Chainsaw, chaps, helmet, etc. Limbed off the branches, then cut about 10-15’ worth of chunks from the ground. Since it was still attached, I had to cut the chunks 95% from below, then hit them from the top to cut it off. If you don’t cut far enough from underneath, you pinch your chainsaw blade, then have to lift the tree section to relieve the pressure and remove the saw at the same time.Quoting Idioteque Stalker (view post)
Once the tree section was no longer on the ground, (the last chunk I took out caused the section to lift up to about seven feet off the ground at its lowest point. At that point, I climbed a ladder and cut below the break, making the tree more seamless. Since I took such a deep angle, I didn’t cut a wedge out. Still should’ve cut a wedge, since when it fell it felt a touch too close for comfort. Then just go back and cut it into manageable pieces.
Note: The V in the tree was too tight for me to get in the tree safely, so I cut it from the ladder. I prefer to cut the big sections out while in the tree, since it’s more stable, and that damn log can sometimes swing back and take out your ladder. Better to have someone reset your ladder than call 911.

It felt like I lost five pounds of water weight and my hip ain’t happy. It’s Hell getting old. To quote a classic: “It’s not the years, it’s the mileage.”
So I’m double fucked.

Huge thanks to Skitch for the amazing avatar!
Any time!
Thanks for the explanation. This kind of stuff is impressive to me--even more so addressing potential hazards that may or may not be obvious. I'm sure many people have been seriously injured by not recognizing "potential energy." BTW I'm proud of myself when I change my own oil.Quoting Scar (view post)
Rank 'em... 1 is the easiest, 4 is the hardest. What would be the hardest to do? Keep in mind, you have your team to help you:
1)Score a NHL goal
2)Hit a MLB HR
3)Score a NFL TD
4)Make a NBA 2-pointer
???
I think it goes:
1. NFL (offensive line helps you run it in
2. NBA (pick and roll... eventually you'll get a shot in)
3. NHL (off a deflection or one timer)
4. MLB (you ain't hitting shit off a pro player, much less a HR)
Only adjustment I'd make is I think NBA 2 pt would be easier. NFL you would have to score on your first try, because even one of those tackles might kill a normal person lol
Is this during a live game? There's no way you'd get a shot off.
1)Hit a MLB HR
2)Score a NHL goal
3)Make a NBA 2-pointer
4)Score a NFL TD

Scar I watched my dad work a chainsaw this week when I helped my folks clean up after the storm Monday. Still without power. Good luck with the cleanup.

And it's happened once again
I'll turn to a friend
Someone that understands
And sees through the master plan
But everybody's gone
And I've been here for too long
To face this on my own
Well, I guess this is growing up
You think MLB HR is the easiest?Quoting Dukefrukem (view post)
This is true, lol.Quoting Skitch (view post)
Yes, by far. Eventually you'll get a fastball. Just swing for the fences every time. The only obstacle would be your own hand eye cordination.Quoting Ezee E (view post)
Basketball, are we talking going coast to coast? There's no way you could past any NBA player 1v1.
NHL, same question. Coat to coast?
NFL, 80 yards? Catch and run? Rushing? How many plays do you get? on the 1 yard line? 2 point conversion? What are we talking about here?
You're in a game. You have your teammates. The solution is there. That's all there is to it.Quoting Dukefrukem (view post)
So basically you're cherry pickin' while the other 9 players are at the end of the court, and when someone gets the rebound they huck the ball to you and you do a layup.Quoting Ezee E (view post)
So yeh, i guess that's the easiest.
Whatever it takes.Quoting Dukefrukem (view post)
Can't get a HR easily.
That scenario happens. I think it's hard for a normie to even stand next the plate of a 90mph pitch, let alone club it out of the field.Quoting Dukefrukem (view post)
Why is it need to be a HR? Can't it just be a hit?
The stipulation was HR, DUKE!Quoting Dukefrukem (view post)
I think it's gotta be a HR because all the other things result in points scored, so the baseball analog should too.

I have been chuckling about the idea of the touchdown being harder from bacon's scenario. You're out for six months after a crippling tackle from a linebacker.
Hitting the HR is the most difficult by far. Scoring a touchdown the easiest.
