Heres a story to think about.Trust me its true.My uncle was a farmer in north central PA.Hes passed now but when he was about 60-65 he was running some kind of implement out in the field and for whatever reason he was off the tractor with PTO running and stepped over the PTO and it caught his shirttail.pulled him down on it and then kicked him off 15 or so ft.Now during this wild ride he took both his testicles were torn off.Now every time I think about this scene if it would of been me all I can think of is me going into shock and laying there bleeding to death.But not this tough old boy,he gets up, finds his missin parts,wraps em in his hanky,drives the tractor back to the house,TAKES A SHOWER,and then drives himself to the hospital.CAN YOU IMAGINE!!!!!!Now it seems to me that most tractor accidents that I read about are always with a guy thats been doing it his whole life.I just been messing with these machines a few years and man ya gotta keep your head on straight every second.
