    The guy who cut it pushed it sideways as it was falling, about 7 seconds into the clip, and it is an amazing feat on its own.

    I looked at the clip again and you are right, both the fallers felling were pushing it sideways as it was falling.

    it was already past the door portal when at 07 the guy at the door(presumably the tree feller) can be seen to give it a (one can imagine) huge push.
