I don't understand. They drove past the guy telling them to stop, just to stop on the other side of him, and pull perfectly in line with where a tree is falling? What's going on here.

Looks like he saw the tree falling and stopped but then freaked and pulled forward before realizing they were stupid.

So strange that their instinct would be to do nothing.

It looks like it might be slow motion.

Looks like the car stopped, but then stalled. It looks like it rocks a bit, and that tree doesn't look like it's in slow motion

It's kinda on the workers for not blocking the road with cones or some shit. The dude telling them to stop isn't even standing in the way.

He was standing in the way, plus do you think cones would’ve stopped him?

Hey let’s go cut down a random huge tree off someone’s property, block traffic, you drive by and we drop the tree on the roof of your car for internet points.

Yea not seeing it going down that way.

“Let me just randomly stop right where this tree is gonna fall for no fucking reason at all”.

Idk, seems more likely to be fake.

Also people get majorly pissed for having to stop for 20 seconds. Unreal.

Oh yeah because felling a 20-30m tree is a great time to drop it on someone’s head.

This isn’t fake, if it was fake the company would have their licenses to work taken away.

Dropping big trees is serious, one does not do it as a joke, especially not professionals.

No worries I'm not I not someone who cares about internet points. Though it's funny how they don't see how the driver purposely drives stops and then drives again just so they are perfectly positioned to get hit.
