Restoring great grandparents' farmhouse in Italy : challenging DIY tree removal

DIY renovating our off grid ancestral home in Southern Italy. We plan to renovate our traditionally built stone house using natural materials and traditional methods (to the extent possible), doing much of the work ourselves. In this video, we show how we removed a large oak tree that was leaning over the house and causing roof damage. Disclaimer : This video is intended for entertainment purposes only. This is not intended to be an instructional video nor is it intended to suggest that anyone can do this kind of work without proper training. Tree work is extremely dangerous and there are many safety considerations that were not explained (and often not followed) in this video. Acknowledgements : Here is a list of some of the tree workers and loggers whose videos I studied to learn how to do this : ‪@AugustHunicke‬ ‪@GuiltyofTreeson‬ ‪@TreeMuggs_PatrickM‬ ‪@Top_Branch‬ ‪@BuckinBillyRaySmith‬ ‪@TravorAhern‬ ‪@arboristBlairGlenn‬ ‪@terryhale9006‬ I also benefited from discussions on various forums, like the Tree Work Tips and Tricks facebook page and the r/arborists subreddit. Without these videos and forums, it would not have been possible for me to learn these techniques in a reasonably short amount of time.
