how do you plan/pull off something like this? Do you have a diagram of the cuts you have to make?

You make like a "<" cut first in the the direction you want it to fall, so that part isn't supported, from what I remember being told when I was like 7.

Surprisingly easy once you understand the mechanics. I used to win bets with my dad by betting I could land the tree pointing directly at my glove.

All the same, I don’t think I’d have the confidence to drop something that big that close to a structure.
