Of course, then there's the experts who don't. I recall
seeing video on CNN several years ago of a tree service
using a crane to lift a large tree out of a backyard, over
the house. Since it wouldn't be news if it had worked as
planned, you know what happened next: the tree got dropped
on the house, causing all manner of damage.

There was some reason why it couldn't be taken down piece-
wise, but I don't recall what it was.


Could be it was going to be transplanted. There is a machine that cuts
a huge root ball and takes the entire tree out.
