Real? Yes, watch the videos, if you don't believe me. If they're fake, someone went to a lot of trouble...

Sad? Why?

Note that the purpose of the walking tree-cutting machine is to minimize impact to terrain while maximizing stability.

Thus, this rather interesting gadget is actually a pretty good thing for the trees and soil. After all, the alternative is not "they wouldn't cut down trees", but rather "they'd cut down trees using some bulldozer-like thing with tank treads, crushing everything on the ground as well, and at greater danger to human life."

true. but there's really no need to cut down the trees in the first place... but you're totally right. *sigh*

Hear that high-pitched shrieking sound? That's Paul Bunyan - spinning like a Dervish in his grave.

I've seen this thing in action, with my own two eyes. It is numbing, awe-inspiring and downright terrifying.
