Biggest Red Oak Removal to Date! (Manitou MRT 2660)

We took on our biggest tree yet! A MASSIVE Red Oak decided it didn't want to hold on to a huge leader and dropped it on the eave of this house, decimating the back porch in the process. The leader itself was as big as a normal tree! We called Tomahawk Crane & Rigging for an assist with a 45 Ton. HUGE shout out to their Operator, Justin. He was awesome and made this job seamless! 00:00 00:20 The Day 1 Lowdown 02:40 Work Begins 03:30 Losing a chain 05:14 Why I like the Manitou 07:54 Ground Crew Things 08:52 Witness a Crime! 09:36 James Fights the Voices 09:52 We've had a Bad Week! 11:50 Checkpoint! 13:14 Bucket/Crane Combo Cuts 15:15 Stretched 15:32 Day 1 Wrap-up 16:50 Day 2 Intro from the Backyard 17:29 Waiting Game 17:41 Crane Setup 20:30 Big Picks 20:58 Evidence of Rot 21:35 Bigger Picks! 22:10 HEAVYYYY PICK 23:05 Leaky 23:40 Photo OP 24:00 Base Pick 24:50 I'm a Professional! 25:42 Cleanup 25:58 Wrap-Up Need a tree cut near Mobile County, Alabama?
