[QUOTE="cow pollinater, post: 1043282, member: 14661"] Glad you're okay. ;-) EVERYONE makes mistakes sooner or later. The lucky ones get to tell us all to be careful and they tend to not make that same particular mistake again. :lol: I lost two fingers to a tractor and can honestly say that by my recollection of what happened I was being pretty careful on the day that it happened. I doubt I'd do anything differently if I was on the same piece of equipment today. Accidents happen. I also know a guy who jumped off of a tractor with a scraper behind it to open a gate that was downhill from him. He left the scraper up, the tractor out of gear, and no parking brake... It met him about half-way to the gate and he lost consciousness when the top of the gate met with the underside of his chin. He had tire tracks over his shirt from both the front and back of the tractor and the scraper just kind of leveled of a few small spots that were sticking up. Once the tractor busted the gate open the jersey bull had free rein to come out and toss him around a little and did so. For once... the courts ruled that he was an idiot and it was his own fault that he got hurt. [/QUOTE]
