[AT] From AP Man cuts off his arm to free it from a antiquecornpicker.

Michael,
http://www.redpowermagazine.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=33212

As you can see, most of the posters were not too sympathetic towards the
guy---it's a tragedy of the worst kind (young man killed, leaves a small
child behind) but it would have easily been prevented with good
judgement.

As mentioned in the thread, I can't help but wonder if the guy's family
will try to sue the farmer--for what the electrocuted man did wrong!

Micheal,

WOW!

This story has been discussed over on the Red Power Magazine forum.  The
general consensus was that it was indeed tragic, but the dude stealing
the tractors must've had some issues......

Since we are on 'tractor accidents'...

y=10

this WAS my buddy's tractor... Not sure why he left the key in it.  The
other tractor mentioned is his Farmall 1466, which is  known for jamming
between gears.  Probably better that it did too, as the burned one was
only
2 years old, and has been replaced already via insurance.

This has been happening since the invention of mechanical corn pickers. 
  I would never expect this to happen this day and age.  What a shame. 
Glad he is alive.
