My lucky day

It certainly was your lucky day. We always try to avert that type of incident yet there always seems to be "that one time".
Glad that you came out of it OK.

Wow omg! Yeh, that musta been exciting. Lucky how that thing fell on the tractor, too...just on top of loader arms.

When they start to fall it's in slow motion and you think "I have plenty of time to get out of the way." Once they reach midpoint though, everything starts to fast-forward.

Neighbor recounted the day he was incapacitated by a tree. He cut it down and it got hung up on another tree. Neighbor took his lunch break and when he walked back to finish the tree, it fell on him. He looked me right in the eye and said, "it was just waiting for me".

Holyyyyy!
Super lucky...

I was in the woods yesterday removing trees and stumps close to the edge of the trails. I was thinking of this situation constantly and I’m starting to consider adding some type of frame and roof to my ROPS

Glad no one got hurt, always afraid of these with so many leaners and snags here.

The D3 saved me... A very large Bay tree from an upper bank landed square on the ROPS corner support across the operator area..

All I was doing is rolling down the fire trail and WHAM!

Had it not been CAT dozer ROP I doubt I would be here...

Wow! 6 inches either way and something expensive would have been damaged. At least you noticed it before it hit. Thanks for sharing.
