A neighbor was an orthopedic surgeon who did scheduled knee and hip replacements, but he also pulled on-call emergency duty. He said the worst cases he ever operated on were farmers pulled into farm machinery. Often there wasn’t enough left to attach.

We had a forklift accident last winter. Poor kid got his foot almost cut off. They saved the foot, last I heard. Thankfully, I was not there... but they did make all operators watch the video multiple times.

Worst thing that can happen, harming an innocent through accident. From my observation, both parties equally contributed to the incident. Lack of awareness, and comfort with a 6,000 pound moving machine.

Godspeed
