I do not mess with standing dead trees if they have any size to them. I have knocked over and dug up hundreds of young pine trees most of them small enough that if they fell on me it might hurt but probably not kill or injure me. The closest calls I have had was when pushing them into big piles sometimes one would bend into a bow then ride over the bucket and snap back towards me. Fortunately it missed me. But I'm pretty sure it would have hurt me bad if it had hit me. I'm very careful about that now.
