I hadn't seen that. It sure won't compete with the combine demolition derby at the county fair, but some folks might pay to watch.

You can pretty much bet if they paid for those machines, they wouldn't be doing that to them. Drop a wheel into a rut, or a bump at just a hair too much speed and you roll it, which isn't going to be cheap to fix.
I used to do stupid things like that out in the sand dunes here, but not with my vehicle I used to go back and forth to work with. I purchased a Honday Odyssey (sand go-kart) and played with it. If I tore it up, I loaded it in the back of the truck and didn't play till I fixed it.
The Odyssey would roll over sideways and land back on it's wheels (sometimes) and never miss a beat. Going end over end usually took a little out of you, but shake it off and take off again. I was radared by the local police at 83mph across the sand dunes here, but you really didn't want to go that fast for long. It really only went about 40 in stock configuration.

I think they are on ice. Notice when the wheels lock up, the tractors slide, but no soil builds up in front of the tires? That powdery looking stuff looks like a light coating of snow.
