You are none to bright are you???
Who puts up a tree and does not tie it off with some sort of fall protection? Hmmm lets see...
8 foot tree... weighing about 40 or more pounds... Having a relitively high center of gravity... Balanced on what a 4 or 5 inch bole... held buy 3 machine screws... in a, perhaps, 2 or 3 foot base... adorned by more weight in trim and lights???
And you think it was somebody or something like a god that tipped it over???
No it was something called gravity that caused it and stupidity that allowed it!
But look on the bright side... Now you can assure yourself that you would have won that tourney instead of what really would have happened! Also it happened while you were there so the house did not burn down. Actually I would say you WERE lucky!
