Arborist Struck by Falling Limb!

I was felling tree for a customer and this one dropped a limb on me as it fell. honestly it's a rather incredible accident and I'm so glad I was not seriously injured.

Branches can be dislodge by the movement of the tree as it starts to fall, they can be knocked off by neighboring trees if they are touching it, or they can be thrown up into the air as the tree hits the ground. There are a number of practices that reduce the chances of being hit by falling debris. Getting out of the way is always a great idea. I certainly could have chosen a better path away from the tree. I should have. I wish I did. Regardless there is always a chance of not correctly predicting where a branch may land and therefore it is always important to wear appropriate PPE.
