The Safety Police just fainted

Almost like the red tractor wanted to make double sure that he won with no excuse from the looser, a good story he can tell his grand kids like, We'll kids, back in the day I hauled my load mouth's neighbor tractor right over backwards...................

Yeah, and darn near "crushed the opposition" too!:shocked:

We'll that was 5 min. of fun, now I work my tractor to limits a lot, but no way would I do that, I'd rather play tug of war with a log. But if people want to abuse their tractor like that and put it on video, I'll watch it, although rescuing that broken tractor might be more interesting to watch.

He's a local guy and has a site "One lonely farmer". I think the repair is on his site. He probably makes as much money off sponsors of his videos as he does actually farming.

Do you know if he found an axle for that old "Ollie"?

His videos are interesting as is he . That guy will tear into anything in a very cold , dark , cluttered shop from **** ! The results are always good and he knows what he is doing .

I suppose if one has plenty of money, you have to look for stuff to do even if it require's braking something, and sooner or later, tug of war will do it. To me tug of war and taking one of those 5000 lb. munster pickup trucks and trying to jump drive and fly through the air over cars is about the same thing, then it comes down, a ten ft.tire goes one way and the truck goes the over. But one of my heroes once said, "if it ain't broke, your not trying"..........

I would say the red tractor won.

Dear goodness that was hard to watch! +1 for Mahindra. Wow.

I cringe watching this one as well. What if you slipped just a tiny bit when moving the log towards it?

Wow. Not interested, thank you very much.

Wow. Not interested, thank you very much.

I concur, because even with a safety shield/shroud covering the whole wheel except for a small window for splitting, anything could cause an inadvertent slip putting a body part I'm fond of into harm's way.

That said, that is a pretty cool flywheel, and I wish I could come up with something I need one for...
