That's sad, seem to be happening a lot lately.I was always taught to respect machinery and you are never its master.It will bite you when you least expect it and usually does. All it takes is one split second of error on someones part to turn into a big disaster.As a kid growing up i have known quite a few that have died as a result of being in a hurry and not thinking.Or being in the wrong place at the wrong time.A neighbor of ours was a heavy equipment operator and owned a small farm near us.What he was thinking the day he died we will never know.He had a Ford tractor with a front end loader on it and was going across a rather steep hill with bucket raised.For what ever reason the tractor tipped over and rolled 7 or more times before stopping .When it rolled it threw him off and crushed him during on of those rolls.Everyone was shocked that someone who worked with machinery all there lives would come to such a tragic end. Everyone needs to stop and think no matter how many times they have done something to make sure they are doing everything they can to be safe.I'm tired of hearing about people dieing this way its so senseless!
