Things won't break, as long as you make a steady pull. But don't get a run at it ....... then things can break.
I use the forks to pry out the surface roots, then get up a few feet on the tree and push it over. Take out 30-35' spruce trees this way.
Have cut the roots around a 12-14" oak tree, then tied high in the tree and easily pulled it over including the root ball. Much easier pulling than I thought it would be.
Just save a lot of hassle and don't end up with stumps...leave the tree on them
