[Florida Man] Saving my pool cage during Hurricane Ian
I compressed about 10 minutes of video while I fought with this palm tree before the winds changed direction enough to likely destroy my pool cage, down to slightly over 1 minute.
Enjoy the antics. Pretty sure this is the first time I've ever flipped off a tree. |

You need a new chain, or perhaps a new saw.

You could have dropped that Palm faster with a handsaw (or axe).

I have a guardian angel from the forum who has sent me new chains. I had 1 remaining brand new chain, which I used just a few minutes ago to cut through some of the downed palms. After 7 cuts, the chain was dull.
More about the wonderful person who did this in a later thread. |

As big as you are might have been quicker to just jump up and hang onto the tree... I'll send some butter knives for next hurricane.

Glad your cage held I would hate to hear your pool escaped.
