who else sets tools on your rear tire of the tractor while working on the machine, then you drive off leaving them on the tire to get mashed into the ground?

Ever crawl off of the tractor by unknowingly placing your hand in the dog turd that's mashed into the left rear tire?

hey, good one! ( EEEWWWWWW)
in my pasture it's usually horse/cow stuff.
now for the doggies.. I usually find those while on the rider lawnmower.. I'll be going along and turnmy head just in time to see a nice mound going under the deck... leaving me only nanoseconds to hold my breath

since we are sharing!! i was moving the trailer with the tractor. parked it in front of the garage and not remembering that i had the trailer on i dropped the box blade. i dont usually lock the ball in the yard i only have a slight slope here. oh well back to the story. dropped the blade and start to get off the tractor and hear a sliding noise. the trailer decided to park itself at the bottom of the drive. i sat back down and started chasing it trying to line up the ball on the hitch,kinda like a slow motion cop chase. it got about 50 feet as i caught it the light housing caught the chain link fence and ripped off the light and put a nice snag in the fence to remind me every time i go by to at least put chocks down before i drop the blade...still dont lock the ball tho....
Worst on for me - I was about 15 and helping a cousin on his farm in SW GA as he was harvesting his corn. Pulling two peanut trailers (half full) of corn back to his dryers behind a Allis Chalmers 7060. Clipping along pretty good and decided to take a short cut across a hay field, but didn't know and couldn't see the ditch....
When the front tires fell off in the ditch I bounced off the windshield and was thrown around like a ping pong ball as the tractor Just Kept GOING. By the time I got back in the seat and found the clutch, the second trailer was in the ditch. Said trailers were in a sad state as peanut trailer undercarriages are not meant for such abuse. Matter of fact, the axles folded right back. Big Allis didn't care overmuch, it was still headed for the barn. :shocked:
Spent several days with a grain shovel emptying those trailers into two good ones. Shoveling over the side of a steel box, August, SW GA. YESSIR, it was HOT.
I really felt bad about wrecking two of my cousin's peanut trailers.
Also, without that cab, I would've been toast. Certainly would've been thrown clear and run over.

I don't remember any seatbelts or ROPS on tractors in the 70s. Certainly might've been available, tho.
We didn't wear hearing protection when shooting back then, either.
At least the crickets don't annoy me these days.
