What happens here

The presenter moves on to a maple tree, noting its 'stump growth' characteristic, meaning it has multiple trunks growing from an old stump. He proceeds to cut down one of the maple trunks, making an undercut and then a back cut. As the first trunk falls, the cross-section reveals clear growth rings. He emphasizes the importance of safety during this process, especially with multiple trunks. He plans to fell all remaining trunks of this maple tree.

Goal: A maple tree with multiple trunks, originating from stump growth, is carefully felled by cutting each trunk individually, with the first trunk showing clear growth rings.
