As if anyone who has lived on a farm does not know how dangerous it can be. Here is a reminder. Dad had the header off of a pull type chopper. Some stuff was clogged and not going into the feeder rollers if I heard the story correct. Machine running dad pushed it with his left foot, left foot got pulled in. The machine basically de-boned his left foot and at that point he was able to pull himself from the machine. This machine could have taken even more than his foot. Thank god that did not happen. Dads in the hospital and recovering. He has had 2 surgeries so far and will probably get a prosthetic. He is 74 and rather tough. But something like this would be very hard for anyone at any age. Remind yourself, your family how dangerous a farm can be when you make a mistake or bad judgement as any one of us can do. For privacy, I will not post where this happened.
