I get nervous getting off the tractor when the brush hog hasn’t finished spinning down, let alone with the thing running! This is one reason why.

He must not have been on an orange tractor lol,can’t even lean over to grab a beer from the ice chest on the fender without the safety switch killing the tractor let alone get off it with the pto engaged

I had a situation not as extreme as this tho,was using an air hammer at work,the chisel bit exploded (wasn’t a cheap one,was a snap on bit and air hammer),I got hit with pieces,thought I was good tho,had a little pain in my chest but didn’t think much of it,finished the job and about an hour later the pain was getting worse and chest started swelling up,ended up driving to the er,they did X-ray and tried to remove the pieces in the er,they eventually took me back,put me out and cut me open to remove all the pieces from my rib cage
