Not to get all conspiracy theory, but there's no way in hell a 16-year-old kid did this. Not by himself. This is a professional tree cutting job, complete with perfect guide marks on the trunk for sawing.

Note: if you want to argue with me about this, don't tell me that teenagers can use chainsaws. I know they're capable of that. I'm saying that teenagers don't make professional cuts on the first try through an enormous trunk.

I'm a pedant too but goddamn
