Pulling 101 -The Wrong Way
This is a short video on a guy trying to pull his stuck pickup out with his tractor. I don't know if he survived or not but a good example of how not to pull. Tim Daley(MI)

That video was on Facebook recently and the narrator said the guy wasn't hurt, but I'm guessing he had to go change his drawers pretty quickly afterwards, ha!

Re: Pulling 101 -The Wrong Way
Yeah, the truck of mine has a Warn 12K winch on the front mounted on dual receivers and matching dual receivers and harness connector on the back. 125' of cable and a snatch block in there somewhere. I have pulled a few things with that truck and have found it slides real nice until I block the wheels with cinder blocks. I tried that flip the tractor game once. Clutch pedal works real good when the front end starts coming up. I wonder if home owners insurance paid for the repairs? Might as well add insult to injury.

Ouch. Wrecked both truck an tractor, and lucky to survive, if they did. Looked like the wheel kept spinning ant the log kicked him under the truck. Not a good day for him.
I follow a very simple rule. If my tractor won't pull it out with just its tires, I go and get a winch and pull to something solid like a tree or a post planted in the ground. Those things happen so fast you have no time to react.
