  • Never ever, ever underestimate a Paw - Paw with a come-along and a pulley. Ever.

    Lever, fulcrum, block & tackle... tools from the beginning of human understanding of tools. Good on you, Papa! You made a tough job look easy. Kudos!

    Just what every husband loves doing. A honey-do chore on their day off while the wife sits, watches, critiques, and tells them how to do it. Watched my poor dad go through this for decades.
  • Thank God she told him about the tractor. He would have never figured that out on his own...lol! That's like a husband watching his wife in the kitchen mixing the ingredients for a cake and saying, ''now, if you put that mixture in the oven it will bake into a cake.''
  • Dude never could have done it without the advice and assistance of the camera person. So helpfull
  • A rope can be tied at an angle away from you to prevent a failure in the rigging coming back in your face. I used to rig submarines to tug boats in the Thames River,Groton, CT. Seen some bad things happen. It’s amazing the amount of energy released when a line snaps.

    “Unless that was you.” 🤣 I bet he felt that the next morning.
  • This guy has the patience of a saint. Not for pulling the stump but for dealing with the woman's instructions while she is holding the fence in place and the camera.
  • And that my friends is why you should never underestimate an old man, just imagine what he was like in his prime. 😉👍
  • It's called a gin pole, grandaddy knows his stuff, you can tell he worked for a living
  • I've seen plenty of 20 year old's who don't work that hard... way to go Sir!
  • Stump pulling 101, never doubt an old man when he says he’s done it before , there ends the lesson
  • Great job taking all that advice from your wife, and not letting it get to you.

    Doesn't seem safe, his location in relation to all that tension. If one thing breaks, instant tragedy.

    He had the right idea but wetting the ground with 50 gallons of water the night before could have made it so much easier. That's basically what a storm does right before the wind uproots everything.
  • Pops still got it. I learned something from watching this and I'm going to use it. Thank you.
  • I grew up among my grandpa’s friends (construction workers the lot of them). I wish I knew how blessed I was when I would listen to their endless chit chat during lunch and after work. All the dirty hilarious jokes that just flew right pass me and all the accumulated knowledge
