How high is the water mama?

Whenever I hear Johnny Cash I think Ring of Fire.

Ditto on the "Hope he wasn't wearing a seatbelt" thought.

I don't like Johnny Cash because his music promotes violence.

Whenever I hear Johnny Cash, I want to kill...Johnny Cash.

What you said doesn't make any sense. Is that what you think, or is that something Johnny cash said?

Maybe he's still on the tractor...

(BTW, I didn't understand your comment about Johnny Cash either)

Is that why they paint them green, so they blend in with the frogs?

The worst part of his day is going to be getting that back out because he either has to drag it out on it's side, up right it where it sits, or wait for the water to go down (assuming it's not a pond that can't easily be drained).

5 ft high and rising said Johnny Cash.

This was a very bad day for the owner of this tractor.

Notice that the FEL is raised way up. Bit of a safety lesson here apparently.
So, if the guy rolled/slid down the bank cuz he tipped over sideways, having the seat belt on, if so, would likely have been a lifesaver.

Lots of unknowns here. Being belted in and getting off a tractor underwater would at least be a whole bunch easier than trying to exit a helicopter, small plane or even a car. Things to think about and at least mentally practice if possibilities in one's world.

Interesting picture here JJ, but have you got any of the gories? The details?

Oh, sorry about getting OT, I like most Johny Cash stuff..... ;' >

I can tell you about getting out of things underwater. During my Navy training for aircrewman, we had to exit a plane cockpit fully outfitted with boots, helmet, life vest, that slide down a rail and turned upside down underwater.. The first time, I was real scared, then after doing it a few times, you simply held your breath and watched which way the bubbles were going, and you went out that way. Worse than that is the helicopter dunker that turned upside down underwater, with about 8 people inside. Everybody was kicking everybody trying to get out. Although for 20 years, I never was involved in a real crash, but some of my friends were. None of them lived.

Yep, the Dilbert Dnker...

I wasn't aircrew (eyesight wasn't good enough), but I remember that.
