I've been bombarded with inquiries... I wonder what he's smoking, if his brains are loose, if any of his mother's children survived, if he's wearing a seat belt, did he go to school to learn how to do this, has he ever flipped it, what he's yelling, is he yelling the same thing every time he yells, who he's yelling at, is this his chosen profession or is he the homeowner?

I drive the exact tractor for my profession as a power company contractor; the contrast between standard tractor tires and forestry tires is astounding. The only difference is that my tractor is enclosed in a forestry cage.

We farmed the same plot of land for 30 years, discovered all the holes and springs the first year, and got stranded twice. We left such locations alone (did not till) till the next guy came in with big ass tractors and got stuck multiple times a year for the next ten years. When they went bankrupt, the owner demanded that we return. We refused since the ground was ruined and the sink holes had gotten worse.

When I see close-up footage of farming tractors tugging each other with CABLES, I cringe. I once witnessed something similar to this, and the cable snapped, causing him to bend the metal on the cabin of the rear tractor and smash the window to bits. Consider a single cable snapping and striking the guy with the camera. Needless to say, if he's lucky, he'll be in the hospital for a long time, or maybe 2m under if he's not.

It's always fascinating to see so much iron in one place.
Two of them, unfortunately for the farmer, were dozers and excavators.
Even in difficult times, I am continually astonished by the resilience and spirit of American farmers.
