That freaked me out watching your vid. All appendages stay with the confines of the machine. considering how news seems to travel on the forum, I figured someone would have told the story of someone losing an arm by now.

Oh.. when I see that arm come out on a flop it turns my stomach! Watched Futz do it on his first flop as well. Both my flops have been to the passenger side, I have no doubt when I flop to the driver side I will have the same natural reaction to catch myself.

Yeah, I knew that was stupid as soon as I did it.

We went down a hill with some deep ruts on an easy half day. I stopped and buckled my net before I started to straddle them. Looked at Mr Sixteen+4 and said I know better than to put my hand out if we flop this thing but I’m still going to try to prevent my own stupidity. So, I’m telling you to remember to keep your hands holding that harness and you’ll be much safer should this not go to plan.

It's a natural reaction (as stated), hence difficult to overcome. I try to remind myself (and my passenger) of it when attempting something tough.

Bad idea on my part re the door. Glad it didn't tear it off.

That's why they sell spare parts

Yep… he has access to several shades of purple. So a plan is formulating.

Starting on Round 2 of videos.. but first I have to work some. More to come later.

Here is a very short video of @lee falling in the second set of ruts and being wenched.
