WATCH: Guy’s Terrifying Tree-Cutting Job Almost Catapults Him To Outer Space

Oh, so you think your job sucks?

While you’re out having your happy hour watered down margaritas realize you might have it pretty easy.

You could be required to climb a palm tree taller than a building, having to chop the top off with a chainsaw (one-armed), all while you hold on for dear life as the tree then turns into a human catapult ready to launch your ass into outer space.

That’s what’s going on in this wild video from San Bernardino, California.

An arborist (“tree surgeon”) was tasked to do that exact job because “the palm was already crooked, causing danger to people who live nearby and passing through there.”

Balls of steel.
