0:00.0 | Welcome to our Slash Pro Revenge, where a moron cuts down his neighbor's trees and learns a |
0:06.0 | $2 million lesson. Our next post comes from Twitter. A friend of mine, who's a municipal |
0:12.2 | arborist, just called to tell me about a guy who cut down 32 big mature trees on his neighbor's |
0:19.5 | New Jersey property to get a better view of New York City. He hired a guy who hired another guy. |
0:25.5 | He cut them down and just left the debris there. The fine per tree is $1,000, so this guy |
0:32.0 | probably thought that he was just going to pay a $32,000 fine. But my arborist friend rode |
0:38.1 | violations to all three parties, 96 violations in all. And there's a provision requiring the |
0:45.5 | replanting of like trees of the same size. And it's on a mountain side that's inaccessible by |
0:51.6 | road. My friends put the landowner in touch with the only guy who would take on such a job. |
0:57.1 | They have to build a road, remove the debris, plant big trees, and water them for two years. |

1:18.4 | he probably figured would be increased so much that a $32,000 fine was worth it. Man, |
1:24.4 | a $1.9 million fine? Unless this guy is mega rich, that is a life destroying amount of money. |
1:32.0 | Man, imagine working your entire life and amassing several million dollars and having a really |
1:36.8 | nice piece of property, and then losing it all. Every single penny you own just because you |
1:41.0 | decided to cut down your neighbor's tree. Tree law is nasty, man. Our next reddit posted from |
1:46.6 | SC Super Jack. Many years ago, I worked in the lovely career of retail. Sadly, it's normal for |
1:54.1 | you to encounter a constant flow of shops come that make you despise your existence. And some of |
2:00.5 | them are so horrific that what they do to you is burned into your mind forever. Fortunately, |
2:07.2 | one of those unforgettable moments allowed me to extract my revenge. I had only been working in |
2:13.2 | retail for one year in this newly built store and I was starting to settle in. I was getting to know |
