We had a couple of trees come down in the last few months. The first was a surprise to us and our garage. The other couple were taken down before they could be a surprise. It is really amazing how efficient the tree services were in their work.

I just bought spikes, a flip line and a bull rope plus extras to take a few down on our property. Watched my dad do it when I was a kid, I ran chainsaws during middle school and split wood with a maul and we heated with wood. A great yt channel by Bucking Billy is always fun to watch.
We took down a Maple in our yard several years back, maybe 40 YO. Guys had it done and dusted (literally, they vacced the sawdust) in about 4 hours.
If you want to go down a rabbit-hole of amazing work, "you-tube" up some fellers and toppers in the north-west or in Canada. Those guys are serious riggers and have an incredible understanding of physics. At one time I was going through the British Columbia felling standards course on you-tube. Made me appreciate how dangerous some of the stuff I did as an ignorant kid was. Now I don't mind paying the $$ for a professional to come and do it.

Boring and predictable
How close is your nearest ER?
Not to far, I also have quick clot lol. I've rappelled before so that helps. The flip line around the tree is actually a steel cable under the fabric. In case you Nick it lol. I have average size trees and a small one to practice on also.
Those, and paving crews.
