biggest tree I've ever cut!

What happens here

Before felling any tree, ensure all necessary safety gear is worn. This includes a hard hat with an integrated face shield and hearing protection (earmuffs), as well as chainsaw chaps. The hard hat protects from falling debris, the face shield from flying wood chips, hearing protection from loud chainsaw noise, and chainsaw chaps protect the legs from accidental chainsaw contact. The creator also explains the need to move livestock (cows) out of the felling area to ensure their safety.

Goal: Ensure personal safety and clear the work area of hazards
