I'm not one to comment on videos. My goodness this is a game changer I have 22 posts to remove. Thank you so much!

I've been digging these posts for years and used a heck of a lot of precious energy doing it! You sir deserve a medal!

[Jeff-gdev]

I don't have a fence to remove, but man I enjoyed this video. Especially loved seeing the pride that your son showed in himself at the end. The "I can do this" attitude will serve him well his entire life.

$100 and two hours later my posts have been removed, thank You saved me two days of digging

[tangling]

Awesome. I am about to save myself roughly $8k thanks to this video. Great video!

A tip here for safety reasons. When just removing concrete it is very important that the chain is secured prior to lifting it with the jack. While under tension and if the chain slips, the kickback will have tremendous force and anyone unfortunate enough to be at the receiving end will have a lot of hurt.

Awesome tips. This video really delivers! I removed 14 footings from my yard with shovels, 8' digging bar, sledge hammer, and you name it, lots of work. So when i saw this title i thought this is classic clickbait but turn out it is genius!

Farm jackal was my best friend for years. When car/truck bumpers were made of steel it was a handy rescue tool.

after pulling four posts up from my clothes line, with a shovel, and having a high lift in the shed... I feel pretty dumb lol ! Great vid

My post were double the thickness and the concrete bases were far more substantail ( necessity4us due to high cross-winds ). Another issue I had is that as I had originally forgotten to bevel the concreate bases against the posts to allow rain/water to easily run off and not pool round the bases, which resulted in most of the posts being rotten part or all way througn at the base. This made using jacks very difficult/ineffective.

So my strategy here was to grind/mill the wooden post remains out and leave the concrete bases in place and simply added new posts of the same size. It all turned out to be a nightmare of a job, that took forever, cost a wodge in cutting and milling bits, and left me with battered hands, arms and shoulders for weeks. The moral of the story is : Never forget to bevel/angle the concrete cement downwards away from the post base, so that water can run off and not sit and rot the posts in the first place. Wish I had watched this video before doing the job, as that would have saved me quite a bit of pain and time I would imagine.

After trying to dig out a concrete base enough to get purchase on it to pull it out of the hole I realize there's got to be a better way. The next morning I found your video went Harbor Freight picked up a jack and finish the job quickly. I can't thank you enough for sharing your tips and tricks it really helped me.

I used this method yesterday to remove a post buried in nearly 3 feet of very heavy concrete. It worked just as you suggested. I'm grateful to you for the tips.

[WurledPeas]

One thing to remember is never allow yourself to be positioned above the jack bar when operating the jack.
I’ve seen these things kick and that bar comes up in a big hurry.
I see HenryT mentioned the tension on the chain but you also need to remain clear of the upward sweep of the bar itself in all operation.

Been fencing for 20 years and your video helped me never to proud to admit there are new tricks to learn should list how many feet of chain works best

[Joyce-z]

This video helped me and my son remove 4 deeply cemented posts from our side yard in about an hour. Appreciate the idea and links

[southern_merican]

I made a 9ft tripod and secured a winch and pulley to it and just hit a button and watched my family look surprised 😂 worked like a charm

[midship]

I hired a tow truck to come out and remove 25 posts. Cost me $200 dollars which was a fair price to me. Took the guy about an hour. The beautiful thing was I sat and watched while drinking a beer.

Exactly why I kept a old bumper Jack that had been deemed totaled by insurance company. Sometimes I had the chain slip but hammering a nail into the wood helped the chain grip.

[supermills]

Pulling the old posts was my one major hesitation about replacing my fence by myself. Thanks for this idea.
