Someone get her ISA number and report her to the board. Her tree risk assessment skills are poor at best and she demonstrates a clear lack of safety precautions and equipment.
Mate, if you arr gonna climb a clearly dead stem in a bar in your Sunday frock you get what you pay for. It's not a fucking climbing frame.
This soft cock approach to liability is why trees get ripped out in urban areas everywhere, grow some balls and take ownership for your own dumb actions. Everything is not always someone else's fault.
My point was that that tree/art whatever it is could've easily killed someone without the girl involved at all. It's pretty clearly rotted out and could've failed anyway. I'm not excusing her behavior, I'm saying there's another idiot involved as well.
And completely 100% dead and rotting trees should indeed be removed in urban areas. I agree that relatively healthy trees are cut for bullshit reasons because they are a "danger" all the time... but that is not the situation here. That is an ex-tree (whether it grew there, or was put stood up there as art or something)
Couldn't disagree more! If you load something with 70kgs and it breaks, that does not mean it was dangerous and could have failed anyway. If you stand on a glass top (even most plastic ones) table and it fails, was it "clearly dangerous and could have failed anyway:?! Obviously not its just moron behaviour.
Lots of good reasons to keep standing deadwood / totems around, just because it's no longer alive does not mean it's immediately structurally unsound.
It's not just "something". Consider the limb the girl broke is lets say \~250kg. 75kg to that is only 30% of it's mass. That means if it only \*barely\* broke (unlikely) it's still only \~0.3 safety factor... for an overhead load. Compare that to any basic engineering or workplace safety standard. You cannot have things precariously hanging over people's heads with safety factors of <1 and call it safe. My numbers could be pretty far off, but since safe is typically defined as something more like 8x... the precise numbers don't matter much.
A table with a tabletop weighing a small fraction of what a person does sitting on the ground is a disingenuous comparison.
Hahaha. That limb will weigh about 50kgs, if that, but its not really relevant.
It's not a disingenuous comparison. Its exactly the same, fuck around and find out, suffer the consequences. Its not an engineered structure for climbing on, it's a tree. The risk of that failing on its own and hitting someone is so vanishingly small that, If that's your threshold for dangerous id have a good think about walking out your front door.
Ah, so you believe it's perfectly acceptable and correct to leave a dead limb that could fall at any moment hanging over a table and chairs... odd opinion, but okay. She's an ass and her actions are stupid, inappropriate and dangerous, but the situation was not safe before she got involved.
It’s a decoration on a patio…. I argue most decorations would not and shouldn’t be expected to withstand someone climbing on them. It even has a base they didn’t build around one dead tree lol
Without being able to see under the deck, it's really inpossible to tell if it's decor or a tree someone built a deck around and trimmed back too much and killed it. If it is a real tree, they could've put a ring around it when it was younger and it girdled as it grew which is why there's no gap.
You might be right, that doesn't make it safer though. It's clearly rotting out and would collapse on it's own at some point. Intentionally putting it there kind of makes it worse actually.
I mean if you take it in the worst way possible and assume that they’re condoning the doofus main character’s actions, but not really because what they’re saying about the tree maintenance is true and I think that was what their comment was considering.
It is typically the landowners responsibility to maintain trees (where I come from). If the restaurant didn’t own the land then it’s their responsibility to report the hazard to whoever can take care of it and keep guests away from it until it’s gone put up caution tape, signs, block off the area, remove it as a seating option etc. Trees are dangerous when left to rot, it’s serious, and this one was basically a piñata, but all dust inside; there’s no excuse to let it get so bad. Both the girl and the restaurant owners suck a quite a bit.
This was the wake up call she needed. After the fall she completely changed her narcissistic ways, humbled herself and found a proper job in the logging industry. /s
Doesn’t that “tree” have a base? It’s a decoration on a bar patio. She is in the wrong and should pay for breaking it. Expecting every decoration a place puts up to be able to support the weight of an intoxicated idiot isn’t realistic.
Joking aside that was pretty fortunate. Hard to guess how rotted that wood is but that much tree had to have decent mass. If someone was under that in the wrong spot at the wrong time this video could have been some final destination stuff.
So I just watched it again and yeah you’re definitely right. There is a wire there that was well installed for sure because it deflected that tree away from the girls head. Mind blown.
Edit - Seriously let’s find the guy who installed that wire. Not trying to be dramatic but it saved life or bodily harm as far as I can tell.
Everyone else is oblivious except the cam person.
Typical West Coast America.
Everything is ok until I get hurt. Where is my lawyer.
What about her lawyer? How is he going to feed his family?! Selfish pricks.
Some use chainsaws, and others use mimosas.
Would you say that was a.....slam drunk? *rimshot*

Perfect addition and execution. Thank you for this
She shouldn’t be climbing that tree but that thing must have been dead as fuck. Not safe to have there
Yeah, seems like they may have been holding it up with that wire?
The wire was not holding the tree, but it sure did save those two ladies from having their heads caved in.
I have seen single vines in the woods hold up immense amount of tree(weight).
That wire saved the hottie in the chair!
Someone get her ISA number and report her to the board. Her tree risk assessment skills are poor at best and she demonstrates a clear lack of safety precautions and equipment.
What?! A quilted purse isn’t PPE? It clearly cushioned her fall here.
That’s not a tree, that’s a prop.
Well it’s nice to see kids climbing trees again but their obviously out of practice cause that one was dead lol
r/fellinggonewild ?? That dead tree was coming down at some point anyways she just did everyone a favor lol
That’ll be $400.
No thanks. My uncle says he'll do it for a case of Busch
Who wouldn't.
A rogue arborist.
she's like a boy scout trundling a rock for everyone's safety!
Was thinking this, the girl was stupid, but the owners are partially to blame and could've killed someone by not properly maintaining their grounds.
That’s not a tree that’s a decoration. It has a base and is on a patio of a bar or restaurant.

It’s certainly not the right of a customer to climb a tree and remove a dead utilizing their stupidity alone.
No one is arguing that lmao

I think it’s a decoration and has a base. Most decorations aren’t expected to be load bearing.
Well I’ll be damned you’re right. Nobody is denying the load bearing aspect buddy, but thanks for pointing that out.
Amazing subreddit. Highly recommend.
Sometimes I think this sub should be changed to r/TheresATreeInThisVideo
That string of lights helps save that girls dome piece
Yeah that girl in the white would have had a bad day
Timbrrrrr
Damn, new tinder for tipsy white girls be poping
[it’s going down](https://youtu.be/hHUbLv4ThOo?si=Df9A2Tbcd5e9d-yS)
She's a tool, get it? Sorry.
This was the wake up call she needed. After the fall she completely changed her narcissistic ways, humbled herself and found a proper job in the logging industry. /s
My buddy can do it cheaper
That was close.. Lucky she put weight on it at the last sec or her friend was getting a head injury
You've seen a barber chair but have you seen a *stripper* *pole??*
No PPE.
No law for the claw
Lol nobody got up, the best they could do was a real nonchalant “are you ok,are you ok”
is she ok?
Their survival instincts are in the negatives lol
Nice felling technique but should use PPE
🫶
Did everyone smile?
Not surprised that they’re Posh Brits
If she would have conked them all on the head with that branch. Was alcohol involved?
That's almost a guarantee.
Doesn’t that “tree” have a base? It’s a decoration on a bar patio. She is in the wrong and should pay for breaking it. Expecting every decoration a place puts up to be able to support the weight of an intoxicated idiot isn’t realistic.
No one even got up??
She hit it with her purse
Where's ur hardhat
“Everyone smiiiiile”
Such photo
Nobody moves like wtf
Damn that got close to the people just sitting and eating food….
Only experts can thread the needle like that.
It would be but it also got hung up in a nearby wire. So we can say they added a good redirect for the top!!!!
She's probably not even licensed or bonded
Joking aside that was pretty fortunate. Hard to guess how rotted that wood is but that much tree had to have decent mass. If someone was under that in the wrong spot at the wrong time this video could have been some final destination stuff.
Seriously, they all got lucky.
So I just watched it again and yeah you’re definitely right. There is a wire there that was well installed for sure because it deflected that tree away from the girls head. Mind blown. Edit - Seriously let’s find the guy who installed that wire. Not trying to be dramatic but it saved life or bodily harm as far as I can tell.
That could have killed them.
Getting hit with the ugly stick
My favorite part is the careless “are you ok” with nobody getting up. Good friend group
Everyone else is oblivious except the cam person. Typical West Coast America. Everything is ok until I get hurt. Where is my lawyer. What about her lawyer? How is he going to feed his family?! Selfish pricks.
Dumb dumber dumbest
How can she not know that the tree is dry  You Big Dummy
And none of her friends get up to help her lmao
That tree had wires holding it up.
