- We join the loggers of British Colombia, Canada as they battle 6-metre-wide trees, 200km an hour winds and a slippy terrain that is also home to grizzly bears. They put their lives on the line but they would not want to do anything else performing one of the toughest jobs on the planet.
Here, life is all about the forest. At the heart of the economy is the wood that teams of lumberjacks cut from the immense forest. Their job is a dangerous one: if they don’t take it seriously, it could take their lives.
After being cut down the enormous logs must be transported on a tugboat across an unforgiving sea. We follow the journey of the trees from the forest to factory. A rare glimpse at some stunning Great White North landscapes and one of the toughest jobs on the planet.
This documentary was first released in 2014.

This was a great documentary, thank you for taking time to film, edit and post this video.
Worked at Tahsis back in early 70’s
I work in forestry road construction, awesome documentary.
Great video. Nice to see how they do it !
Beachcomber should mill wood and sell it
Well done 👍
Thank you guys for your efforts!
Your timber is more valuable than our timber according to differences in trees maturity ..
Bravo
Yup there's big money in the wood industry
Fucking A rights boys takes a lot of hard work and labour to get trees to the beach I got so much respect for anyone in the forestry industry
Really great doc. Love the channel
No wonder Eric is slim & that's a hell of a way to make a living, but fair play to Him & His Wife, very good Video.
Bundles sneaking out sux
I wonder if they ever ran in to the big people...

Andy is a boss skipper.

you mean sasquatch? that´s not a wandering spirit but leaves very real footprints ... . it´s a hairy hominid, lots of sightings on vancouver island since long .... .
Should be $4000. A tree minimum.. other wise ur working for peanut 🥜😅😅😅😅
Sad.
you should be jailed for cutting huge trees plant pines cut pines
Ok I'm a gardener and European(sorry) and as gardener my desire is make the plant healthy and happy I really can't understand why you're going to be happy cutting a secular plant
@@SA-gf3th that would indicate a Canadian eh?
*sniff,sniff* I smell a Canadian Imposter & welp the money and demand of said industry but most of all, enjoying nature and doing old traditions but with modern tools
These guys are happy to be able to make a living for their families. It was a job available when they were looking for one that probably pays decent.
People need toilet paper house furniture and we need pay cheques
He is not cutting it someone else did
Gee = Canadians aren’t that smart, are they?
Thanks for destroying our seas as well as a forests😢😢
Ur welcome
He is cleaning up what the industry has distorted
I hate seeing them cut down too, but I don't know about you but I like toilet paper (a lot), and my wooden house. And for what it's worth, the fishing industry are the ones destroying our seas. The planet can live without seafood, but we still need lumber.
I like my Brick house even more cos you can huff and puff and it will never be blown down 😁
I am a Canadian and must apologize for our insensitivity regarding nature.
there's always one i guess
The rest of us apologize for you being from here
STUPIDITY IS MORE LIKE ITTTTT
Wdym we replant yes it takes time tho but our industry is sustainable
Hi loggers i no you need jobs to live,but cutting so much trees down you are causing so much damage to the environment by taking out the trees that create air for the planet and store carbon,and if you have family your putting your family at risk so why don't companies do select logging and leave more trees in the forest.
To all the Electric car driving ( you want to talk about a destructive industry) naysayers out there try wiping your 💩 with plastic 😮
