First time wife was backing tractor out of her new horse barn she started to turn and did not account for the front bucket. Thankfully she saw the look of horror on my face and only scratched the barn. A quick spray of black krylon and you can hardly tell.

I am just thankful SHE was the first one to hit the barn, not me :)

Let's see.

2 Years of tractor ownership.

Managed to break a grapple

Clip my pole barn door, 2 days after construction

Rip off a wheel. Studs still in the hub.

Pushed with a back blade instead of pulling and destroyed one side of my 3 pt setup

Pushed with my carry all on my brand new tractor and bent the lifted arm like a pretzel (2 days old)

Ripped out half the wiring harness on the bottom.

Drained half the HST fluid while doing a filter change.

I am sure there are others.

Today I added to the list, twice.

Tore a hydraulic fitting on a demo excavator. I have ordered the same machine, so technically, I damaged a machine I don't yet own.

Realizing the excavator was down, I went with the Mahindra and grapple to continue work. Managed to rip off a rear valve stem, depositing beet juice all over the ground and ending my day.

ford 333c TLB, been running dirt back and forth on property 1 mile at at time. towards end of day, i needed to find another spot to grab dirt. so i would not cause additonal issues. found a spot near front lake. grab a few buckets, figure i would make another couple more trips before calling it a day. ended up driving right on over a 8" diameter tree. never felt a thing. till i looked behind me. sun just right in the sky, that no sun glasses, blinds could block. i just kept pedal to the metal. and kept on going. and the tree was in wide open area. i could do figures 8's with backhoe fully extend out, and a boom pull on FEL all the way around tree and never hit a thing. but some how managed to run right over the tree.

slightly tapped sofit of house with backhoe while digging trench. looking at bucket making sure not hitting house *arghs*

pulling bass boat out of lake. going nice and slow, then BAM, tore front off of base boat. just the framed piece on the point were ya tie ropes and fishing baskets to. but still.

mowing area that i normally do not mow, and did not walk the area before hand. ended up in a nice wet spot, sunk up to belly, and belly mower lost in the mud. 200 foot cable later to pull that tractor out.

snagged a few tree limbs with backhoe. (the trees limbs were not suppose to be there)

16 days after my 16th birthday, i got 16 stitches. pleads the 5th on this one.
