1. I once had an "H" and also a "K". Plus a 977 L. Best loaders ever made.
2. A 50,000 lb excavator would flop that tree over in one minute. If the excavator had a thumb it could pick it up and carry the tree to an out of the way place to saw it up. At a local auction there is an old 983 track loader. that someone attrmpts to sell every year. It is too big and inefficient.
3. I can almost bet he's a rich slum lord...
4. wheres the mufler
5. Great job, you an tell it's not his first, minimal waste of time, especially with a smaller CAT. I love all the arm chair experts, you should use a chainsaw, or a 70,000 excavator. Yeah just pull one of those out of your pocket and the 150,000 that would cost. No, good job with what you have
6. He wont see 82 if that tree lands on him
7. These older cats like 955 and 977 simple and strong bit slow compared to rear engine 963 hydrostatic. 977 is very strong and I could push trees over that size most of the time. 955 nice since it doesn't weight as much as 977 which needs a low boy plus a semi to move . Nice rig good job. Slick mud reduces push but doesn't burn up pins bushings like sugar sand does here. 
8. Thanks for the upload video "Clearing Land" I learned a lot.
9. Need to cut roots around the tree first with bucket, then push it over. real quick to do
10. Easy to tell the city slickers by some of the comments....
11. when I was yong I see all time
    it's very well in year 1990
12. why not cut the tree down, then deal with the stump?
13. Harte Arbeit, gute Arbeit!
14. I've learned to get a bucket full of dirt when I push high up against a tree. The weight makes a big difference.
15. how much was this job $?
