so my dad used another tree climber today, highly recommended.

turns out he has a fondness of listen to his fooking ipod under our lovely walky talky ear defenders.

so his instructions of tie up, strip the top and THEN top it fell on bloody deaf ears.

so he went and topped it straight away.

I've had the equivalent of a light boiler drop on me from around 50- 60 foot.

now i'm starting to ache.....
not looking forward to getting out of bed tomorrow.
in other news my very placid and usually understanding father showed he can get very upset.

started to cut the tree with the guy still up the connifer......
 
Oh sound's like it could have been a lot worse it does make you wonder what people are thinking when they put earphones on.

If i hadn't legged it out of the way it would have been about 100-150ish kilos

Don't think i would be here somehow!
I couldn't believe it. You should no even bloody consider it at work!
 
Worked with thumbless climbers who smoked pot all day. I have Marlo gecko with a lovely snag in it as a result if half whits. Love climbing and working with old top handle. Hoax blue ridge are soo comfy but massive!
 
How can the idiot hear the pitch of the saw to hear how it's doing with music on?
 
Sounds like a lucky escape. Cant believe someone would working with earphones in listening to music, surely being aware of your surroundings is imperative when doing that sort of work.
 
Just sat through a date and then robocop at cinema.

my necks + back is stiffer than Michael jackson.

Lucky you weren't taller ;)
