[QUOTE="Raido Free America, post: 3852460, member: 45328"] There are many, many ways to get hurt on a tractor! I've used one most of my life, but wouild have never thought of what almost happened to me! Years ago I bought some bundles of slabs for kindling, from a saw mill. These things are just random lengths, and are bundled with a couple of metal straps to hold them togather. I was unloading one of these bundles, some of these slabs were 12/14 feet wide, and I had it chained to a loader bucket. The ends were bouncing around, as I hauled them to an area to be cut up into kindling. One extra long slab, that had a thin place on it, broke off, the end stuck into the ground, and the other end fell right towards my chest!!!! I managed to take my arm, and knock it aside a split second before it would have impeled my chest, before I could stop the tractor! When I got stopped, this slab that was kinds sharp pointed was 3 or 4 feet behind me under my right arm! Needless to say I had go go to the house and change my pants, and underwear! Of all the things that could happen, I would have never thought of this! [/QUOTE]
