Palm tree move

[@qazia6175]

Only a true palm lover can go to such extremes to save a tree/palm considering how much skill and effort is required to actually do that. Hats off to you people and God bless you for such a lovely effort ❤️

[@EduardoDiaz-zo3rv]

That’s a different way to think about it. I wouldn’t think it was worth doing all that back breaking work for a palm tree.

[@ScottyRockz253]

Clever

[@williamhartman9]

Now this video should have way more views,that’s some kick ass ingenuity,I’m a landscaper and that’s using what you have ,bravo

[@davisonthomas4697]

Yes, I have been thinking about raising a tree like this, glad to see it done.

[@Anthonyalt]

I'm relocating a medium sized palm tree and I gave up half way. I watched your video and realized i have nothing to be complaining about haha. Great work!

[@AlexSometimes]

Thank you.... wasn't sure what i would encounter when moving. Really appreciate it. Glad there is no annoying music or stupid commentary. i already know what a tree is. Bravo

[@BrandonDrew87]

*NO POWER TOOLS OR HEAVY EQUIPMENT WERE HARMED IN THE MAKING OF THIS VIDEO* Great job guys.

[@AlexSometimes]

lol, that's a voice of experience

[@Mrtimou812]

My hat is off. You did amazing work. You are inspirational.

[@hopedox4485]

Pretty genius on your multiple techniques, Great job!!!

[@francisgeorgemurphy]

Wow, i am so impressed with what these guys achieved and what an advert for the car!

[@antonioaguilar5587]

Now that's what I call determination.

[@djcrazy2685]

i like this video, there's no talking n im getting to see how big palm tree roots are!!

[@EasyModeFishing]

It’s amazing how a 30’ palm tree can have roots that are only 2-3’ long yet they are often times the only things left standing after a hurricane. With such a small root ball you’d think that someone would be able to push them over.

[@RareCandeh]

They’re very resilient! They just sway and bend in heavy wind

[@hightide9513]

Palm roots are very long, they just grow outward. Very few root grow downward. Once you cut a ring around it it’s pretty much free.

[@DazeOfBudtending]

Palm roots can be a mile long

[@BlakWiseCracker]

@@hightide9513 You’re correct but not the Palm Trees in America. Most roots grow to be 2’-3’ long. Thanks

[@BlakWiseCracker]

@@DazeOfBudtending Sorry you’re wrong 😑 most Palm roots are 2’-3’ Thanks 👍🏻

[@V8AmericanMuscleCar]

Awesome job!!! Last weekend I took a few smaller palm trees out of the ground and the other weekend I planted them in my backyard. I'm still in pain. LOL

[@sunnykobe3210]

You’re a clever fellow. How did the palm react to being moved?

[@mr.a.]

Incredible video. I’m moving three palm trees there 6 ft or so tall and this video was very helpful. The other 14 Palm trees we have are 30ft tall. I’m trying to get ahead before there huge. I planted the first set 15 years ago from just tiny seeds.

[@AnjulaGodakumbura]

Nice work... Moving some palms today in Colombo, Sri Lanka 🇱🇰 ..

[@leomcdonnell8939]

Absolute 💯 % effort Hats off to you guys. Ingenuity prevails

[@mooncatandberyl5372]

I am literally LOL over you using your car, i like it, very inventive and resourceful, you have made my day. thanks. Also You must be very fit, that is a hell of a lot of digging! no need for you to go to the gym! i bought a very small cordyline? cabbage palm when i didn't know much about plants, my 'garden' is only a small patio about 6 feet by 8 feet, and I can only have a few small container plants, when i bought it i didn't know it would grow into a very tall tree, i need to put it into a very large container as I think it is becoming pot bound in the container that it is presently in, i'm trying to search into how to do that and i stumbled across your video. it has just flowered so mama might be having some babies soon.

Salute & respect for the great job u did.

Amazing determination,great job

[@fly4fun24]

Thank you!

[@mianaomipost9885]

So palm roots don’t damage concrete and pools?

[@fly4fun24]

No they are very fine as you can see

[@mianaomipost9885]

@@fly4fun24 Thank you! I was wanted to plant mine near my pool at the edge of the concrete. This is awesome to see! Thanks

[@fly4fun24]

@MiaNaomi Post the only thing to consider is the mess that a palm tree produces close to the pool. Also, the root size depends on the palm tree variaty ,

[@mianaomipost9885]

@@fly4fun24 thanks for the tip! I will definitely consider that because I didn’t think about it. I have foxtails too and I think they’re fruit bearing but don’t really know how much of a mess they make just yet. Will continue my research.

[@victry1nolan319]

Did u dig out 2 palm trees in the same day?? My God! U the MAN!!!

[@fly4fun24]

Yes it was a crazy work 9h non stop

[@heathhoffpauir]

That's awesome to watch. He'd be good at building camps in the swamp.

[@ericawest807]

What does it cost for a service like this?

[@pilotforever6645]

i wouldnt do it for any money if it werent for my own home

[@reptileita]

i dont know if my dirt is tougher or i am just more weak.

[@Anakinuk007]

Awesome work, I’ve a similar project in mind with a tree half that size don’t feel so daunted now. Was the tree strapped somehow for a few months to stop it falling over?

[@ANiMALFRiENDS_GOLDMAN]

How does he work so fast?

[@ANiMALFRiENDS_GOLDMAN]

Well I followed your advices and my house collapsed into the hole but it was not your fault I did however move the tree first so all is well. GRATITUDE

[@ANiMALFRiENDS_GOLDMAN]

Pesky sinkholes

[@mechantics]

Awesome work man! Post a follow-up to show how it's faring. Don't remember if you cut off much but did you lose a lot of the lower fronds?

[@ryukyudiver1]

Did this tree survive?

[@fly4fun24]

it did and itis heathy

[@danibecker3911]

👏👏👏👏👏. Hell of a job and he got it done. Bravo

[@fly4fun24]

thanks

[@quarter_moon_and_a_guitar]

You work amazingly fast

[@Italiano92884]

Wow crazy to watch, would u have any recommendations for moving a very thin palm that is joined with 2 more, thin but maybe about 15' high...

[@fly4fun24]

Italiano92884 three head palm will not roll as easy as mine, but i would use the same concept. I would tie all branches very tight together with straps and extract like i did

[@Cakin]

Is there a guide for hoisting trees this way?

[@fly4fun24]

I dont know, but I had to raise it no matter what. That was a way to pull the tree upwards and forward at the same time

[@BlissfulGardening15]

I'm tired watching this. Bravo for the job well done!

[@capeman10]

I work the same way. People lack vision. I am trying to figure a way to move a tall coconut palm that's on a slope away from the sea wall without heavy equipment and big fees.

[@CaliCowboy805]

That was awesome. And I thought I was having a problem with a smaller one. This is way harder and he did. It.

[@yesbutno3864]

Maybe the fast motion makes it look easier

[@392_RHINO]

How long dod this actually take to remove?

[@fly4fun24]

9Am to 6pm around 9h

[@392_RHINO]

@@fly4fun24 wow! Thanks I need to move my palm tree to another location and its deep like yours so I got my work cut out for me

[@joestal210]

What tools did u use to get it out?

[@fly4fun24]

Joe Stal just the shovel and my car.

[@jerry-mj8th]

Great job it really takes time to save a palm some people would have just killed it and bought another

[@FaridJaafar]

Genius! I have a coconut tree which I want to pull down. But I have a 1 ton mini excavator to make use of. I hope it wll be easier compared to what you have done.

[@kareno8634]

Your Ancestors worked on those Pyramids, didn't they? ; ) Nice!

[@fly4fun24]

Karen everything I do, I think about those guys that raised those monuments with nothing...and I cheated, I used my car. Base on that, We can do anything if we want to.

[@MrNjama]

All that work. Is it worth it?

[@fly4fun24]

MrNjama yes , I used that area for driveway through the gate

[@RKK485]

Great work.

Just found two palms randomly growing at an old fishing spot I had about 12 years ago. Just went back and was walking the trail, boom.... palms.... From where, that's the question ⁉️ 🤔
