My granduncle lost a finger when is gloved hand got caught in a combine. Some people never realize that a spinning shaft on a PTO (Power take off) is deadly to shirt or coat sleeve.

I remember a man who had one of his kids riding on a tractor while he was brush hogging. He hit a bump or rock and the kid fell off right in front of the spinning blades. The child never had a chance. We used to learn tractor safety in agriculture classes in High School. Unfortunately those classes are no longer taught.
