Junkman takes the ride of his life

[lamarbur]

We had our monthly N.E.TBN lunch meeting today, whre DIY, ANdyMA, Junkman and myself had lunch..After, I agreed to follow Junkman to his home and take care of his brush pile, even though it is raining sometimes heavy off and on. We were rushing to get the job done because we were working between pauses in the rain when something went terribly wrong and the pedal jammed, causing the machine to go out of control, skidding in the mud, and slamming into the ledge. He was slumped over the wheel and I called 911 on his cell phone, He had his digital camera at the ready as he was taking pics of the brush his little BX could move. Luckily the rains held off until the chopper arrived and got Junkman loaded and took off. I have a pic (if it came out) of him leaving for the hospital.. I will be checking in with his wife later to see what is up.

Was he injured in the "crash" or did he maybe have some kind of cardiac event?

Please post with an update as soon as you can. There are lots of folks here like me that consider Junkman a friend and are very concerned for him.

I was just looking at the post that Junkman has on his sticking Hydro peddle . I wonder if this is tied to the accident someway ?
