I just turned it on a little bit ago and have the first impression that that dude is a big Ahole and I dont think ill be watching this much. What a joke.

 

[thequietone]

Haven't even bothered to tune in, and I bet I can tell you every stupid thing he does.

And Dan doesn't think this guy should have OSHA up his brown ring?

 

[woodchux]

somebody is gonna get run over by that bobcat..."pulling wheelies to save tread on the front tires"

 

[tomtrees58]

I'm speachless, other than I put $20 on the climber!

I was amazed that he could get a bobcat up on one wheel. Guess he was saving the other three. I wonder how many bobcats he has tipped over?He needs to take crane rigging 101 too........ Mike

i got a idea why dont he give the pros the stihl because they know how to run them and he takes all the wildthings and what ever orther discount saw is out there. I agree with all of you this guy is a mess. This is what the jerry springer show would be if it focused on tree work or aleast it sounds like one with all the censored beeps

Hey if Michelle is not attached she can come work for me i dont need jelious bfs of husbands to worry about. On my jobs we dont yell at all so she will have a much more plesant day with me. LOLOLO:greenchainsaw:

 

[(WLL)]

i am speechless!! :jawdrop:

In both the picks . The one that lifted the roof and the other that swung back at the climber that was on the roof. The communication was there that there was a good chance for mishap to occur, but instead Paul took the chance. Boom was not over center and the climber was told to cut it anyhow. The one that lifted the roof was easily preventable by climbing up 10ft or so.

The main problem I'm seeing is that Paul doesnt know enough about the crane and likes to take chances with it to try and speed production. The main climber and the one with the beard may actually be good workers if they aren't instructed to go too big or fast. Under the right management with those toys it could be a nice company. Paul should stay in the office.

The one with the big hackberry is on now.

Holy god, Paul is a complete dumbass. If I worked for him I would be going out of my way to piss him off, including running my Huskies :rockin:

Wheres Dwayne and Melvin from Ax Men when they are needed.

I may not be a "pro" but whenever I do a job, any kind of job, I show up, get it done in a timely manner and without drama.

What a freaking tool.

Where is Tree MD and 046???? I think they both work in the Tulsa area. I bet they have some stories and opinions on Nosak....

Yes, I own a tree service in Tulsa and have worked with 046 as well as a few others from this site. All I have worked with from this site are true professionals. I'm not big on badmouthing the competition but I think this guys actions and work speak for itself.

Just to be clear, this guy is not from Tulsa, he is from PA and from what I have gathered made his money in the roofing and tile industry. It goes without saying that I feel humiliated when I see the footage that I can not watch for more than 5 minutes without cringing and turning the channel.

This guy is not a representative of my profession or my community. We have some really good tree professionals here. They are the unsung tree men that do it day in and day out to put food on the table for their families. I guess TLC would not be interested in seeing the real tree professionals in action as there is not much property damage or drama.

Wow, just wow.

Paul is officially the douche of the millennium.

Here is some reading about mister Nosak. Seems he started out funding and producing his own show locally. Then I'm assuming it got picked up by TLC and went national....

Why does he take his trees down in such huge chunks? If they're so hazardous to lift over houses and things wouldn't it make more sense to cut them to more of a manageable size? Is he just in a hurry? To me it would be better to do a job slower and safer than in a hurry and breaking stuff.

Thanks. Definitely not wanting to hear a bash fest from you. I just want to know if this is what really happens at this company all the time? I just want to believe this is mostly made up for TV. I find it hard to believe this is a true representation of this company. They do everything wrong. How can you stay in business if the job is done half-a$$ every time? I can't understand how they get big jobs and have a what seems to be a good reputation.

I love how they never chip anything. They just make a huge pile and then bring in the 18 wheeler and bobcat. When I work with the crane crew, whenever possible, we feed that thing straight into the chipper. So slick and fast. No need for a skid steer if the crane can get in there.

Even better when you have a winch on the chipper. I love the 1 stem cuts where you can winch the whole tree into the chipper as you lower it with the crane.
