How many rounds did it take to cut down that much wood?
Just watching/seeing that makes my tummy queezy.
I've seen them that close up in Alaska, had a pod of them chasing "food", I'm guessing salmon one summer I was there. Was on Dad's charter boat out of Homer. A couple idiot boats decided they needed to chase them so their clients could get some good pictures, they went deep, hauled ass and popped back up over a mile away.
Dad and I went out on one of his buddy's boats (50' party boat, they would put 26 people on it fishing for halibut) a couple days later, we were down by some islands just north of Kodiak, about 5 hours from Homer; had what we guessed was 50 humpback whales sounding all around us. Could only see about 1/4 mile in that fog...pretty wild seeing all those big critters coming all the way out of the water and splashing down.
I used to climb antennas for a living, we considered anything over 50' is a death fall...going higher just gives you more time to think about it on the way down. That image looks like duder is over 1,000', probably good bit higher than that. I think the tallest antenna tower is 2,100 feet, somewhere in the midwest, South Dakota or Nebraska, can't remember.Just watching/seeing that makes my tummy queezy.
I got the nickname Mongo years ago riding dirt bikes, mainly because I looked like this on a KDX220
When finally gave up wrecking on dirt and went to wrecking on asphalt, I looked like this on my 650 V-Star too!
My best friend’s dad in the 1970’s was 6’3
And… not slim.
During the gas crunch of the late’70’s, he bought a Vespa to ride around town.
Everyone said he looked like “a monkey humping a football.”
They were not wrong!

Years ago I spent the summer working at a national park and we had those five gallon bucket traps under the lodge. We put a couple gallons of water in them so the mice would drown. Since it was a national park regular mouse traps were illegal, but drowning them was ok since it was a natural death. Your government at work.
I used to climb towers, and we joked that the difference between 100' and 200' was open casket/closed casket. I just did a rope rescue course at work for ERT, and the instructor said I was the only guy he'd heard tell that joke outside the training community. On another note, I was a bit surprised that we didn't use any dummies for the course. We all got to take turns being the patient for packaging and raising/lowering. It was a bit nerve wracking getting lowered off this stairway in the basket and trusting a bunch of new recruits to get everything right.
