Used my chainsaw once to bust out a shelving unit in my garage years ago. Dog just looked at me with a WTF look.
I also knew a guy several years ago that was cutting a branch with a chainsaw while standing on his tip toes in the bucket of his tractor while it was as high as it would go. Obviously, no good can come from this. The branch swung down hitting him in the chest. He went off the back of the bucket. Fortunately, he had enough sense to throw the chainsaw as far as he could. He bounced off the front tire of the tractor on his way down. He lived, but he was not moving well for a long time.
Chippers are cool, but they frighten me. So much can go wrong if you aren't careful. Also, Fargo people hate the movie Fargo. It was filled in Brainerd, MN. They might throw you in a chipper just for referencing the city to the movie. People in Fargo don't talk like the movie. You have to go to the small towns in Minnesota or North Dakota to get people talking like dat. Ya, heh der. Oof Da!
