"Aaaarghh...fucking tree just fell on me...fucking hell!!"

I also think he did bloody well to take the hit and keep in control...looked and sounded painful:pinch:


ps...I don't know if I could have...and I REALLY don't ever want to test that theory lol

If the branches had jammed his front brake lever on it would've been a very different story.
But he did well to keep it upright for sure.

I,m sure the tree guy is feeling pine now.

The wind blast created by the falling tree would have blown the GN sideways out of harms way...

But yeah, great job of that guy. :2thumbsup

I would have been going quicker thus, missing the event altogether as I would have been past that point before the tree had falling. Fate.

I suppose there will be a visit to his insurance company after that. At least there's a branch near him!

I win the pun comp!

It just proves that life's a birch.

Even so, I am sure it will be a poplar video.

You'd think he might've twigged onto something.

Nah, even though he is supposedly an Elder he couldn't give a Fig. Should have taken a Plane instead.

I grew up with the Two Ronnies so can probably keep this up all night.
