Farmall A tractors can allow that to happen if the seat spring breaks. Had it happen on ours. Spring must have just been fatigued, it broke, once it loses that support on the one side, it can allow the pan seat to bend or come unhooked on the other leaf, dumping you out of it.
Dad always told me of the story of when he was disking with his handstart John Deere B a long time ago, 70's maybe? Came up on the slope to the road, sort of like a ditch bank where he would turn around, and the bolt or something at the bottom of the channel frame JD used on their seats broke off, dumping him off it. He said luckily he had slowed down to turn around, and he fell on the hitch of the disk, but he was able to struggle around and get up from the hitch and jerk the clutch out. He said once he got it stopped it was halfway across the road headed for the big ditch that runs to the river behind the field. I can guess whether you had a plow, cultivators, or disk run over you, it probably wouldn't end up so well. Oh yeah, dad's a little guy, not heavy.
