This stuff used to be on ESPN back in the day and it was always fun to watch.

I admire the tasks that lumberjacks and lumber jills perform.

@lumberjackworldchampionships Год назад

It's no small feat, even with modern logging tools & equipment!

@SandyWolf- Год назад

I went to Red Pine camp for girls in Minocqua Wisconsin back in the late '60s and we had a log that we used to roll in the water you had to stand on and run without falling off! I got pretty good at it too! This story brought back some great memories

@sallyannedeegan4302 Год назад

When I was a kid...my family went to a lumberjack festival and I watched my Dad climb up that pole...faster than the other men, too. So much fun.

@lumberjackworldchampionships Год назад

That's awesome! Who is your dad??

@sallyannedeegan4302 Год назад

@@lumberjackworldchampionships my dad passed away in 1981....he was 57....he was such an amazing man...... so popular in town cuz he was the main hockey coach in the hockey school.... his boys went on to win the state championship for 2yrs in a row. The good reality do die young

@tantilist1449 Год назад

My mom was also very good at climbing up and down a pole.

@b.visconti1765 Год назад

Didn't think much of it till I went to one and found how exciting it really is!

@edwardvillate2112 Год назад

My ANCESTORS , from the BASQUE COUNTRY , NORTH SPAIN & SOUTH FRANCE , we're in INDUSTRY even BEFORE , AMERICA was DISCOVERED , it's a very BIG SPORT in that REGION and the ARTESAN 🪓 AXE production is VERY MUCH ‼️😉💯.... A LIVE ......

@wjcorrinne4052 Год назад

Let’s hear it for Northland College, the home of the Lumberjacks and Lumberjills , it’s about an hour and a half north of Hayward in a city Ashland, on Lake Superior.

@Bluesbabesrv Год назад

Who knew sport of lumberjack could be so interesting!

@pamelamays4186 Год назад

I used to watch the world lumberjack championships on ESPN. My favorite event the log rolling competition.

@pamelamays4186 Год назад

"I'm a lumberjack and I'm okay....."🎶🎶🎶

@4dirt2racer0 Год назад

o thats cool this all started in west virginia.. its also cool that all the stuff theyre doing actually serves practical purposes when actually working, i thought maybe some of it was jus made up to test n showcase a certain skill a lot of work i do is treework but i wouldnt title myself a lumberjack, these dudes r on a whole other level

@FhargaZ 10 месяцев назад

Even my dog had a flannel after the video 😂

@discoverykai1547 Год назад

Amazing video

@jackchitty2401 Год назад

They are called lumber carnivals for a reason. No Mention of Oregon? That seems odd.

@tomgrams2333 Год назад

They were covering the World Championship held in Hayward, Wi.

@Gracetx90 Год назад

Just like any another sport

@pamelamays4186 Год назад

Why is this not an Olympic sport?

@krisalexander4974 Год назад

Oh my, lawn bowlers will be so upset.

@bryans4891 Год назад

What if one of the men became a lumberjill, that would tip the scales

@calmnarrative Год назад

Lumberjill is the female version of Lumberjack

@Goldone99 Год назад

@alexthompson9516 Год назад

The Lumberjackoffs.

@steveconn Год назад

Cue Monty Python's gay lumberjack song (please cut down the remaining trees. Not like we need them).

@alexthompson9516 Год назад

Everybody hates trees!

@Lebowski098 7 месяцев назад

Cut more timber , wisely

@nanodudek Год назад

Why not call them Lumberjackies instead of Lumberjills 🤔?

@PigRipperLAW Год назад

Seems like a waste of good wood. “Things my wife also says”

@theotherohlourdespadua1131 Год назад

You can still use it as stove fuel...

@russellspear4911 Год назад

Set to the song from Monty Python , for the wokeies.

@lewstone5430 Год назад

Interesting, but it better never become an Olympic event.

@PacoOtis Год назад

While we were doing this the Chinese were developing better AI. Different ways to focus our future, I suppose. Best of luck to all of us!

@yvonneplant9434 Год назад

Well, we have MAGAs who think that a cultural rollback to about 1955 makes sense.

@tomgrams2333 Год назад

It's a sport! Like all the others WE do while the Chinese are doing whatever they do. Has nothing to do with going back to 1955. Look at all the sports competitions there are: besides foot, basket, base ball, soccer, swimming, la crosse, curling, skiing, skating, card game tournaments, bowling, golfing, pickleball, tennis, badminton, croquet, cricket, etc etc.....

@theotherohlourdespadua1131 Год назад

Dude, it's just a sport...
