That "equal and opposite re-action" will get you everytime. Best case scenerio is you get a crotch full of steering column. Somewhere after that comes getting pithed with a logging chain. and down towards the worst possibilities is the stylish "farm tractor head dress". A short story about an in-law from a few generations ago. He was pulling on a hill side in the mud. Seems he managed to roll the tractor over backwards onto himself crushing his spine and pinning him to the ground. Unfortunately he was still alive, awake and alone.
