Dodge Charger And Lifted Ram Show Us How Not To Remove A Stranded Vehicle On Florida Beach

Yep, we had a guy that worked for our company get a severe skull injury, become pretty much a vegetable and die years later from a similar accident. He was using shackles and a nylon sling (strap as most people call them) to pull a pipe with a tractor. The pipe got caught on a culvert, the sling stretched like a rubber band and the shackle broke at the pipe end. You guessed it, it shot right into his melon. That video was nerve racking to watch with all those bystanders.
Saskatchewan farmer went to drag a bale out for the cows. Freezing rain a week prior had that bale frozen down hard. He had a chain with a slip hook around the bale. Tried just pulling but not enough traction, so he backed up a bit and took a bit of a run at it. Chain broke. He said he looked for the hook for 15 minutes in the snow. Finally just tied the chain and got the bale moved. Had to cut and remove the bale twine and put the tractor away. -25F out. Came in the house and his wife yelled to get down, someone is shooting. She was cowering behind a chair and the picture window was smashed. He found the hook on the floor behind the couch and a dent in the wall. Wife must have been hiding for a half hour.
