One chainsaw too short (conclusion to the oak tree)

That would be my father’s chainsaw, which is too short to saw the very large oak branch that has fallen in our backyard. Get the saw too close to the nose, it will kickback into you, says my father, who investigated the resulting log at my request.
The log is also too heavy to move as a single entity, which means that it cannot be propped up to avoid the risk of running the chainsaw into the ground.
Said log is currently rotting into the ground, and an open question may be raised whether I can handsaw it fast enough to get any useful wood.
Perhaps I should have gone for the jackhammer after all.

I hope you are able to cut the log of the oak tree down later.
