fuck this guy for adding an extra 30 minutes to my commute this morning. it was fun at first but spd better get this guy down before noon...

 

[riotous]

He picked a good time to fuck up Stewart, actually, since the construction continues to the end of the week so the Stewart exit was already kind of bad. Buses were still rerouting around him, but that was after the traffic.

This morning was ruined by an accident up at Mountlake Terrace turning I5 into 2-lanes for a while; while the blockage was in place there was basically open road south of it but once they cleared the freeway I imagine things got crowded fast.

Yeah Stewart exit was fine; it was the 520 onramp causing the entire backup.

Added 45 minutes to my commute; joyous morning!

 

[ElectricBlanketFire]

This reporter is an absolute delight.

 

[vatstep]

I'm on my lunch break right now and away from my desk. If something happens I will be ripshit.

 

[Dr.Acula]

OMG he's still there!?

 

[mYm|17|]

I walked by the tree last night and man, Seattle PD blocked off so many important streets and diverting traffic.

 

[Walter White Walker]

Of course Phoenix Jones showed up:

Seattle's superhero attempted to coerce the man who refuses to leave a tree in Downtown Seattle with food and beer.

Phoenix Jones tweeted that he could help, but Seattle police said they have the situation under control.

Anyone knows the status on this? Apparently the dude was still up there as of this morning...

[AgentLampshade]

Delsin?

 

[Clydefrog]

Motherfucker

 

[ElectricBlanketFire]

He's clearly not in a good place mentally.

Komo registered Manintree.com and it redirects to their live streaming site. Well played Komo

 

[ProfessorLobo]

The guy is still in the tree? He was up there last night. I thought he'd be rescued by now.

lol rescued

Do it russian style: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V_Nr31Lv6H8&app=desktop

They took out the electrical wires when the tree fell? Then smiled.

 

[superdeluxe]

When this guy got into journalism, I wonder if his big story would be live streaming a guy in a tree.

 

[ElectricBlanketFire]

Something's going to happen when I go to lunch, isn't it?

 

[superdeluxe]

yeah I hope this ends peacefully...but its possible dude loses his footing and dies.

 

[vatstep]

Something's going to happen when I go to lunch, isn't it?

I thought the same and nothing did. I think you'll be alright.

Honestly, I think this guy is gonna stay up there at least another 24 hours. He's not coming down until he absolutely has to.

 

[superdeluxe]

Hippie with a goat! lol

 

[superdeluxe]

Man in Tree bringing out the crazies.

 

[Reverend Funk]

Hes becoming too powerful, he must be stopped.

 

[superdeluxe]

Reporter tried to interview the goat.

 

[Dr.Acula]

How do you feel about goats?

 

[The One Who Knocks]

A man just relaxing in a tree, a guy with a goat which he named Deer, a reporter interviewing a goat, and a man coming to feed the goat an apple. What a world we live in. This has all the makings of a blockbuster film.

 

[superdeluxe]

Oh...angry man...

Guy has a point..this is costing thousands of dollars.

 

[wanderingprostheyltite]

lol hose him down. I'm sure that would totally not result in his death.

Welcome to Seattle

 

[superdeluxe]

Police is clearing the area...might be something happening here.

 

[Jhoan]

This stream has been hilariously entertaining. The hippie with the goat and hilarious commentary has been fun. It's cool to see behind the scenes news stuff as well. I don't think anything like this would ever happen in NYC since the NYPD would have tased the guy for being on top of the Rockefeller Center X-Mas tree which was taken down a couple of weeks ago.

 

[ElectricBlanketFire]

How do you feel about goats?

I literally drove 5 minutes to Wendy's, sitting in the drive-thru, my wife messages, "There is now a man with a goat."

 

[BamfMeat]

My psycho ex is from, and moved back to, Seattle.

I wouldn't be surprised if it was him.

Psycho-ex - is that you?

 

[Hoho for breakfast]

Delsin?

David Blaine

 

[Extra Sauce]

From behind he looked like he was talking to "someone"... schizo?

 

[ElectricBlanketFire]

He just pulled his pants down and put his legs behind his head.

Cirque du Soleil viral marketing

 

[wanderingprostheyltite]

He's climbing down, further than I've seen him go so far anyhow.

 

[backflip10019]

OH SHIT HES CLIMBING DOWN

 

[FireBeaver]

HE'S COMING DOWN!

[Walter White Walker]

Touchdown!

 

[Extra Sauce]

I just lost the feed.

edit: It's back. Still coming down!

edit #2: And he's down.

 

[Struct09]

Odds of him climbing back up after he's done eating?

EDIT: Looks like he's actually going with the police, it may be over

 

[ElectricBlanketFire]

So...he's just hanging out on the ground now...

 

[Hoho for breakfast]

I lost the fucking stream. Are you kidding me? How anticlimactic.

Edit: I have audio now but no video.
Edit 2 : And now a bunch of ads. Fuck off.

 

[Westraid]

Man in Tree is now Man on Ground Eating a Muffin.
Wonder if they can get people sneak up behind him and stand near the tree so he can't get back up again. I'm glad he didn't fall out.

Looked like a sweet potato to me

So this is how you get free food. All you have to do is spend 24 hours at the top of a tall tree. I'll never work another day in my life.
