A person or thing that falls; specifically, a worker who cuts down trees.
From the verb 'fall' plus the agent noun suffix '-er' (one who does). The most common usage refers to loggers or lumberjacks who fell trees for timber.
A professional 'faller' in logging is one of the most dangerous and skilled jobs ever—they read trees like surgeons read bodies, knowing exactly how they'll fall to avoid crushing equipment or coworkers, which is why experienced fallers were historically paid extraordinarily well.
