And the driveway next door. Windy last night and this morning - bunch of trees and branches in the neighborhood blew down.

45 year old neighbor from upstairs - 6'1" and 240 pounds and his wife are bleating because they need to go to work and are frantically calling taxis (lol olds). My wife also needs to go to work.

After ripping off my posers, I break off the extra branches and fucking hulk the entire tree by myself away from both driveways and drop it into the street so that it's blocking part of the street instead of our driveway.

The "male" neighbor sheepishly gets into his car and drives off while his wife and my wife faint from the sight.

I called the city and since the tree is blocking the sidewalk and the street they will come cut it up and take it away.

And yes the tree was a birch tree and it was dry and dead so it was not THAT heavy, but it was pretty heavy.

The whole tree probably weighed 600-700 pounds. I just had to move one end which weighed about 200 pounds.

The tree was not 80 feet long and 24" across. It was 30 feet tall with a diameter of 6-12 inches.

I was able to get a fairly heavy elderly neighbor (not super fat but tall and kind of big for an older guy) back into his wheelchair after a fall and i credit deadlifts.

Yes. We still have trees and driveways. Which is why the shrews were panicking - three of them had to leave for work.

I could have slept in for another 90 minutes.

Big dead rotting branches are very dangerous. That guy at Google and a governor of Texas got paralyzed from falling branches.
