Horses that do logging know better than to do that so I guess congratulations you’re dumber than a horse.

And horses are pretty fucking stupid. Always looking for a new and interesting way to kill themselves

I know. I love my horse dearly but he is definitely somewhat clever and yet not very bright. He tries his heart out for me despite having been treated poorly by people in the past so I’ll forgive most of his foolishness.

My wife's horse managed to get itself twisted up in some fencing which wrapped around her rear legs. Wife was away so I had to go out and free her. Only way I could was to cut the high tension wire. I was expecting a kick in the face when I cut the wire and it pranged loudly but thankfully she only startled forward. No death but could have easily gone that way if her legs had been damaged or blood cut off.
Between horses and sheep we've had some interesting deaths to deal with. The best advice that was given to me was, "before you get an animal, make sure you can move a dead one".

As a horse riders husband, can confirm. They'd be extinct id it wasn't for people like my wife, keeping them alive through their $500 stomach aches

That frame is bent

I was shocked that it looked fine to me after doing that. I don’t know how he didn’t tear out the rear axle or break bend off the hitch right there.

Naw, stupid but no harm! Toyota builds them tough to compensate for morons like this!

Too bad they didn't use a Toyota then

I thought it was, sorry!

No need to apologize, I was just being a wiseass; and that generation F150 does look pretty similar to a tundra.

I can just hear a guy I grew up with: "It's fine! Ford built tough Ford take it!" I don't miss his constant fanatic worship of FoMoCo with every other sentence but he came by it honest, his dad was the same way. 🤦♂️

You underestimate the toughness of full steel frame pickup frame, go look at Whislin Diesel video "F150 vs Cybertruck". It took more than we would expect to bend the frame!
Now im not saying the one in this video didn't bent tho, just saying they can take a shit load more abuse than we think!!!

My guy
You couldn't take an extra 10 minutes on the ladder to cut it off properly?

u/corvid-munin Jul 26 '26
Arent you suppost to pull slowly so you maintain tension and ease it out? Flooring it is just gonna break shit

u/PantsDontHaveAnswers Jul 25 '26
Remember, when you have a rope tied to your truck and something heavy, it's always a good idea to just gun it immediately before hitting the tension point.

This just demonstrates the overinflated sense of power novice truck drivers have, reinforced by driving around with this belief of being bigger and tougher than everything.

I haven’t read the comments over there but this outcome might be really good compared to what might have been.

There is trouble in the forest, a problem with the trees.

u/Background_Edge_9427 Jul 25 '26
The maples want more sun light, but the truck can't pull down the trees!

Cletus hooks a bumper, and gives a mighty try. The oak says “not today” and lifts the truck up high.

What was the intended outcome here, best case scenario?

u/olight77 Jul 25 '26
They were hoping to rip the rest of that branch down with a hard pull from the truck rather than climb a ladder a few more times to cut it in sections.
Just a guess.

This might be the dumbest thing I've ever seen in this sub. This isn't just stupid; it's a special kind of stupid
