This makes a lumberjack look like a little girl



There is a tree on campus that is infected with some sort of fungus presumably. The bottom is all bulged out. It needs to come down. So men have started climbing up with about a 5 m ladder. The tree is about 30 m high. So after the ladder ended this man climbed up barefoot, an axe tucked into his pants. He then chops off these giant dead branches, both hands on the axe. Back leaned against the trunk, and feet on the limb he is cutting. It's a pretty daring feat.
