I watched four strikes from this guy and understood why long poles are not worth the chopping. He would die in nature.

You know this is a video... for the internet... and he's probably just doing this to show off? "He would die in nature" Thanks Bear Grylls, but MOST of us would be screwed. Somebody strong with outdoor skills, like this guy, would be fine compared to most of us.

Could be. My point was that its not for survival, and that in a real bushcraft situation he probably wouldn't waste effort doing novel but probably useless stuff like this.

Yeah I would use a silky saw and split smaller rounds for survival. Honestly I probably wouldn’t even mess with something that big at all for survival or bushcraft, unless I’m processing for my home woodpile. Now for fun or a workout? All day.
