Just how exactly did this tiny little kiwi manage to get all those trees hammered down onto this cliff?
- With nails.
Don't get me wrong, the video makes me bawl every time I see it, but... if the kiwi has the ingenuity, determination, and resources to nail something like a thousand trees to the side of a cliff (to be clear, he'd have to find the trees, cut them down, transport them, hoist them up to the side of the cliff, and then nail them in), why can't he work up some kind of hang glider or hot air balloon or artificial wings? Simpler, cheaper, and less chance of messy death, Kiwi!
- He wouldn't be truly flying if he did that. I mean, would you choose to use artificial legs if your dream was to walk, no matter the cost?
  - He wasn't truly flying with what he chose to do either. The proposed solutions would actually be closer. The only answer to the original question I can come up with is that all of those were more complicated and therefore outside his ability; if not to do, at least to think of. From a technological standpoint, the solution he chose was probably the simplest in theory, even if in practice it took way more effort.
