Kevin seems to Always be s Calm and Cool and Im sure it’s Not just on Video. I bet you need to occasionally take Kevin’s Pulse to make sure he’s still Breathing. 😬
Farming and Crab Fishing can be two (2) of the Most Dangerous Occupations. Generally Speaking, there are NO Second Chances. Your Family Lives Safety. 👍🙏
Farming is one of the most dangerous occupations. You can thank the lord if you can look at your hands and count to ten. Always say a prayer before the day begins. Stay safe and be alert.
Scary moments, glad no one was hurt. Accidents on the farm can happen so fast it’s unbelievable, it can be anything. God Bless your family and stay safe.
First time I can remember Kevin not smiling through a disaster. That had its scary moments and yeah Ronda chains can break and be dangerous.. God was with you all in getting the tractor out.
When I was a kid on farm by Newaygo. My Dad was pulling me backwards to start a 620 JD tractor, I put the clutch in to early stopped the pickup and didn’t start the tractor. So my Dad backed up the pickup to give a tug to start rolling. The chain snapped come back and wrapped around the right axle next to me. We went and bought batteries for the tractor.
Hello from Southeastern Wisconsin. It was looking a little sketchy there for a moment with the tractor teetering on only two wheels. I was also freaking out with Kevin standing so close to the tightly torqued chain. Glad to see the situation was safely rectified without damage or injuries. Have a safe and productive work week!
Glad you got the tractor out without too much trouble. I would say it was just an oops. Ethan's pride might be the only thing hurt. Hope the yield is as good as you has hoped. Hello from Springfield Missouri.
I used to work with a farm contractor and have seen that type of thing happen a few times over the years and as long as there’s a person that has sense to know where to hook the chain it usually ends ok
Another great vid! Lesson to be learned! Also run that chain thru a tire,helps to prevent whip lash from a snapped chain or cable. Learned from my past experiences.
I remember many years ago about 55, one of my classmates brother was packing silage and they found him under the tractor. He didn't survive.That was before roll bars. Alway be careful packing.
We shelled our high moisture and followed with a pull type harvester with a direct cut head to harvest the stalks for heifer feed. It made acceptable feed, but it stretches manpower pretty hard.
I know that was scary 😦 . Anytime you have that a Tractor that gets that squirrelly you can get hurt. I am glad the young man is safe and tractor and driver weren’t hurt 😢..
Been there, next time hook the chain to the right upper 3 point pivot. that way it prevents tractor from going over & also gives a rearward force vector
I thought hard about the tipping tractor because my grandpa was killed in the 60's when he rolled a John Deere on a hillside in the front yard. Very good job and a super video thank you for sharing 🙏🙏
Glad everything worked out and nobody got hurt and no equipment damaged. Things like that can happen no matter how careful you are. Keeping calm was the best thing no matter how bad you wanted to chew some butt.
Have you been able to find sawdust for bedding this year or will you go another route? Happy to see no one was hurt. May God's blessings continue to shine on your family and farm.
Yeah, done that before, with a bulldozer, luckily just slid to the bottom, ain't no fun,thank God you got it out with no real problem, thanks for sharing this Rhonda, Kevin and your family
I am glad everything worked out well for you all. I have been it a situation that was similar. It can be scary. The best thing is no one got hurt and nothing was damaged.
Man he lucky he didn't get hurt you need to pour some strong concrete walls my cousin pack with a huge stieger all day wall to wall there feed always smells and looks so fresh
That was a scary moment for sure, I'm so glad nothing nor no one got hurt. I felt your anxiousness when Ethan was on the tractor with the wheel in the air. My son was on a small Massey and the brakes didn't work going down a hill. He turned the wheels to go sideways and the tractor's rear tire came off the ground about a foot. After that the brakes got replaced, which I told my wife that would never happen again. Whew, glad it turned out okay! I hope your day is good and you all have a good week.
nobody got hurt main thing aw the one on mackensie,s engagement the other day on my tv cant comment on it but congratulations to them you all raised a wonderful daughter
This could have ended very tragically. Praise the Lord it did not. Please stress caution and wisdom when doing such work to everyone. No one can be replaced. But they sure can be missed.
So scary watching it. Was praying for Kevin when he was standing so near that chain. My little Brothers Father-in-Law was killed while doing that trying to get a stuck dozer free. He hooked the chain and when pressure was put on the chain it snapped with part of it flying back and hitting him in the head. Give him a big hug and kiss and tell him your subscribers said to never scare us like that again. 😱🫣
First God bless your Daughters wedding announcement. Thanks for the info on the Earlage not need here but some might need the info. As for the accident I was yelling at my TV scream direction so they would hear me over the equipment. You can imagine the laugh I had once I realized what I was doing but hey I have been right there to many times figuring something out. God bless you all this was a really good video. 🙂
My cousin's classmate from Bible School was killed in a summer accident while cutting grass along the highway in southern Alberta. (1961) The classmate was driving a tractor for the Department of Highways. In those days, roll cages were not mandatory. He drove over a culvert hidden by the tall grass. The tractor rolled and he went straight to Heaven. Ethan is blessed in that the accident could have been much worse. Kevin was concerned as well as he came over to see. Give them all a hug.
.... a bit of excitement to change up the day is always good as long as no-one gets hurt .... hazard to guess the bottom at the edge did not have a high compaction so when going to the edge later on it compressed and the weight of the tractor pushed the bales over .... again just the first thought that went through the grey matter .. heads up, not an engineer or even a farmer, so no first hand experience .... thx for the share ,, as always .. never stop dreaming, just dream bigger .. have fun be safe, save our oceans .....
The good old days pick the corn leave the stalks and plow them under either when fall plowing or in the spring. Let it compost and mixed with manure from the barn you can't ask for better fertilizer. Maybe add some lime to neutralize the acid for the ph
Ide like to tell uall from southeast Ohio. Congratulation on youalls bay engagement. I directional drilled as well in 90's. He seem as be very well manored young man. And she will never let him starv She knows food n farming. N thats rarely about these day. !! Awsome. Im still waiting on daughter.. she picky. But smart❤😊😊
nice & high protein energy corn earlage harvesting & chopping # the chopper does remove the leaves & chop corn grains & the core to which grains r attached which has no nutritional value as it has high indigestible fiber # ❤️ 👍 🇵🇰
Serious though please run your chain to several of your tires you have there at least one of your commenters mentioned that it will prevent Whiplash from the broken chain should that happen. It really works just put the tires towards the ends. Good luck God bless.
Pins & needles! What a great escape! So glad it all worked out. Thx for sharing. Would have been easy for you to not share that content. Your channel is the real deal.
