Apparently #%*@!! is pronounced in Norwegian the same as it is in English

What exactly did they do?

What exactly did they do?

They used dynamite to cut the tree into short enough lengths that they got it down from the power supply line

I thought it looked like an explosive, then I wondered how they got the charge (two charges?) on the fallen log near the electric lines? I guess they could shoot a rope over the log and pull the charges up into place.

I don't think so. That looks like primacord.

Second look, you could be right but it looks like primacord used to initiate the explosive charges.

I trim limbs away from mine with a 12gauge with a extra full turkey choke. Works great.
Would be a little sketchy if you were in a neighborhood though.

If your neighbors live that close it's time to move, anyways.
