He would probably realize that trying to knock over a tree near other trees is (a) probably going to result in injury to the human working and (b) certainly going to result in injury to the tree roots of near by trees. That cluster of trees is probably keeping that side of the “ravine” from collapsing during a heavy rain. Damaging the root cluster is a bad idea, unless they want the soil under the sidewalk to erode. If the errant tree is some kind of hazard to residents or passerby, then they should have had a professional cut it.
