Seriously??? What if that went into the crowd rather than the field??
Did Darwin write about 'evolution by tractor'??? I know it's not a lot different than freestyle moto-X, or monster trucks, but still???

He would have had to turn the steering wheel to the left, toward the crowd to keep from turning over. He should have gone up the ramp with his left side tires.

I am not sure what went wrong. I could see what was going to happen immediately. If they expected a different result, they didn't think it through.

I just don't get why people try to do this sort of stuff.

It looks like he was trying to do a tractor demonstration of riding on 2 wheels but was unable to balance it. This is one of those stunts that is done often as is jumps by motorcycles, Bigfootin', demolition derbies and all the other crazy things that we are willing to pay admission to watch.

Oh yes, I get that.
It's just amazing the silly stuff people come up with. Myself included I must admit.

Joie Chitwood in a tractor? On second thought, couldn't have been; Joie would have made it without turning over.

I think he was trying that too. Probably his hydrostatic power steering exceeded relief pressure when he tried to turn that front wheel into the groundIt looks like he was trying to do a tractor demonstration of riding on 2 wheels but was unable to balance it.

. A gotcha alright.
