Weekend Warriors! Removing Two Large Backyard Fir Trees!

Join me and a skilled team of arborists as we tackle an ambitious project in someone's backyard. In this video, we're tasked with removing two towering fir trees that loom over a small yard, leaving us little room for error.

Watch as we employ a zip line technique, carefully maneuvering the branches out of the trees and directly to the wood chipper. The precision required is crucial to avoid any damage to the nearby house, making every cut and swing of the ropes a nail-biting moment.

In this video, we focus on removing the branches and tops of the two massive trees, setting the stage for an exciting Part 2. Stay tuned for the next episode where we'll dive into the process of chunking down the towering tree trunks, showcasing our expertise and the power of our equipment.

What a great ground crew and attitude! Would be a pleasure to work with these guys

[jeffbeeckman]

Love the safety talk and prayer before ascent. Not a big believer myself but with what we do we definitely gotta shoot a thanks to the man upstairs once in a while. Would totally work for those guys again

[jeffreyharrington]

We have safety meetings & prayer before starting the job everyday so I love seeing this and I'm glad you were able to help this crew.

[noobysofter]

Really nice to see the business owner being so understanding and such nice communication between you and the ground guys. Awesome work!!

[moeezS]

That jumping between tree to tree was intense, especially with how thin they are! Respect to tree surgeons!

[barbaramaasch]

What a terrifying job!!! So glad there are skilled brave guys like you to do this.

[strawberryshortcake]

What a fabulous person that older man is!!!!

[br-djti]

I don't know who that guy is Jake the older gentleman but man what an awesome man would love to work with him and you definitely but wow what a blessing we pray everyday to

[karenwatters]

Power to you for doing this specialized job. Definitely not for the faint-hearted, I felt dizzy just watching at this kind of height. Thank goodness for the safety precautions you take. Good job

I am 42 years old and have done tree removal since I was a kid "family business" and everyday my dad prayed before we started our day, sometimes the customers would join us and sometimes they would stand back not sure what to think but never had a complaint about it, I would say 99% liked it. Keep up the good work both in the tree industry and in the ministry of Jesus!

[aleahscottage]

I helped my dad take down a tree once. Nowhere near as tall, and we used ziplining to take down the branches while he was tied into the tree. Its reallt fascinating to watch knowing how much effort and planning and practice goes into taking down trees and maintaining safety. Wonderful to watch.

I did not realize how much goes into getting a tree removed. Much more appreciation for this profession. You guys are crazy lol 😂

[mickdees]

14:44 gently but the most hectic drop lol 😂

[safewizardgaming]

Love what you do man, as a ground guy you cannot get a much better crew than the ones you worked with In this video, have to send a prayer to the man upstairs before every single job to make sure my dad is safe

[dandydude]

Heck yeah Jacob! I am 13 and bought my 4th saw today. I will be carving soon.

[kcf]

Thanks, Jacob for the super fast Sappy Supplies order, my first! The handwritten thank you note was a nice touch, keep up the strong work!

[eribean]

Wow! That’s two tall trees. Must be a great view. I presume you pause each time at the top ti look around…Thank you for posting. Love watching your work. Scary and exhilarating at the same time.

[austinedmonds]

Really wish I had someone like you too have taught me the ropes of the tree industry because the guy I had really didn't have the patience or knowledge to teach someone who has never did tree removal. Great videos

[gsed]

Love the prayer before the work starts! All glory to God!

Fun fact: squirrels can survive a fall, they can't be killed by terminal velocity. Was sitting on my deck watching videos last year, umbrella up, and a squirrel fell out of the oak above me. Landed 3 feet away from my flew out of his mouth(scared the crap out of me!!!!). He didn't move for about 30 seconds and then got up and walked away. Even the babies can fall out of the nest and the mom will come and pick them up. Love the video! Have a great weekend!!
