Canadian loggers are now using log-lifting balloons which can lift giants up to three tons, drag eight-tonners out of thick forest. It'll save men and immature trees from injury, and much road-building costs. Establishing shot - In the forest standing and looking up through the tall trees up into the sky. MS - A tree falls in the forest. Rear shot - Back of a lumberjack and he's looking up at little helium blimp (balloon). High Angle shot - Two lumberjacks tying a log to ropes that are hanging from the little blimp. Ground to air - The blimp raises up into the sky and so does the log that's tied on to the ropes. MS - Large logs that were once hard to get out of the forest or to move them to another area are moved with ease with the help of the little blimp or "Log Lifting Balloon"
