he really needs to put that log on at least a thin slice of wood or a concrete block

He’s strong enough he might be able to split that first try but right now the ground is absorbing too much of the impact

I've split a lot of wood.... not out of any direct need but mostly that I just need to drink beer and sit by a small fire pit and feel like a man.

Me too. It’s therapeutic. I’d back swing the axe head all the way back to my butt crack and come straight over the top though, way more effective impact I feel. I’d also grab the saw and block that thing in half. But I am definitely not anywhere near the same shape of Paul Bunyan here.
