Been wanting to have a large pine tree limb that was partially hanging over the house removed. I called my guy that did some work for me previously, last week. They got here yesterday afternoon late and went to work on several trees.
When I heard them start to work on the pine tree limb, I came out of the house just in time to here the crack of the limb. The guy that was holding the 40 ft ladder almost get hit by the thick end of the branch and the ladder get moved. I looked up and saw the guy at the top,grasping the broken limb from last years storm(Mathew)and desperately trying to hold onto the ladder with his feet. The chainsaw was dangling on a rope attached to his waist.
Some tense moments, but they managed to get the ladder back in place and nobody hurt. Close one.
