew work! Learning a lot for my trees around the house. Question; when you make your notch on a tree you're falling, it's usually the flat side on the top then the angled side below that, but sometimes opposite. Does it make a difference?

[@TheHighlyannoyed]

Just discovered the channel today, but something that'd help newbies "understand" would be each person having a "color", which you SEEM to already have with the helmets, and then each perspective, just put a thin color border, maybe under 10px, so they know whose eyes we're seeing through at the moment. Like, I know two guys were in the tree, but can't recall who... there were a few people on the ground, doing "things"..... I also appreciate you going out of the way to identify the equipment that's being used. Sure, it's half marketing, but you never know what rabbit hole you might wind up in!

Just stopped drinking celsius a couple weeks ago. Im only drinking coffee now. Id drink a couple cups of coffee in the morning, then around 1130ish/ after the first or second tree, chug a celsius. It was great for the first month but then it started to make my chest sore… im off energy drinks all together but celcius is the only one that did that…which sucks cause its the best one haha

[@doreennichols3881]

I live in Australia and any big tree that is cut down, is sawn up for timber. Isn't Maple any good for milling? Just curious. It also amazes me why so many people build houses near trees that are known to grow big. Love your videos. You are so good at what you do. I hold my breath sometimes.

[@TremaineLea]

I've watched quite a few of your videos, and I'm honestly looking at getting into working as an arborist after 25 years in IT 😂 Any chance you have a video planned around 'So, you want to be a certified arborist!' I have some rudimentary basic knowledge of how to use a chainsaw, but the more I watch the more I realize I need to learn 😂 Frankly I think my age and lack of experience is going to count against me, but I'm seriously ready to do something different!
