What happens here

The presenter identifies a tall, dead tree leaning directly towards his shed, posing a significant risk. He decides to fell this tree by pulling it away from the shed using a rope and a truck. He climbs a ladder into the bed of his Ram 2500 pickup truck, attaches a rope to the tree, and then makes a cut near the base with a RedMax chainsaw. The truck then pulls the tree safely away from the shed.
