Anyone else notice how they added a ratchet sound when that one guy was tightening the nuts on that saw ?
That's a good boss right there, still able to learn from the masters!
Worked with chuck out in Oregon climbing hills, cool dude!
Anyone else notice the ratchet noise as he used the chainsaw wrench
The bad sound effects on these shows drives me crazy.
Yes
Came here two years late to say this lol
$3,000 per tree. Good money,but just think if a guy dug up those ferns and sold them for $9 each. Shoot,that's mo money,no money. Lol.Those dudes are some seriously good loggers. Much respect.
I miss Ax Men.
Open your heart and let this drama IN!!
Nice timber in this film. Couple of experienced fallers in there.
1:15 lol he's the wedge that needs to get pounded lol wtf xD
Big second growth for sure, the old growth there probably had trees 10+ feet in diameter
$3,500 a piece?? I might need to tap into this business
😆 I wish it was that easy. Cutting down trees like that is like trying to take down an apartment building! It took the men in that episode 50 plus years of back breaking, dangerous work to be able to take on trees like that. $3,500 sounds like a lot until you’re standing in front of them. I couldn’t do it.
Downing the trees is the easy part...it's the logistics involved in moving equipment, getting the site set up and actually being able to haul the logs out of there...anyone can take a tree down but only a few can find a way to fit them on a 18 wheeler and get them to flat ground
I wish they’d bring this show back but leave out the awesome sound effects.
I disagree. I think they all are a bunch of ego maniacs who curse each other out way to much for absolutisly no reason. We are beyond that type of disrespect in today's society. I do like Shelby , however , down there in New Orleans. He is cool and he does the real work in comparison to what these imbosils do!
@@dperez3437 that's just how loggers are. Foul mouthed and rowdy.
My dad is an expert logger just like Dwayne was. He uses a 390XP just like he did.
Thom Beers sound like he has a cold, compared to how he sounded in old episodes.
He is calling tree monster... yes end is near😂😂😂
That looks like Second Growth to me. Old growth is much bigger. It's also protected .
TIMMBBERRR!!!
Well, guys... these fellings are just amazing, I don't have words... more of them..!
I'd like to see the whole thing and a description of the cuts. They are carrying wedges but you never see them used?
RIP Gabe Rygaard
love the Dutchmans.
nice saws
661? The 881 is the biggest Stihl makes.
What exactly are the people in the comment section upset about? that they just cut down the trees? Do you also cry when boilling carrots? Trees this big aren't benificial to the enviorment, trees only consume Co2 and produce oxygen when they are growing. Trees this big actually use more oxygen than they produce. Also what do you think is worse? Thousands of heavy excavators and dump trucks pouring out Diesel fumes in order to make cement and bricks, or 3 guys with chainsaws?
They're prices are soo far off.. We typically get 2-3K for a whole load
welll... if they were proper OG and actually 3-4' at the stump and 250' tall, then yeah, you would get about 3k per, or more if they are really tall, trees like that each one would be a load.
I'm Treeophobic! 🌲🌳
Dangereous😎
Learn how cut a double n you want have that expect n danger to have to timber another 🌲 keep the good work Loggers are us
Legal and controlled logging setting- Chilling- KZhead comments--YOU'RE KILLING IT ALL. EVERYTHING WILL BE A DESERT -Real deforestation/Amazon on fire/Slag pits -HYSTERICAL LAUGHTER
It’s not old growth. “Seven tree goal?”
Lorric Logging agreed that’s a walk in the park 😂I was cutting a 7 foot old growth red fir patch the other day and cut more and the but logs weighed more on the trucks then those all together
@@cascratcherskingcorysaltsm5526 I've seen bigger Douglas Firs on Vancouver Island...
Old growth is anything over 150 years but yeah I have seen 6 foot second growth red toads, these are decent though
@@lukeruggiero1894 k JK No, old growth is any forested area that has not been previously logged. It’s also synonymous with “virgin forest”
@@BjarneButler yes I know that. Also I enjoy your channel your a good faller
I liked History Video's🥰
Why so many butthurt people in the comments? Your whole life is built on wood. Whether it's the wood you live in or your father's that you came out of.
Husqvarna dan stihl 😮,, sangat kuat mesin nya ya. Saya di sini memakai chainsaw stihl tebang pohon
Good job guys, GOD BLESS and stay SAFE!!!
God bless you too
My grandpa show me pictures in the 40s she would cut down trees all the time for a company he would take old growth trees down black that you could not even take Ten Men to reach around the tree those pictures are in my mind and they're not replaceable
Building the A.R.K 30 days & 30 nights
None of the had glasses on
Best Show in America
They gotta get buckin billy ray smith on the show.
Why was the 390xp brand new my 288xp definitely doesn’t have the sale stickers on the bottom side of the saw still
22 comments. Most upset the evil men cut down trees! All while sitting in houses made of trees.
My house is made of concrete and metal, all the wood is recicled...
@@Beingahumanbeing unless you made the bricks yourself they put alot more pollution in the atmosphere then making a board does. A tree that will be replaced by another tree is the definition of sustainable! I dont think it's my logic that is pathetic.
@@pater7387 it's too bad you can't RECYCLE your education it looks like somebody else could get more use out of it. If you mean repurposed then good on ya. But if it was recycled you just doubled the pollution it took to make the first board.
You know.... thats a very simplistic interpretation on your part.... to not take this any further, by buying old restored furniture, you extend the use and its life, instead of buying new ones(make new ones from scratch takes a lot of time, money and energy in many ways). Just like when buying a car, it actually cost less money and energy (counting all the process that it takes to make a car from 0 in a factory) to buy an old car and let it die and then buy an electric one. Source of this info is the university where i’m studying, i study architechture with focus on sustainability, modesty aside. To be realistic, wood can be very nice when building, but for the sake of the future and the argument, better keep using concrete No need to be rude or angry btw, just saying Plus: think of all the time it takes to grow trees as big as the ones in the video men. Not worth to destroy
@@Beingahumanbeing in Montana where I live logging companies are required to replant the area they log I cant say for sure about Washington but it is a standard practice. With the high amount of rain fall it takes about a hundred years to grow trees that size. I hope the last question isn't serious but I'll act like it is........mining is worse for the environment and there are very few mines that can produce all the ingredients for blocks or concrete so it requires multiple mining operations. Let's not forget about the chemicals that are required for the production of both or the chemicals required for the original mining.
I didn't know they used Husqvarna, I thought they all used Stihl.
Not every cutter is literate.... some can barely use crayons
Are you sure its not one too many zeroes in the value of these trees??
Ms661 is not thire biggest saw, stihl has an ms880. Now that thing is a monster of a saw... but this show could have been recorded before stihl manufactured it.
wonder how many big foots these men have encountered
All huskys I think
@Malik Martin most cases, yes. But I really like the 390xp, for example
Beautiful old trees, sad to see them go down.
What do they do with the area after the trees have been cut down? Do they plant more seeds or are they going to build homes in that area?
Depends on who owns the land. If it's owned by a logging company they usually replant and harvest again in a 10-20 year time frame. If it's private land the landowner gets a cut of the profit from the trees. And what they do is up to them.
@@chriss6398 10 to 20 years. Not likely.
@@nobodythatyouknow241 I dirt bike on logging roads all the time and it's actually hilarious what tiny little new growth trees they are willing to log sometimes.
@@nobodythatyouknow241 50-to 60 more like it.
661 and 390 are the biggest saws they make… 880 and 3120 don’t exist I take it
Well the co dominant tree wouldn’t hit the three guys if they weren’t all standing together 🙄. No two tree length rule down there in Oregon?
As a fellow tree guy, I’d like to know: why the ratchet noise for a t wrench??? Come on. Get it together.
Smh
Log not lot
It's not like we need those three it's not like the amazon rain forest is on fire or anything
Trees that have reached maturity recycle less oxygen then a young tree or one at mid life. They will replant new trees. Often two for every one tree removed.
It's not on fire you idiot
Burrrrn baby burnnn 😂
@@norgepalm7315 well not anymore
@@DieselManche Could you please cite your source?
This is ridiculous!
But wait, the bosses phone rings. If this call lasts longer than 30 seconds the crew wo t get done on time, and start losing a hundred million dollars per day.
He could also take the double one at a time. There's no reason why he had to take the double at the same time, and a lot of reasons not to try.
You almost always take the “double” trees at the same time because they’re usually limb tied and can’t be felled separately
The man with a shill
Those boys are cutting way too up far tree. A lot of wastes timber. Someone should tell them too lay off the Meth
So... What's the point?
Make room for plenty of small new trees.
Hemp boards will hopefully make cutting trees down pointless.
Forests need managment to prevent forest fires
I can agree with that.
A door stop would make you pointless
Lol hemp will never replace dimensional lumber.
Wow U encourage the youth cut more trees well done
They plant more trees than they cut down and help the economy more than you ever will
These people will make the forest as desert storm n few years
SURPRISING TO SEE THE LOGGERS NOT USING SAFETY FACE SHIELDS OR OTHER SAFETY GEAR....NO NEED FOR THIS IN TODAYS SAFETY CONSCIOUS WORLD....
Op p
Kermet the frog ate western Oregon?
When the guy Craig rygard hit that guy with a tree after putting a x on his hat . That was premeditated attempted murder and there is no statute of limitation in all 50 states for that . And he looked so dumb as his son stuck up for him when his dad was at the wrong . Also making himself a accessory. That guy 20 years from now can charge him and they play that episode on tv as a rerun over and over . Evidence to prosecute.
make concrete with sand and clay and hay. this is sad.
How long do think that's going to last
Poor safety precautions!
Deforestation is bad
Bro
good thing this is a video of sustainable harvesting and not deforestation.
Say that to Brazil
Sadly this lost knowledge / experience is lost with these Millennials. Once these old blokes die this knowledge & experience dies with them. Hopefully the next generation of future logging bosses will learn from them before this gold education is gone & lost forever.
If it needs to be done they'll figure out a way.
@@jeffcarroll1990shock Not always as experience is your best teacher.
@@matthewbrown6163 failure is an even greater teacher.
@@jeffcarroll1990shock Death is the ultimate failure
@@matthewbrown6163 correct. Doing it the old-fashioned way gets a lot of people killed. Newer ways will minimize death.
Cutting those down is criminal
Logging is an easy job, remove time and rushing, no difference between crabbing.the world is fkd up.
ok chuckles, come on out and give er a go then
So what’s the purpose to cutting these trees? Just for fun?
3500 a tree is roughly anyones motivation..
RICH people use it to build houses.
Its fun to watch americans do this as a european and see how much they are doing wrong lol
SpecialDetermence or maybe ur just a know it all that most people can't stand?
What are they doing wrong?
As Americans it was fun watching Europe in the early1940s and see how much they were doing wrong.
Adding stupid noises were they done belong typical history/discovery channel move I hate how they’ve become reality channels instead of learning channels
Good job spelling axe wrong.
That ain't old growth! Seven trees a day? They're kidding right? The four foot bars are laughable.
Men just stop cutting anymore trees. I want to live
I agree with one part of your comment-The word "Men" .They are top of the food chain guys.There's lots of males today,very few men unfortunately.
If you wanna live you better start planting and stop complaining
Trees are a renewable resource. Usually the land is replanted and harvested again like a farm.
Makes me sick to see them cutting down these beautiful old growth trees.
Yeah not like trees can be replanted or anything.
Not old growth timber. They're not only too small, but the Pacific Northwest is pretty good at protecting natural resources. In my home state, most old growth timber is protected by state law and the old growth that isn't directly protected is protected by roundabout ways such as road building restrictions or something of that nature. To call this stand old growth is strictly to make it sound scary for the viewer and that's all.
People ruin good land
What do you mean
1st
Boy and the world and people are going out of The world of people and I think 💬 the same as the world and people have been and I have the best and the day and the world and the same time I have a world book day of the world of people and I will be able friend and I and I will be on a good time and the world and people have been and the day and I will be able friend of the world of people who the world and email it was the same time I will get the same as you can do to you and the day with you 💟 and I think I can get the same as the world and the day with a good boy body
