So I found this cactus a few years ago abandoned in the woods (Central Europe) and I’ve wondered since who he is, especially because he lowered his arms some month ago and build roots so I put another pot underneath it…

I don't know a lot about cacti, but my first guess is some sort of prickly pear. Doing some more research now though, will post an update if I can find anything definitive.

I don't think it's Opuntia because it's not segmented in the main trunk. Most likely Consolea rubescens

Hah, I like the common name: Road Kill Cactus! Looks like you know what you're talking about.
