My uncle, now in his late 70s, used to work as a contractors driver. While loading a muck spreader with a PTO driven towed backhoe, he stepped over the drawbar with the PTO shaft over it, and got caught up with his coveralls. Lucky for him the International was at another job this day, and he had to make do with the Ferguson TO-20 that day. The engine stalled, after pushing his boots 20 to 30cm into the muck at the yard, just before his marital tools came in contact with the PTO shaft. If the IH diesel had been powering the backhoe that day, he'd probably not be a grandfather nowadays.
