Partner and I were running through the woods by the Lea on Hackney Marshes yesterday when we heard an almighty cracking, and an enormous solid tree crashed down across the path about 4m in front of us. There was a couple and baby who were incredibly close too. It was bloody terrifying. We all just stood there shouting oh my god before thinking that we should probably get out of the woods pronto.
It was such a strong, solid and rooted tree – snapped clean in half by the wind. Wild. Stay safe out there, folks!
