What happens here

The presenter continues felling trees, moving to the two persimmon trees he was particularly reluctant to cut. He successfully fells one of them. However, when felling the second persimmon tree, it becomes a 'hanger' – meaning it gets caught on another standing tree, creating an unstable and dangerous situation. This requires careful assessment and a safe strategy to bring the tree down without injury or further damage, often by pushing it down with machinery or pulling it with a winch (though not explicitly shown in this sequence).

Goal: The final two persimmon trees are felled, one of which becomes a 'hanger' by getting caught in another tree, demonstrating a dangerous situation that requires careful handling.
