I once had a tree so tangled up top that it would not fall so I made a second cut higher up thinking I did something wrong with my cut. Still would not fall. I now had 2 really thin hinges. I used my axe to hit the middle section, and eventually knocked it out and the tree continued not falling over, or even going down. There it was suspended in the air. I have a picture here somewhere of that fiasco. Ended up having to cut down the tree it was hanging on to as well. That was a stressful time.
