I watched a few minutes of Mr. Beast. He'd never have made it in the Hoedads.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hoedad...on_Cooperative
Quote:
The Hoedads Reforestation Cooperative (formally, Hoedads Cooperative Inc.) was a worker-owned tree planting and forestry labor cooperative based in Eugene, Oregon, United States. It was active throughout the American West from 1971 to 1994. For several years they were country's largest worker-owned cooperative.[citation needed] They were noted for their success in applying the cooperative model successfully to treeplanting. They were also known for their experimentation with and early embrace of concepts such as environmentalism, feminism and alternative economics.

The Hoedads took their name from their use of the "hoedad" (or "hoedag"), a hand implement similar to a hoe used to plant bare-root trees on steep slopes.
A time that passed due to lack of clear-cutting and immigrant labor. Now, today...


edit:
However, these guys put a lot more effort into one tree than Mr. Beast.



Anton Petrov is on board:
