What happens here

For certain trees, manual assistance is employed. One person leans against the tree, applying body weight to push it in the desired direction, or uses a rope for controlled pulling, while the other operator uses the chainsaw for the felling cuts. This method requires precise coordination and careful judgment between individuals, highlighting a more manual approach to assisted tree felling when heavy machinery is not used or is not ideal for the situation.
