Flying tree

The Aleppo is coming down, inch by inch, yard by yard (or cm by cm, metre by metre).  This is a huge branch being airlifted down to ground level.  You can see how big it really is in Extras.

It's a bit sad, but it's also easy to see that the tree was in worse health than we thought.  

The arborists really earn their money.  Each branch is being cut by a guy who's holding on with one hand and wielding an electric saw in the other.  He's a good 150 feet up in the air - with no safety net, although he was wearing a harness.

You wouldn't want to have vertigo in their job.
