How To Climb A Coconut Tree with NO TOOLS!
And we are back with another mini episode and this time Shawn heads to the beach to teach us how to climb a coconut tree with no tools and no spikes, just his bare feet and his bare hands.
The coconut tree is literally the tree of life, and the Hawaiian word for coconut is niu. Loaded with electrolytes and potassium, the coconut is like a natural sports drink and the perfect cure for dehydration.

Thanks for tuning in, aloha! - Jak na to + styl
Yesterday, I climbed a 15ft tall coconut tree and harvested 21 coconuts.
This was a new record for tallest tree I’ve climbed and I must say it was an unreal experience….
I want to climb these 3 20ft tall coconut trees which are loaded but sometimes the height can get to me 😅
Haha epiiiic! And be sure to grab a few fronds in when you reach the crown. I made a mistake once and grabbed a bottom hanging frond and it broke off. Lucky I fell onto grass and didn’t get seriously injured lol. Keep up the good work!
Awesome demonstration! I’m afraid of heights, so you won’t catch me doing that any time soon, but I totally appreciate your skills!!
Thank you! And yeah I still get jitters sometimes when climbing the taller trees, but the more practice the better I feel. Thanks for tuning in!
Wow, great video! 🔥🔥🔥 Dude is amazing!
Haha thank youuu, happy new year!
Happy new year to you too, Shawn!...hey, you totally deserve the praise...you're incredible.!!@@shawnpila
Awesome video!
Thank youuuuu!
Sir, I love working with you. I live in Chicago and would love to move to Hawaii
Cheers buddy!
Yeeeeah buddy thanks for tuning in man 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙌🏽
How do you get down?
Inch your way down, pretty much doing what you did to get up, just in reverse. Or, you can slide down on your taint. That’s my preference but you rip up your shorts/pants much more easily
If I could bend a bit better I would work myself up to that. Great videos Shawn🤙
Haha yeah if I don’t climb for a long time I definitely feel it in the hips. And hopping in the ocean/river after that is mandatory lol.
What is yhe technique to go down buddy ? Are u fly off 😮?
Lol kinda like a fire pole but with one hand around the tree and the other in between your belly and the tree so you don’t get scratched. And once you get to a comfortable height you can go back to frog or monkey 🙈
I thank u sir :D
Lol thank youuuu!
Yall videos freaking rock! What hardiness zone are you in?
Haha thank you thank you! And I think we’re in like 11 to almost 13
I like your videos,keep going
Thank youuuu and yes yes we are still here! We will be releasing more videos soon :)
Which Island is this on?
This is Big Island :)
Free climbers always fall down in the end, so better do this while young. Or start use rope 😊
Yeah I definitely know my limits and have definitely fallen.. not fun LOL.
