Number 1 Woodcutter, Nicknamed Spider-Man, Thrives in Risky Career for Good Income

Chiang Mai: A young man from Chiang Mai, nicknamed 'Spider-Man,' makes a living cutting down large trees, climbing, using a sling, and acting like a spider. It's a risky job, but the pay is good. In his free time, he likes to sleep in trees. This young man, named Jai Kid, is 31 years old and has been a big tree cutter for many years. He uses a chainsaw to cut down trees that cover houses and buildings. Every time he cuts, he needs a crane to help pull the tree branches down to the ground so that they don't fall on the roof. He will hang from the crane's sling, move around in the trees, or use a sling to attach himself to the branches, support himself in the air, hold the chainsaw in his hand, climb with agility, and protect himself by using the sling to hold himself up. Sometimes he does difficult tricks, lying down horizontally as if he is floating in mid-air. If he gets tired, he will lie on a big tree branch. Many people are impressed by his ability, giving him a thumbs up, earning him the nickname 'Spider -Man.' He is also the number 1 tree cutter, cutting every branch with almost no crooked wood. The surface of the stump is smooth and beautiful.

According to Thai News Agency, Mr. Jaikit said that sometimes it can be scary and he has made mistakes as well. Cutting requires technique, otherwise the branches will swing towards the person cutting, which can cause injury or fall from the tree. This job pays well. Although it is risky, he is very careful and emphasizes safety. He has cut down a tree that is almost 30 meters tall. Each time he cuts, he earns 2,000 - 3,000 baht. It takes less than 1 day.
