Fast forward to
24:45 see how it feels after 50 minutes of strenuous activity in 103 degree humid weather!!!!
This tree was 95' in Slidell, Louisiana
Did the ascent in real time with no time edits, and edited out time when blocking it down. Check out my short video "Poppin Bottles... With Trees" to see me throw the pole and smack a Powerade bottle with it.
This video was taken the day after my other video where the GoPro couldn't handle the heat. I did not have my hardhat with my helmet attachment for my first every full climb, so I had to wear the chest harness attachment. 2/10 do not recommend chest harness for climbing, it squeezes and constricts breathing and the angle is not as good as helmet!
I think taking down a dead 95' pine to the point we could throw it in a congested backyard in under an hour is pretty good for a first time climb.
