Balers or anything with a PTO shaft have killed and maimed many. My uncle told me of a guy he knew who lost his dignity and luckily nothing else when a shaft driving a baler caught his overalls and took them and he was left with his underwear.

Same thing happened to my dad. My brother-in-law was able to get on the clutch quick enough as his overalls were pulled PTO. He, too, kept his credentials.
