My dad and I were working on a newer mower some years ago when I commented on how many caution stickers were all over it, and how the manufacturer must think we are all a bunch of drooling idiots. Dad replied “Son, for every one of those stickers there is at least one person who has done exactly what it’s saying not to do. Think about that.” This guy proves dad was right again! :)
My dad was an insurance adjuster back in the day. He had to pay out 7figures to the guy who is responsible for the warning to not trim your hedges with your lawn mower.
I work in a Dairy department at a grocery store. We have one manufacturer that wrote “No Step” on the top of their case of 1 dozen eggs! 🤦🏼♂️ I wonder how many eggs were broken before they added the “No Step” warning? 😉
The owner of our town Husqvarna shop recommended a traditional riding mower since we have a hilly lawn. He said no turn mowers are unsafe for steep gradient lawns. We appreciated his knowledge and honesty.
You can tell that hillside is the source of great frustration for that man, and he resolved to confront the challenge with significant resources and determination. However, it appears that once again, the hillside has prevailed and will likely continue to do so in the future.
I'm actually a fan of Hillside. We have a proud history as tough competition and nobody just rolls over us willy nilly. Well.... occasionally willy but certainly not nilly.
I retired after 26 years in Fire/EMS, my very first month as a rookie EMT in a small north Georgia county I ran a call similar to this. An older gentleman had decided he needed to disable the safeties on his old school snapper riding mower. It was one of those that the blade wouldn't turn unless you had your foot on the safety pedal, and it had a weight switch on the seat. The gentleman had wired the weight switch in the seat together so he could get off the mower with it still running and had used bailing wire to hold the blade safety pedal down so he could get off the mower to push it up the embankment in front of his house to mow the steep incline. Well this particualr day, he had done so and the morning Dew hadn't quite dried up yet and so when he had the mower, with blades still running, almost to the crest of the hill, his feet slipped on the wet grass out from under him and the mower rolled back down on top of him. We figured the blades finally stopped when they had gotten down about halfway through his skull and began to chop into his shoulders and back. We found a recognizable piece of his left ear about 25 feet from the mower, not to mention most of his occipital brain matter in a gruesome spray pattern out to about 20 feet from the mower deck. The moral of the story is just because you've lived for a long time doesn't mean you can put your common sense on the back shelf.

Damn that’s brutal. My bro in law works the same exact job. Fire/EMS. He has so many gruesome stories man. But I had to tell him to ease up on telling me all of them - especially the ones involving children. Can’t imagine having to see so much death that you become desensitized
First, don't do this. Second, if you are going to do it (like I did) you MUST put all your body weight on the high side of the grade. I used to sit on the side of the seat, leaning uphill. Never tipped the mower. One time the new HOA president scolded me about not having my grass short enough (there were no rules about grass height in the restrictions but he was picky). So he offered to mow my lawn once, for free, to get it shorter so I could more easily maintain it (I mowed it once a week, he said it needs mowed twice a week but I worked 60-70 hours a week and there was no way I was spending all of my free time mowing the yard!) After trying to mow the steep part, he quit, knocked on my door, and looked like he had seen a ghost. He informed me my yard was too steep for a riding mower and he's done. He never bothered me again. lol
Lost a neighbor a few years back in the country, mowing the ditch side and his zero turn slipped down the ditch rolling ontop of him. It was to late to save him when he was found. Always mow straight up and down on inclines with these machines.
I just started working for a landscaping company doing grounds maintenance we use those stand on mowers what's the best way to approach a verge with one of those?
Some of them will not allow you to mownup and down bc at to high of a angle they cut off they also tend to bottom out on your way back off the hill and get stuck with the fram digging into the ground
True story...Friend got 1 of these and he used it when the dealership dropped it off for the 1st time,the guys from the dealership hadn't made it back to the shop before my friend drove it in the pond,he and his wife had to hire divers to get it out 😅😂
He wasn't OK, before he got on the mower. I'm willing to bet, that in the several pages of warnings, that came in the "Before you use", section of the owners manual, that this activity is strongly discouraged if not forbidden. He looks like someone, that couldn't, or wouldn't, read it. Props to him. Most fat slobs would make their wife do it, with a push mower.

Well to be fair that lady did suffer third degree burns on 6% of her body and lesser burns on 16% and ended up in the hospital for 8 Days requiring skin grafting. She tried settling with McDonald's just to pay her medical bills and lost wages and nothing more but they only offered her $100 so she decided to take them to court and won.
That coffee case is actually a little interesting. If you look up the plaintiff, Stella Liebeck, you can read up on it. It seems like McDonald's was knowingly serving their coffee 40-50° hotter than other restaurants. It was even written into their franchise agreement to keep it that hot. And, like stated above, she really just wanted them to pay her medical bills, but they essentially told her to get bent, so off to trial it went and made headlines with a huge settlement.
I'll never forget listening to the cries of a child (couple rooms away) for hours in the surgical wing of a hospital awaiting my first lumbar laminectomy... His father had inadvertantly injured him in a farm tractor accident; had him riding on it someway when it occurred. If you're ever upset or down because of some life event, a stroll through the surgical wing of a hospital could help you realize just how lucky you are. I was there for weeks and many of the nurses said they liked working the surgery section because most of the patients get better and leave; most don't die...
Very 1st thing I noticed ....Umm....the counter weight is on the wrong side . Anyway , he should have finished with the hand mower . The exercise would have done him some good .
@@boostismagic No I don't think so. He had his right foot out to stop him if he fell. As if he thought he could brace himself . Not with the weight of the machine and the angle he was at though. He had it all backwards .
Those things can kill you. 35 years ago I worked at Sams Club. A lady I saw often one day came in missing her foot. Just a big bandage. I overheard her say her riding mower flipped over and cut off her foot. Hill like that, use a weed eater. Man is lucky.
That's right, put extra weight on the side that you're tipping toward. That's how you "counterbalance" correctly right there. Everybody take notes from this guy.
So dumb. I hope he is ok. This is my biggest fear when running my Hustler Raptor. One yard I mow has slight incline that I usually cut with the string trimmer or a push mower.
My dad flipped his 2wd mower on a hill twice as steep as this cause he lost traction and in the slide one of his wheels caught a power pole guide wire. I wish he got video cause it sounded pretty spectacular but idk how he was even mowing that part, i couldn't even mow the flatter parts of his property without getting stuck. He said he was using his dirtbike skills to hang his weight on the side where the tires were slipping to get traction. After that he got a push mower for the steep part though 😂
I had a summer job cutting grass with a zero turn lawn mower. The orientation video says not to cut grass on a hill more than something like 15 degrees. That is a perfect world & in reality you are expected to cut on 30 Degree or maybe steeper - some hills seemed like a 45. That man is too heavy for one thing. He should have the roll bar up & seat belt on. Up & down hill might be better - I don't know?? I went straight up a hill once & the mower just about stalled out - but a woman that was light weight had no problem doing same thing.
Death Wish, the forgotten films. Hey, he had hearing protection on. Probably stopped someone from talking sense into him. Plus, he put all his weight on the downhill side
Seagulls usually make that call two or three times but maybe that’s just before they dive at you to try to take your fries. Judging from the size of him she has not been successful so she made just the single call.
I had one go over the top of me…when I was 12 and didn’t know any better. Was going straight up the hill, stopped for some reason, and when I started moving again it bucked and did a wheelie righ over me. Landed on its wheels behind me and crashed into the fence at the bottom of the hill. So I started it back up and finished :-)
@@gasNmudtv He won’t remember nothin important- if he wasn’t sitting on the low side it probably would have had plenty of side hill ballast 😂on the uphill side
Thats correct! But they also put ROPS bars on zero turns for this exact reason too, but they do no good, if you have the ROPS bar down. You can't fix stupid.
When I was 10 years old, my mom and I were walking down a country road, and we heard a lady screaming for help. She had been stuck under her lawn mower for hours. And we were able to flip the lawn mower over and help her. This was out in the middle of nowhere. The chance of someone hearing her screams was slim to none
Joe, that hill can be mowed safely if you first & foremost, get your right leg over where it belongs(safety first), if you don't have dual fuel tanks, make your cut with the tank towards the top of the hill, creep along at a snails pace, and once you have a steady (sloooow) speed, whichever one of your arms is facing up, reach it over kind of hug the side of the mower instead of the hydraulic to keep from over compensating as well as keep your body somewhat level.(Only touch that hydraulic a little at a time, if needed, to keep that wheel moving) Keep your "down" arm on the hydraulics to maintain slow & steady momentum. I do it all the time on my 52" Scag. You also might want to put your roll bar back on if you have it. Those type of hills are much safer with walk-behinds.
This is exactly how my best friend died when I was 10 years old. He was mowing his grandparents yard and the mower flipped on him in the ditch line and he was crushed to dead.
When I mowed for our City Park Dept one summer, there was a safety photo up in the breakroom of an overturned tractor and mower box at the base of a hill w/a very dead driver underneath w/the words "DONT LET THIS BE YOU!" Just to remind us what not to do.
At least he protected his hearing so he can hear the doctor tell him he’s overweight and has a broken neck. Even the best PPE can’t save a dumbass from themselves.
Oh I get it it’s a public service announcement and a how not to video,NOT.I’ll give it to him that was a pretty smooth barrel roll👏👏👏albeit unintentional.

when you don't realize that you weigh 400 pounds.......and you turn your wife into a seagull
*181,44kg
😂😂
😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊
Second half of that statement is spot on!😂
Seagulls usually make that call two or three times but maybe that’s just before they dive at you to try to take your fries. Judging from the size of him she has not been successful so she made just the single call.
Hurt stream at the end was the cherry on top😂.. My jaw sorta dropped too when it happened 😅
A great video displaying the concept of "Natural Selection"
You know you messed up when somebody else has to scream for you.
Facts 😂
You call that a scream? 😂
This guy seems pretty laid back
Lol😂
nice!😂
😂😂😂😂 🤣😂
😂😂😂
I imagine thats what he puts on his dating profile. Ladies gonna love it when he lays back, and they have to do all the work.
That chicken filming has a crazy screams
This is the best description of America.
I'm a landscaper. My old boss once went over a hill with the ride-on and nearly had the thing land on him. Respect your center of gravity!
Bet he won't forget that!
I had one go over the top of me…when I was 12 and didn’t know any better. Was going straight up the hill, stopped for some reason, and when I started moving again it bucked and did a wheelie righ over me. Landed on its wheels behind me and crashed into the fence at the bottom of the hill. So I started it back up and finished :-)

He won’t remember nothin important- if he wasn’t sitting on the low side it probably would have had plenty of side hill ballast 😂on the uphill side
The perfect "shut up woman. I know what Im doin!" video...
Like the woman had anything to offer here, some yes, but most no.
I couldn't stop watching this and laughing at this boob! What an ultra maroon (as Bugs Bunny says)
Now everyone knows why homeowners insurance is so high $$$$$.
I've always wanted to see the bottom of these big boy mowers! Thanks 😁👍
lol ive seen them as a landscaper pullimg and sharpening blades. But First thing i thought was (damn that's a awesome view lol)
🤣🤣🤣🤣👍🏽
He’s the reason we can’t buy good gas cans anymore!
Fr 😂
You can find the good old gas cans at flea markets but you pay the antique price for them.
This is something that burns me! lol, I’ve been complaining about gas cans for years now! 😂
No... LAWYERS that defended the idiots ruined gas cans.
No that’s your loving government ‼️🔥😂
That was a Cool Trick Old Man! I bet he's done that before..😂🤣😂🤣
That boy is real smart. There’s only one really good way to access those blades for service!
I like how he’s leaning to the side where it’ll make it tip instead of the side that’ll keep it from tipping
He had no choice in the matter, gravity and all the pork steaks prevented him from leaning on the top side
@@ScotteM Fr only thing he coulda done was ratchet strap himself up there
Blubber like water seeks its own level
@@ScotteM regretting every single last bite🥲
@@user-ik9mo8wm7q hahahahaha
I’ve often wondered what the underside of a zero turn looked like... thank you sir!
😂
😆😄🤣👍
Kudos to the guy for wearing the ear protection.
I wonder how many kids are watching this and saying I want to be just like that pilot when I grow up 😂😂😂
Sometimes, the push mower isn't such a bad thing.
From the looks of this guy, though, he's not touched a push mower in his life. 😂
@@ShawnyMike 🤣🤣
Thank.
You.
Yes, he'd do better and do it safer with a push mower.
Yeah loose some weight fatty get a push mower
Or u can just weed wack that spot
That's why they put safety switches on the seat...for when you get bucked off❤
Yea but everyone knows you're supposed to get rid of those 😂
Thats correct! But they also put ROPS bars on zero turns for this exact reason too, but they do no good, if you have the ROPS bar down. You can't fix stupid.
😂Obviously a " product design flaw. " 😂
Momma told me there is an idiot born every day. Now I believe it!!
I never tried that on my riding mower. It would have spilled my beer.
You gotta respect the beer!
You can tell this guy is a professional blade sharpener, letting the machine get its self into position. GOOD MAN
Is that you, Joe? Three videos to your name and you've gotten nearly 9M views. Stay safe when doing your next one! 🙏❤
This short is everything I thought it would be the first few times I avoided watching it.
When I was 10 years old, my mom and I were walking down a country road, and we heard a lady screaming for help. She had been stuck under her lawn mower for hours. And we were able to flip the lawn mower over and help her. This was out in the middle of nowhere. The chance of someone hearing her screams was slim to none
Glad you were there to help.
Amazing, 🙏 she sure was lucky you were around.
Probably saved her dumb ass life. Some people are so fucking stupid it sickens me.
Glad you were at rhe right place at the right time to help
@@thawrath9306 the only stupid person is u with comments like that. Everyone makes mistakes doesn't make them stupid.
This guy is the reason why the Power Rangers had to yell their colours out.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Best one yet!!! lmfao🤣🤣🤣🤣
😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣
💀
No effing way!!!! I never thought of that, but it’s true!
That scream get anybody else? 😄
Joe, that hill can be mowed safely if you first & foremost, get your right leg over where it belongs(safety first), if you don't have dual fuel tanks, make your cut with the tank towards the top of the hill, creep along at a snails pace, and once you have a steady (sloooow) speed, whichever one of your arms is facing up, reach it over kind of hug the side of the mower instead of the hydraulic to keep from over compensating as well as keep your body somewhat level.(Only touch that hydraulic a little at a time, if needed, to keep that wheel moving)
Keep your "down" arm on the hydraulics to maintain slow & steady momentum. I do it all the time on my 52" Scag. You also might want to put your roll bar back on if you have it. Those type of hills are much safer with walk-behinds.
Finally a truly safety-minded operator. See his hearing protection?
What for his wife's scream?
😂😂😂 😢this is crazy
“Hello Mr. George…..”
“How much you pay for the new guy?”
“20 bucks?……….”
“Too much money, he no good”
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
😂😆😂😆
😁😆🤣
Noooo bueno mr George. No buenooo...
Hahahaha
No good operator.. lolol
When you let ButterBall mow the lawn
Seat Safety Switch:
Operation Confirmed 👍
You sit on the high side, not the low side
Right lol 😂
Yea no kidding. What a retard move!!!
The angle is too steep, regardless-- no shame in buying a string trimmer.
That's not the right tool for the job, it's the wrong mower also.
Pretty sure he can’t hold his big ass on the high side lol
More proof that wisdom don't always come with age
They swear they be smarter than you too cause your young, then they turn around and do this lmao
Nah I’m sure he know it was a bad idea but you can’t fix stupid.
“Mom and dad! Can we get lawn care guy?!”
No we have lawn care guy at home
...and he hangs/pulls (with his considerable mass) from the downhill side. Easy to see where this was going, hope he didn't get seriously injured.
He is the reason front mounted 4x4 mowers were built. He is darn lucky to be alive and could maybe go take a physics class!
MoMan01 Or an exercise class.
I’m pretty sure those existed before the z turn.
@@johnschauder 100%
Thought for sure he was going to lose that leg.
This is exactly how my best friend died when I was 10 years old. He was mowing his grandparents yard and the mower flipped on him in the ditch line and he was crushed to dead.
Just think about the fact that he told his wife to record this so he could show off his new mower, And then laugh
That was like seeing the highly secretive bottom of an F1 car due an accident....very surprising! Thank you sir!
When I mowed for our City Park Dept one summer, there was a safety photo up in the breakroom of an overturned tractor and mower box at the base of a hill w/a very dead driver underneath w/the words "DONT LET THIS BE YOU!" Just to remind us what not to do.
If you ever feel like a failure, rewatch this video and smile
At least he protected his hearing so he can hear the doctor tell him he’s overweight and has a broken neck. Even the best PPE can’t save a dumbass from themselves.
You figure he would realize all of this, his glasses are rose colored.
Yea tipping backwards basically in slow motion usually results in a broken neck.
@@TheEnd-eg6wq with the weight of a full size LG fridge plus a lawn mower on it, it sure does.
@@blameitonthewhiteguy It didn't turn over on top of him. It tipped on its side, he'll be ok.
@@TheEnd-eg6wq no shit? Figure that out all on your Bill Nye the science guy?
I used to work at a golf course, they have a special mower for that. It wide. That mower is for flat ground.
Oh I get it it’s a public service announcement and a how not to video,NOT.I’ll give it to him that was a pretty smooth barrel roll👏👏👏albeit unintentional.
He's a lucky boy, can't understand how he's got this far in life with that lack of judgement.
Probably still lives at home with his mother
Mandated safety switches.
That's what kept him from becoming a poor excuse for chicken salad that day.
@@danielkutcher5704 I have to be completely honest. Now my fat ass wants chicken salad.🍗🥗 😋🤣🤣🤣
We should be asking almost the whole us population that
White privilege?
He f@cking drifted that thing like a boss AND popped a wheelie at the end! Legend!
Tokyo drift
He’s that one kid that was cracked at Mario Kart
This should be in a training video of some sorts. Also, the scream in the background had me dieing 😂
Some folks were born to stack shelves.
