Palm tree catches FIRE with a Tree Climber still in it.Toulouse, France

Instagram @gjislain
Le pot d'échappement à enflammé les fibres du palmier due au contact avec l'arbre
The heat of the Muffler caused the fibers to caught fire
I went down the tree using my climbing rope witch was set up for descent.
I was tie in properly witch mean twice.
With my lanyard for positioning and my climbing system
Sorry the video is short
The main informative part was this one
The risks of our job is present real.
Iv learned from my mistake
Now I give a shower to the trees before working on them
I hope someone will Learn from this dramatic situation
The gopro doesn't on serve to feed my ego

Thank you 🙏 good to hear that my mistakes can serve

[@thexmanjdd]

because, you cut firewood at the top of a palm tree?

[@ElizabethDial]

@HyprXNation If you were to spray down toward your feet an extinguisher could put the fire out as it climbs your pant legs. Or at least give you a chance to keep the fire from rising quite so high up the trunk to you.

[@arentr9024]

I live in a tropical country so this my first time seeing something like this happen. Usually the nasty humidity in our place is enough to prevent this from happening. I thought the gas was leaking or something.

[@727SolutionsCoatings]

What happened? Where is the rest of the video of you coming down? I'm a climber as well and that is definitely a scary and dangerous situation especially when what's keeping you heald to the tree is a rope flip line (hopefully it was a stainless core). Was your gas line or gas cap leaking for it to go up in flames that quick? Or was it just your exhaust that initially started it up top? But where is the rest of the vid lol? Hope you got down safe with minimal burns.

[@zebrasnot6819]

I think it was the dry palm husk that made it go up that quickly, you can use it to make perfect tinder for your fires
