Once upon a time I was camp counseling, and there was average thud in the middle of the night. In the morning we discovered that a tree fell... completely uprooted and just barely missed the cabin... would have fell on the roof directly above one of the campers

I like the way a tree fell on top of the first guy’s house directly above where he was sitting, and he still brought his snack bowl safely with him in his escape. #priorities 😂

I live in a trailer in the middle of the woods trees all around me. I love it for the shade. But i do always worry about a tree falling. It is a trailer so going to rip right thur. That would be a bad death it would happen instantly. But i always think you would see it coming for bout 10 secs maybe you can jump out of the way . But then again you might jump under it panicking🤣

Trees are falling everywhere due to climate change. A tree caused $70, 000 in damage to my home. In areas where water tables are saturated, the roots of trees are saturated and are rotting. A tree also fell on my brother's bran new car...totaling it 10 minutes after he got it home.

City codes are insane when it comes to trees.
If a tree is 75 feet tall by maximum know highth. Code should say must be that far from house. And any tree taller then that distance must be cut back or removed.

You better make your house reinforced with steel rails or concrete beams, making it resilient to falling trees, if you like to live surrounded by them.
