So the force of the bar increases logarithmically?

It's applying the same force to lift/drag the log the entire time

What you're seeing is the log raising, and the drag/friction from the ground and gravity being overcome causing it to appear much faster. Look at how the log hits the bed of the truck before speeding up. That removes much of the force needed to "lift" the log, and it slides in easily after that point
