I ran across this picture in a power point about people screwing things up. I have gotten stuck before, but I never did anything like this.

How would you get this thing out?

Whew, that John Deere is stuck, that's for sure That field must be a recovered swamp with no bottom. My Super M with a 4 row cultivator got stuck once next to an oil well site when after a big rain it sank in the mud of a filled in sludge pit. The tractor was down in the back to where the mud started running over the rear axle housings. I had to dismount the front cultivator gangs and get them out of the way then was able to "extract" the tractor with a John Deere 4020 that had a strong cherry picker/engine hoist on the 3 point lifting on the front and and my Farmall H pulling on the stuck tractor. We made a mess in that cornfield, but we got it out....

At least Bobby Goodson's boys know enough to PUSH THE CLUTCH before the mud reaches the axles.

Sometimes there's no bottom and there's nothing you can do, but 95% of the time there's no reason for letting a tractor dig that big a hole.

Swamp logger Bobby Goodson gets a machine stuck like that at least once a week.

While an instructor at the Armor school at Ft Know ky had a student stick a tank after he was told not to go there bad enough that I had to step up about 18" to get off of the rear deck on an M60A3.

The picture of that crane working on rubber reminds me of two tards at Oldsmoble! They were using a rt65 Grove with a jib on rubber and there is no chart for a jib on rubber. Said tards had the boom all the way extended with jib over the front and left it that way and went to supper!! You guessed it,Tards forgor to lock the house lock and a wind came up and the boom swung over the side!!!! When they got back from supper there layed the crane on it's side with the boom partually crushing a small brick building!!!!! ! Lockly no one was hurt but the crane was junk!! Bud.

On the railroad a few years ago, they got a trackhoe stuck worse than that. It was down where there was over one foot of mud and water in the cab. They first tried a large wrecker truck, it was near to dry ground, but it had no luck. It took about three days but with the help of another trackhoe that was brough in and itself, they managed to get it out.

Harold H,

You would need an excavator to dig it out.
