Oh the list could go on and on.

That picture would be pure luxury since it was at least inside!

I was probably in high school before I realized there was a way to pull an engine that didn't involve a tree.

my first thought as well was how nice of an indoor space that is...

but i doubt you would've thought to take a picture even if it had been free, as it was just 'how this is done'. or even more realistically, you didn't have the time to take the picture because the hydraulic lines could let go at any minute!

but if you ever get bored while driving with younger people, it's fun to point at tree branches and rate them according to the size motor that could be yanked out with them...
