In the video, a man is seen standing on the ground, holding onto a rope that is tied around a tree. He is wearing a harness and appears to be preparing to climb the tree. The man is looking up towards the tree, possibly assessing the best way to climb it. The tree is tall and has a thick trunk, suggesting that it may be quite challenging to climb. The man's harness is securely fastened, and he seems to be taking the necessary precautions before attempting to climb. The background of the video shows a clear sky and a few buildings, indicating that the location is likely in an urban or suburban area.
