Steps to Climb the Coconut Tree
- Find three strong sticks that can be bent without breaking.
- Bend the sticks together around the coconut tree and your waist to meet the ends.
- Use a piece of cloth to wrap the right and left sides of the sticks where you will hold them to climb.
- Use a solid rope to tie the ends and the other parts of the stick properly. A stronger rope ensures your safety while climbing the coconut tree.
- While the tied sticks are around your waist and the coconut tree and you are a bit above the ground, move your left leg up.
- Now exert a bit of pressure on the tree and move up the tied sticks around the tree to enable you to climb.
- Repeat the same movement until you get to the fruit.
