Yeah, I understand that. I had two good sized oaks that were leaning toward my house/garage that I hired a fellow to take down. This guy climbed about 40 or 50' up these trees without being tied on. Once up there, he tied on with a rope when he was cutting, but he had me pretty worried even then since the trees shake quite a bit when a big section is cut, and there wasn't much holding him up there. I have another tree I need to take down that I "THINK" is leaning away from my house, that I plan to do myself, but it has me a bit worried. Last spring, I THOUGHT that I had removed all the trees that were blocking my western most sats, but when the leaves came out, it was worse than last year. I'm hoping that this one last tree might help though.
