It happened a few years ago. We have a big bank barn with a good size barn yard. There were (are) blocks about 2"x2"x4" along the barn yard that make up the one wall. The blocks are two high(4" total height) and stockers love jumping these when your chasing them into a pen. We had some old silage wagons that we havn"t used in years and decided to put these at the top of the wall so the calves couldn"t jump.

Nobody got hurt but he must of been pretty shaken up.If the loader wouldn"t have been up so high we might have been able to save it by dropping the loader and holding the tractor stable. The stupid thing was that we got a loaner tractor while the tractor was getting the rear wheel fixed (bent disc)and the first thing he did was finish backing up the wagons.
