I know everyone was joking below. But I do that very thing happened here. The family had several other business and also owned several hundred acres.

The tractor driver ended up under the tractor, 2 of the guys on the wagon got under it & the third didn't quit running till he was in the barn.They hooked the baled on the pick up & took it to a JD dealer & said fix it. Now the farm owner got a repair bill on a 350.00 14T that cost 4750 to fix
