Were there any wedges used before the hinge was cut off ? The pic looks like it went the wrong way off the stump.
All hit the crotch of the ash. None of the hinges were pointed to fall towards that tree. It just sucked those pines right towards it, almost magically.
It was a very windy day and they were cutting aspen one got hung up and instead of waiting for his brothers return with the skidder to dislodge the tree, the victim kept felling trees it was while he was limbing and topping that the wind disloged the hung up tree crushing his skull between the tree and a stump.
