Move Over, Axemen!!!

I suspect the program makers encouraged it to create drama.

Reminds me of the time in Axmen when someone called for a saw down in a valley to be sent down on the wire thingy, the camera made a big show of attaching it and I saw it was an old wanked 076 or similar, sure as shit it dropped and smashed into a hundred pieces, cue howls of fake rage from the cutter below.

That’s when I stopped watching.
 
NO...but I think THESE guys are pretty much morons. Not impressed here. And don't look for the crazy lead-in picture...must have photoshopped that to get suckers to look.

How about right at the start of the clip where he almost drags the saw across his legs...the first video

That long middle of the video with 2 climbers -- boy they like to leave stubs everywhere! And their drop zone must be teensy behind the wall, based on how small the pieces being rigged down are!

Absolutely shopped :).
Dang, busted again. What if I doubled Jerry at 150' -- one with a cast, and one without?
 
I thought that mostly those guys did well. The groundie locked off two log chunks, banging the climber a bit in the double-climber video.


I wonder if we are seeing different videos from the same link. Did it start with the double-springboard, into the seemingly German double-climber (beech?) take down behind the wall. Seemed like they had a plan. I would have done it differently, but so would everyone have done it differently.


The sequioa had a lot of people involved for a vertical spar once you start dragging ropes up the tree and have to get them out from under the log without the machine damaging them and etc, etc.
Need a Lot of pull with a heavy, back-leaning log with hinge to bend, with a terrible line-angle. Looked like about 70 degrees on the one.
