With all the shaking going on – he may have just hanged himself.

They had a winch line slung over the opposite limb and hooked to the one he was cutting hoping cause it to be pulled away from what ever was below and to lower it safely to the ground. A slight miscalculation in the strength of the limb versus the build up of kinetic energy from the falling weight of the cut off limb very nearly ended in total disaster for the guy, aside from having a strong safety strap, dropping his chain saw may have been the smartest thing he had done to that point and that was involuntary I am sure
