DieChecker Posted March 3 #27 Share Posted March 3 Maybe a downdraft micro burst? I'd also consider an animal rubbing aggressively against the tree, Bear? Moose? Invisible dragon? Hyrax? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What could this be? There are several possibilities of what caused this. A 7-8foot tall undocumented and mythical beast is not one of them.

Yes, they are jinxed. My coworker was driving one with a brush blade clearing a skid road. A good sized limb whipped around the canopy and caught him in the face. He shut down, jumped off the cat and right onto a yellowjacket nest. We blamed the D6. 1 Top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

simplybill Posted March 11 #37 Share Posted March 11 I don’t see it “rushing through the taiga”. It looks more like the downdraft from a helicopter hovering above the trees and being filmed by another helicopter or a drone. 2 Top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its tree movement is far too localised and continuously moving. CGI - monsters or ents Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have forests in the high desert AND I have not spent my whole life in the desert. I have lived in several places that had forest and my job required me to be in those forests. Though I still think it looks more like CGI. Edited March 19 by Desertrat56 1 Top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nobu Posted March 31 #46 Share Posted March 31 This was a tree huggers video excerpt from a dozer in the Amazon. Old news 1 Top Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+razman Posted April 8 #47 Share Posted April 8 At around 11 seconds it looks like something moves away from the tree towards the opening. It would help if the video was clearer when looking at full screen. Maybe just an elephant , not sure if Taiga has elephants , but maybe moose or something.

Buzz_Light_Year Posted April 8 #48 Share Posted April 8 I thought it might be a landslip but then it looked like it started going back uphill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darkmoonlady Posted April 11 #49 Share Posted April 11 Its not the Amazon. That's from a pipeline site prep from a First Nations video. I remember watching it a few years back. They were. Not using dozers, it's one if those tree eating machines where it grabs them and if the video hadn't been edited you see it chunked down, you can literally see the access road in the bottom right hand of the clip. You can see one in action here and how it moves whole trees. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
