And then somehow the tractor spit him off once around the corner? Good grief, the poor guy can't catch a break. He did run the stop sign, wonder if bad brakes or clutch problems (in addition to his hitch problems)? The arse clowns filming the whole thing were sure enjoying his misfortune.

Well, at least he could walk away. Could be a whole lot worse.

I don't think the tractor threw him off. It looks like he stopped around the corner when he noticed he wasn't towing anymore, got off in a hurry and ran after the load and had a major trip and fall while he was running.

Must be an advanced tractor. It backed up to the trailer so it could be rehitched, without the operator!

Now that's pure bad luck.

Bad luck yes, but there's a healthy dose of stupid involved as well.

After he ran the stop sign I started discounting luck, heavily.
When his trailer self detached, my operator error meter spiked.
When his tractor almost rolled over him, the stupid-o-meter went into the red.

The first motorcycle did not stop either. Just slowed and went.

Wasn't a lucky day for the owner of the automobile either!
I guess the tractor "missed" his old buddy the trailer, and went back to find him:laughing:
It would have been interesting to see what exactly happened around that corner.! I guess it was just uphill, surely he did not put the tractor in reverse and bail off to go chase the trailer.. Like what was he going to do if he caught it.

I was waiting to see the bikers come pouring out of the (bar?) like mad hornets out of a nest.
