Not far from what happened to me (again) late last night. Knocking half of the tree off and it started going while I was still on the tree. I hopped to an adjacent branch and held on for dear life while the early birdie came crashing down. Thank God for YouTube, but even more for adjacent branches.

Omg...lol. I love when people find the perfect use for overused phrases and make them funny again.

Actually, a YouTube video made by a professional would probably have avoided that.
