wow great to see one go on video.
im suspicious of people just happening to drive past as one goes over (youve been framed/caught on camera) offer £250 for clips like that,
that guy seemed to stop where he thought it would land but it twisted and went to the rear of the car so he drove off?
but great clip Ekka

hi guys, the storm in NZ have been pretty bad here, our guys almost been going non stop. The other night we have to do a crane job in the dark with flood lights cause of a big pine limb bout to fall on a nice house but was held by a other pine, it was really hard as i could not see wot i was doing and to see how much weight i had for the crane as he could only give me 1.5 ton

After the 10 days of heavy rain our ground is soft and the high winds have had no trouble blowing some of the weaker trees over. We had a couple of Pines and a Macrocarpa drop on our golf course. Many branches down also. Those winds topped 160kph at times.
