EE was cutting trees for powerline. He had been cutting trees all day. He cut one small tree not foreseeing pressure from another tree pushing on the tree he was cutting. The saw kicked back chain brake was working correctly but apparently the angle he was cutting at prevented his arm from hitting the brake.
