The exact recording behind this clip is uncredited, like many chainsaw sounds passed around user-run soundboards and free effect libraries. Tree-felling audio has been a staple of slapstick and prank videos for years because the rising engine and sudden crash read instantly, even with no picture. Lumberjack memes, camping vlogs and gaming edits all lean on it as shorthand for chopping something down. Its short runtime keeps it handy for quick cuts, which is why versions of the same felling sequence keep resurfacing across meme pages.
