When this man was cutting down a tree, a serious accident nearly happened. He had only cut halfway through the tree when the remaining part suddenly started to fall. This caused him to lose his balance, and the chainsaw slipped from his hands. He could have been seriously injured. That's why loggers make a special notch cut in the tree, allowing it to safely and easily fall backward. This small mistake can cost a person their life. This is a risky method of harvesting beetle nuts in Bangladesh. Before the nuts ripen, farmers practice by swinging from one tree to another so they can easily collect them later. Because of this skill, they can harvest beetle nuts from the entire garden by climbing just one tree. After that, the nuts are dried in the sun. Later, they are sold in the market as they are used to make beetle quid for people to chew. Here you can see that as soon as this tree is cut, an incredible amount of water comes out from inside, leaving everyone amazed. This tree is called the traveler's palm.
