Climbing coconut trees is a time honored skill in the tropics. It is the only way to get young coconuts which are highly nutritious and provide valuable liquids. In a survival situation, knowing how to climb trees could save your life!
The obvious reason to practice on a 10-15 foot tree first is that it is not a long way to the ground if/when you fall. Have fun!

First, you DO NOT carry sharp objects up a tree. If you fall you will not be able to control the sharp object and you could kill yourself. Instead, tie a rope to the knife or axe and the other end of the rope to your wrist. Climb the tree. When you are safely situated at the top, use the rope to pull the knife/axe up to you.
Don't climb down with sharp objects either. Lower the object with the rope before descending yourself.
