That was half the battle, to get the giant branches to fall in the right places!!
I can imagine it being hard if it was over a fragile roof. I had a free reign surrounded by trees and grass!

Still not an easy job to do on your own though!
We had a temp gardener many years ago with work experience in tree felling. We had to fell a giant tree between the cottage and a concrete fence. Some branches were cut, and super-strong rope was tied in strategic places on other branches, which hubby and 2 other guys had to pull. He knew how to cut wedges into the main trunk so it would fall in the right direction. He was full of confidence, and the giant fell perfectly, it was an amazing sight!
It was the days before cell phones so I could not video it.
His nephew now works for me.
Definitely not the easiest job althous I will be perfectly honest it doesn't sound like the kind of tough job you just described. Mine was a relatively young tree. Its trunk was only about thigh thick!
Hehe, good call on sniffling the nephew!
He's been an absolute blessing, hubby taught him many DIY skills as well.
Enjoy what's left of your Sunday, Mr. Boom!
