I imagine that felling a monster tree is similar to a Linesman climbing a tall pole.  You fall off of short poles.  No one falls from tall ones.   ;D
The fall don't hurt.

Yep it is the sudden stop at the bottom that will leave a mark ;)  that and all the limbs on the way down, home it wasnt a thorn tree lol...

How big of a wave would it take to put a tree that size on the beach?  Especially lengthwise.

The first picture also looks like it has some limbs left.  Would those limbs survive in the surf?

That's a nice tree! Cut some 4" thick slabs, and you'd have most of a wall for a cabin. Of course you'd need some BIG equipment to put them in place.
