Tree work: poor judgement can have big consequences

- #Tree Removal of a huge messmate gumtree in the Dandenong Ranges. the tree was about 40 metres high and situated right above a house
it took a while to get the throwline into the tree, as we kept getting tangles, so we went for a lower shot and I had to flip line the rest of the way to the top.
I setup quite poorly for the first few rigs with my climbing line wanting to pull me the same direction as the rigging line.
the second branch I Rigged I didn't have my pole belt attached as the rigging line would have been rubbing over it. it was not good work positioning and I swung with the branch I cut and the rigging line pulled tight pushing me into the tree.
A quite scary moment that happened so quickly after a lapse in judgement and a complacent set up of the rig.
I climbed back to the top repositioned my climbing line and rigging line and the rest of the tree came down beautifully.

Love how you took the extra time to talk through what you were doing. We can all learn things here and there especially for us new up and comers
Awesome! You make it look easy.
I've seen another fellow use fine (small) wooden dowels for the largest chunks of wood. He puts them into the kerf and they act like roller pins which can save some strain on pushing the large pieces off. He paints them neon orange so they are easy to collect at the bottom and the cost is pretty cheap anyway if they break or go missing.
Thanks mate, wow I might try that!
Very nicely done. It always used to piss me off the clients did not bother to move their stuff out the way, so we had to deal with all of that as well as meeting the scheduled time, so I ended up putting it in my terms and conditions that the time spent moving things out the way would be billed as an extra. I have to say that I would have been tempted to use a crane with this one, but maybe access was an issue. Good content and a valuable message in the caption.
Good work Harry and Chile
I know it's more work for you, but very good camera work. It's so nice to watch from something other than a helmet cam. Great job.
You’re climbing the biggest trees out there consistently !!! Your a beast
Awesome job as always.I would love to see some footage of the ground crew running lines, lowering etc. Added in!
Yeah im planning on making one 👍
Thanks Harry & mates! Good fun! Excellent work!
Stumbled upon your page recently and I’ve got to say your content is bang on! Making my way through all your old videos. Man keep up the great work 👌🏻🤙🏻
One word. Aminal!!😂, you make it look easy to get all the top off that by dinner time. Being a bit of a small guy around 65-70kg... it is a bloody workout pulling up blocks and rigging lines/saws. Must be ball ache on those tall mountain ashes. Fair play👏
Love this style of video dude - Patrick
Thanks man!
Enjoyed the video. Excellent rigging and limbing. One boo boo....not bad. Very nice camera placement....makes for a very entertaining video. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
4 throw lines stuck in a tree?! I think it’s time to go back to bed
🤣🤣
Great video man!!!! Would like to see more of this stuff where your talking to the ground guys explaining your perspective in the tree. Great to see from someone who lives in an area where a 20m tree is large haha!
Another great video. When you have time could you show us your SRT set up? Unless you’ve already done that in a previous video.
Can do 👍
Epic Sir..............love it
ALWAYS WINDY!! EXCELLENT JOB!!!
The throw line struggles are real!! Haha
Very smooth work. We adapt. Stay safe
thank you for sharing amazing video. Can you show us what type of knot tie for high point(srt) please
The throw ball blues. I know all about them. Mental health is key in that situation. Lol God bless.
Great footage man!
Very nice work Buddy always God bless just try to be tired in twice when you’re cutting. I know you know what you’re doing but it takes one second for something to go wrong.
Thanks mate, yeah I'm with ya 👍
Top notch work for real.
Гарна робота !
Another great video.

Go steady harry,
Love the throw line comments, definitely cannruin the day before it stsrts lol
Fearless Harry…
What a weapon
Not gonna lie. That tree looks intimidating🫣
certainly a huge tree....and windy.....
What kind of tree is that? Not familiar with some of those trees in Australia.
Eucalyptus obliqua, or Messmate gumtree
How long have you been climbing for? And do you climb just about every tree using SRT? Great content btw
Thanks mate, 10 years and yeah i rarely use drt now
Hey mate ,
What bar are you running on the 201?
14 inch with pico chain
Epic mate! Did I see you making a back cut on a branch with your slip line on it?
It was the my climbing line, just holding it out of the way while I cut 👍
Big stuff brooo
Mto bom, Very good ❤❤
13:33 🤐
Its the tail end of my climbing line, was holding it out of the way as I cut
god joob
What kind of trees are these, they're massive lol
Eucalyptus
@@treeclimberharry582 damn those things are crazy big
@@treeclimberharry582 Isn't that the genus?
Maybe Eucalyptus globulus? Or Blue gum as I recall you call them? (Forgive me, I'm from Denmark, Europe ;))
Nerf of steel ❤
WHY at 13:20 would you put your lanyard around the limb you are cutting off ? Why Why Why ?
My lanyard was on the branch next to me, that was the tail of my climbing line
Thank you I thought you did to get clicks ! After review multiple times I do see and understand. Great job !!!
"Wouldn't want to live under that."
Indeed. Wonder why they put buildings on its roots and thereby killed the tree?
Hate trees with ivy
