Mini Excavator VS Massive Stump. Is It Even Possible?
Published at : 23 Dec 2025
Is it even possible to dig this huge stump with my machine? This is a 200 year old beech stump. I took down the tree in my last video, and now it's time to tackle this beast.
Common questions: Why didn't I turn the bucket around? I didn't think I would be able to dig under far enough, but I wish I had tried it. Next time! Why didn't I bury the stump? As it rots, it would have caused a sinkhole in the yard. Why didn't I blow up it? I have to admit, that would have been awesome, but being so close to my house maybe not the best idea. I know it can be done safely, but I have zero experience with that. Why didn't I burn it? I've done that before. I wanted to try digging it. I knew it would be a challenge but I thought I could manage.
