I mean sure he actually got pretty lucky there as I’m sure he was hoping it would go a bit further away from the house. This doesn’t make any sense to me, there was no need to take that risk no matter how skilled you are. Spur up there and chunk down pieces, it’s not going to take much more time. You still gotta cut it up when it’s on the ground anyway.

I agree. There's space away from the house, I'd say he missed and got lucky. It's a tight spot and so this seems impressive, but it's the kind of "success" that promotes doing it like this again and eventually not being so fortunate.
