Tree felling vids

Remember the Blair Glen wackiness?

He probably takes the cake for, Hi there, Look at me!

Dandanthetreeman comes close.
Only show up here to post his videos.
Look at me, everybody.

I might have to disagree. I haven't watched many of Dan's vids but he seems very humble. Responds promptly to feedback on his vids. Idk why he never checks in elsewhere here, I wish he would.

Blair, well he's in a class by himself. He's probably a great guy in real life but he was a trainwreck here.

Nah Danthetreeman is good people. I have been watching his videos for a long time all the way back to AS. He strikes me as a guy who just wants to share. His videos are fairly basic in the regards that there are not twenty different camera angles filming the same event.

We are have ego Jed, I think in this job a degree of bravado and self regard is a pre requisite.

There’s not much between posting up an Instagram link of a few short vids and stills and a full blown documentary like a few do.

Don’t overthink it.

Like analyzing the smells of various turds to try to suppose mine could stink less.

I believe the phrase “ the bloke thinks his shit don’t stink” is appropriate

He might well be good people. But he hasn't joined in with the general give and take here. So I have to lean towards the view expressed that he's just another ego on display. I see no evidence to the contrary.

But I've been wrong before, I'll own that for sure.

Fair enough.

Interesting rope flip technique here. The first time I ever saw this one. looked pretty cool on camera and I could see it being a fun little time saver when rigging from the bucket.

This is kinda sad unless it was meant as parody of tree vids

 

[Tree09]

? Sad? Natty crotch a top with a half hitch?

 

[cory]

As basic as taking a dump in the chip truck and he's acting like he's the Man with his 20 yr experience taking a 3" top. Don't 98% of climbers who've been doing it for 6 months know this? I think he embarrassed himself imo.

 

[Tree09]

Oh lol. Yeah that is basic as walking. I need to listen to the videos rather than skimming on silent sometimes

Now I want to see the guy rig down some trunk wood natty crotch style with no stub to hold the line.

that's not hard to do

 

[flushcut]

No it's not.

 

[stig]

That was so awesome.
Totally out of the box.

Kinda reminds me of someone.

Have you hear of cutting a slot in the back of a spar to rig off?

 

[flushcut]

Yep. But I want it shown to me like it is some amazing ground breaking technique like the guy was showing in his natty crotch video.

 

[lxskllr]

Presentation is everything, isn't it? :^D

 

[flushcut]

It is!

 

[Jed]

Lol Cory... My wife was like, “What are you watching???”... and I said, “Oh... it’s just this funny guy (influenced by your suggestion) who’s doing a parody on tree vids.”

She: “No, it doesn’t sound like he was joking.”

 

[flushcut]

I don't think that guy was joking either that or he is going to win an Oscar.
