Suden cutoff at end
I guess we'll have to fire Becky next!
@@MillennialFarmer No way bro. Becky knows to always leave the audience wanting. God Bless.
🤣@@MillennialFarmer
@@MillennialFarmer fire the toy rabbit, it probably stole the spring clip securing the pin
It's called a cliff-hanger, it brings anticipation for the follow-up video 😉😆
Onyx, Jim would be so proud.................... That he's not getting blamed this time !!😂
🤣
@@CurrentChoicesk
I dropped a round baler off a tractor when I was around Onyx’s age. You handled it way better than my dad did 😂
Hooked a disc on a power pole when I was first learning. This was about on par with my dad's reaction. Visibly upset but not taking the frustrations out on a kid who's learning/ didn't do anything wrong in onyx case.
Exact same thing happened to me. I didn’t bother to put the hairpin cotter in and I left the baler about 300 ft behind me with hoses dragging behind the tractor. My grandpa talked about it until the day he died.
Oh god I could hear my old men !
Ditto!!!
He probably acted different off camera
Man the production team left us with a cliff hanger at the end of this episode !😮
“Back in my day we didn’t just waste the rocks by piling them in a fence row, we used them to build barn foundations!” -my grandfather
My father had me picking rocks with a wheelbarrow, then taking them to fill in ravines and the bottom of the pond. Drove my mother nuts, he wouldn't 'waste' the gasoline to park a wagon up there for me to fill up, instead I wasted time walking the rocks back and forth with the 'barrow. He had....issues.
Same every old building was made from field rocks
And it turns out they were right and are lasting well over a 100 years. We would be lucky to get 30 years out of our new foundation
"Building character" is what my grandad would have called picking rocks by hand 🤣
Yeah we did that on dad's farm for the new barn addition, just mix em into the concrete. The bad news is they didn't work out very well as the foundation caved in after about 10 years.
"Depends on how good it goes....Or not."
Onyx: "Hold my Dr. Pepper."
Onyx, go fund the pin and then call dad. He'll be as baffled as us.
Thank you for how you handled the roller situation and Onyx , and that you didn't directly blame Onyx for it, understanding that it was just something that happened.
I could feel the silent tension as he seen the hitch and was told the pin was still in the tractor lol. "This makes no sense? Kid is lying. What would i do/say if I were him right now to cover this up?.... #&#^$&&@&!"- voice inside Zack's head... probably. Handled it well lol
@@jonkluver7912 yes I was thinking the same thing, Zack handled that way better than I would have, that's for sure. Plus the fact that he had a friend riding with him...
You know those rocks are just going to run right back out into the field.
Shows how much you know....rocks actually walk.
Others have said it Zach, but, well done for keeping your cool in that situation when time constrants are against you. My son is a similar age to Onyx. It took me a while to realise if you keep your cool, they'll stay engaged more and learn how to deal with a situation when your not there to help. Great videos, keep up the great work.
Had a roller bounce off our tractor too. Now we put tarp strap over the pin handle, in addition to the retaining pin in the bottom.
I'm surprised that these new tractors don't come with breakaway brackets for the quick connects. I remember installing those on my older tractors
Suspenders and a belt.
What a cliffhanger ending. Will Onyx get the roller to the end of the field? Will the Millennium Farmer get the field planted? Will it rain in 3 days ? Find out next time! Same bat time, same bat channel. That last reference was for the Gen X viewers lol.
liked how u reference to batman, i looked at the old shows when they had fast forward so the car looked to get faster then it did.... 1990... good old nice time...
I thought it was batty channel?
That Arrowhead was pretty sick! I bet a museum would pay a lot of money for that.
These things happen. I’ve had things happen before that left me scratching my head trying to figure out how in the world it could have happened. All we can do is repair and keep going and be thankful it wasn’t worse.
Agreed 👍
When i was a young fella about 13 I was towing a single axle wooden spray trailer home for lunch. Was half full. I looked back to see the trailer being dragged along by the pto pump hoses. The pin had jumped out. I was using a John Deere model.G. I stomped on the brakes which were great and the trailer prompty smashed into back of the tractor drawbar..it broke every cross joist in the trailer deck. My Dad just passed away on Sunday but he didnt rip me up. A short time later we rebuilt it together stronger with steel and a new deck. Fond memories and a valuable learning lesson.
When we chopped grass for the cows, I drove the trailer. The wagon jumped off the hitch and the pullbar went straight into the cab in the 4455 John Deere. If I hadn't ducked at the last second like I did, I would be dead today. I was 16 years old when they happened...
I got my ears warm…
You handled that situation really well with Onyx.👌
Pretty amazing watching 3 generations work. You’re a great footstep for onyx to follow. Props to him for catching whatever happened that quick.
Love how Anna and Didge relax back in the rear seat 😂
We actually did pick em by hand when I was a kid on a farm in Southern Manitoba, you millenials have it so good. We were gaining on them little by little and then some genius came up with the deep tiller and we had a whole new crop of rocks.
I've had the same thing happen with a Lemken tiller. Hit a bump and it jacked the pin right out of the hitch. Luckily I was on the corner turning and was on the decelerator pedal when it happened and the safety chain caught it. I didn't have the clip in the bottom of the hitch pin then, now it doesn't run without it.
You ever have a blumpkin?
Did you forget to put an ending in? Poor Onxy, he magiced the roller off. Bit of a pain needing to replace some hoses, but it could've been so much worse with broken hitches, all the hoses pulled out, and the tractor inputs broken too.
Ha! One of my spring jobs as a young teenager for hire was picking rocks…by hand…up hill…both ways!!!
It's just one of those things that happens, as we all know how really good Onyx is at stopping immediately if a problem ever occurs and calling Dad. Gee's that wind is something else too!
The cut off at the end!! Darn those screen writers and editors. But seriously love the video. Can’t wait for part two.
Hourly workers??lol
I can't wait to see how the writers solve this problem
"boy we've had trouble with the roller, huh?" - Nate
That was kinda funny the way he said that. 🤣
Excellent work I'd say to the actor that plays Zach in these videos. I marvel at how calm your dad always remains as well. I grew up farming and it's an understatement to say that my dad would have not remained calm with the roller situation.
That seems to be the consensus in these comments 😂 I guess we all had stern fathers but we’re all better men for it now I’d wager
that was a sudden ending
that’s how you know it was a stressful and really inconvenient situation
Cliff hanger. What happens next?
The camera battery probably died
That's what she said.
😂
This totally reminds me of when my younger cousin ran our International into a hedgerow of trees. He said he couldn’t turn it. He didn’t handle it as well as Onyx did lol. He thought he was in serious trouble. I got it out only to discover he somehow had locked the rear wheels with the foot pedal and didn’t realize it. Mistakes and mishaps happen, sometimes when it’s even not your fault. Happy to see how well Zach handled it. Tractor on!
The same thing happened to us last year. Luckily we used a safety chain and it did it's job and nothing broke. Still crazy how the pins can jump out and back into place.
its like how magic works...
3:53 yes they do. 3 days from now, rain. you guys need 3 days to finish planting, and luck. have fun, guys.
I spent many hours picking up rock by hand. That rock picker is amazing! Wish I could have had one.
Was one of my first jobs ever...Picking Rocks...I think I made 2$ bucks an hour if I remember correct. And I agree wish I would have had one of those back then LOL.
The pin on my planter popped out and fell back in just like that a few years ago.
“ ….an Arrowhead from back in the day” lol Kindest regards,Sunshine Coast,BC 🇨🇦
A new Millennia Farmer video to watch while eating pizza can't ask for a better day.
You need to get out more 😃
Believe it or not we had the same thing happen on a CIH tractor. The pin jumped up, the implent in hooked and the pln fell back into the drawbar. Never could explain it.
That exact thing has happened to me. retaining clip falls off, pin works its way up and out just enough for the trailer to fall off and then then pin "magically" drops back in.
very irritating, I've gotten to the point I use a chunk of copper wire on the pin handle... but someone mentioned using a tarp strap for that.
I have thought about welding a permanent clip onto the tractor side of the hitch that retains the pin handle.
Our roller came of our tractor too and the pin was in the tractor still and nothing was broken
u handled that well ur dad always seem calm about stuff
Had a brand new hitch pin break on the crusher, only used the pin on about 10 acres. Brother lost the pull-type chopper, had the pin pop up enough for the chopper to fall off and then reseat in the drawbar. Which was more impressive since the pto shaft acted as a secondary safety pin, not sure what happened to the actual safety pin.
I had a chopper box pass me on my tractor going down a slight downhill. Pin was still in.
Had that happen once pulling a disk where the pin bounced enough to drop the plow but landed back in the drawbar. Still haven’t figured that one out. 😂😅I chain the pin down now for the disk.
Its the little things that get you every time. I saw an Oliver 6/18" moldboard dropped off the 3 point tool bar. 6 3/4" bolts sheered off. Those little gremlins run around laughing at you. I look back with fond memory of the 4 years I sat in the seat of a tractor.
Brother used to never bother putting the safty pin in our drop hitches until the mulcher came unhooked going down the road. Luckily it only deleted a mailbox
Well Onyx, you'll have a story to tell years from now about that strange equipment fail. We all have them. Nothing that can't be fixed. I think a bit more security on the hitch pin is in order. May God bless you this season.
Thanks for an interesting video everyone.
It was interesting and left you wondering what happened to the pin on the roller. Things happen.
Appreciate the way the situation with the roller was handled. I agree with you Zach, I believe that pin came up far enough to let the roller come loose. You said the pin was gone. Explains the pin coming up.
Sorry the hoses are broken and hose coupler on the tractor will need replacing.
I really appreciate the way you handled things with Onyx. Am sure he does also.
I had the pull type combine come loose and I caught holy you know what for a week.
Things happen around farm machinery. Fix it and press on I always say.
Crazy how those dogs get in the four by four. Amusing to watch.
They love to ride.
You all hang in there. Agree with your dad on keeping the planter going and double back to the roller situation later.
You all take care and be safe. Hopefully you can get the roller going without too much expense and time fixing it.
Once again, my compliments for handling the roller situation the way you did.
The Iowa farm boy. Steve.
Yep picking rocks is a lot more important fun today than it was in the 60s
Thanks for being a great dad and understanding that things happen and not overreact.
Becky with the cliffhanger!!! Dun Dun DUN!!!
I had a field cultivator come unhooked while I was traveling on county road. The hammer strap come unbolted ? Pin bounced out when I shifted.. JD8640 . It about tipped over backwards onto a car that was following toooo close. The hoses were the only thing that stopped it.. lol
Backing Up, Lining up the Pen, Keeping his cool AND holding the camera!?!? Who exactly is the @MillennialFarmer?
He's more than a man, but less than a God.
@@MillennialFarmerGod takes notes from the MF'er.
He’s HIM 😂 HIMothy himself!
Your not the only channel with roller mishaps this year. Brian, from Brian's Farming Videos, knocked over a power line with a roller.
Can just feel the stress out there! Stay calm and carry on!
So impressed with y’all.
I was half waiting for a Chris Farley "What'd you do!" from Tommy Boy.
Dang outtro came unhooked too. 🤣
I snagged a fence with a bailer when I was 10. Pulled about 25 yards down before I realized. My dad wasn't nearly as nice as you were with Onyx!!
I bet you remember putting that back up though. And i guess you didnt do it again.
Yea probably
Oh the joy's of farming! That looks expensive!! Many thanks !!
Good on you for how you treated/handled the situation with onyx from what we saw great job
That arrowhead was probably used in the giant ancient crossbows of the day!
Mammoth Killer there!
Fav popeye line..."Hey, I does'nt like your altitude"
Well done, teenage children require patience, you did great.
The writers really outdid themselves on this episode...even ended with a cliffhanger! Could just feel all the emotions from the actor that plays farmer Johnson, too. Can't wait to tune in to the next one!
My grandfather dumped all of hid field rock at the entrance across the road from the main drive to the house. It's also the same place he would dump the limbs and brush gathered from the ground around the house, once a year (usually in the fall after harvest) he'd burn the brush.
Awesome video Zach. Sucks about the roller disconnecting from the tractor. Hope everything can be repaired to working order. 🚜🚜🚜
This isn't he first time something's happened with Onyx at the controls. And his fault or not, I'm always impressed the way you handle it. Always blameless and solving the issue rather than getting mad and taking w/e random thing out on him and/or the things around him. I had my collection of mishaps on the farm including a wheel rotating off a hopper wagon full of beans and dragging the whole thing 50ft down the road. Every time something happens I think back to similar situations I've been in and it just makes me respect you more and more based on the way you handle it. Thanks.
Zach and Dad Becky great job great video we going to finish thank you for sharing
I have lost more of those safety pins in my time. All it takes is some tall weeds or a corn stalk to pull them out. Once had a set of discs come unhooked when i stopped on a hill to open a gate. The truck that was following was able to get out of the way in time. Started using welding rod as a safety pin after that.
Strap the pin in, I suspect it bounced up enough to let the hitch slide out, then fell back into place. Notice the spacer was out and undamaged too.
That's sounds like that's exactly what happened it jumped high enough for the spacer to fall off but the pin was just low enough to stay in the top of the hitch
I’ve had that happen with those hitches before. The latch part of the pin pops up and the pin comes almost all the way out and goes back in place with just enough time for the hitch to slip out. It’s a perfect timing kind of situation where all the planets line up perfectly.
What a way to leave a guy in suspense!!!🤣🤣
Same thing happened to me 3 weeks ago while finishing with high-speed Lemken disk. Good thing the safety-chain was on. Have enough issue as it is with the hydraulic couplers on the CHN.
I'm gonna make my own hammer-strap pine-locker. Two tapped block welded on each side of the hammer-strap for grade 8, 3/4" bolts, to screw a 3/4" plate on top of the pine. And cut the pine flush under the bar for added measure.
Some will say they don't like to hassle with bolt when hooking/unhooking (while they also loose their pine lol)
Besides, who doesn't carry their Milwaukee impact with two batteries and a box set these days?
Also, that could have happened on the road switching field etc. Those pine just raise up by themself with the tension and twisting, and strong enough to break the safety-clip.
That is very true, back when I was a kid we did pick those rocks by hand on and off the stoneboat. That is why I have a rock picker and rock bucket for the skid steer.
Your ability to handle unexpected challenges like the roller falling off the tractor with composure and determination is truly admirable, Onyx! Your resilience in the face of adversity is an inspiration to us all.
And I Am Floating Village Life
We had that exact thing happen with a field cultivator a couple years ago spacer and pin stayed in but cultivator went in the ditch
Back in my day we had to walk up hill both ways to pick up rocks in the fields.
Lol
My son had that happen driving a big square baler through town as he was cresting a hill! Thank God nobody was behind him, after the tow company pulled it out of an abandoned house we hooked it back up and he drove it home
Had that happen with our roller once too, pin just popped right up and right back down😂.
The impressions love it 😂😂❤
you could crush those rocks and put them on your drive way. No delivery charge
I remember pouring bag beans in a JD 494 back in the 60's. Times sure have changed .😊
Dang cliffhanger!! Lol
Hey dad. I loved how you delt with that. Tuition moment. Keep up the good work you both.
Love the dramatic ending!!! Emmy level writting!
It's that type of edge of your seat action that keeps us tuning in week after week, gotta keep those ratings up
I had a cattle trailer pop off the hitch when I was about Onyx’s age. The land roller situation worked out much better than a wrecked trailer in a gully and a dead cow.
We understand about the sudden off your trying to get the beans in before the rain.. Good luck!
We’ve had a similar thing happen pulling gravity wagons over a hill. The pin popped up when the load came off momentarily while cresting the hill. The pin dropped right back into the drawbar. What a mess we had.
Magic, definitely Magic. I love how calm you are when you know Magic can only be performed By a magician and his assistant
love your guys content!!!
I love farming so much I'm so happy!
Neighbor kid with the spacer, just trying to help and not get in trouble! 😂😂
He actually brought in the most important piece of evidence to enable a reasonable explanation of the sequence of events leading to the accident when he found the spacer…
Happy to see Your Rock Crop, is growing.
Says Every Farmer! 😂😂😂
Good response Mr. Dad
great video . Thank you guys
I’ve had the same thing happen before, I think a Cornstalk took the keeper out of the bottom of the pin and then I hit a bump and it came unhooked taking all the hoses with it, but luckily, I never had trouble with the remotes
That's what dad's do - fix all the problems that the rest of the family can't fix themselves. Sometimes you just gotta stop thinking and start doing, if not you will loose your mind 😂
I’ve actually had that happen with that style pin. Lost a turbo max behind me in the field 2 years ago and everything was fine. I started wrapping a tarp strap around the pin to hold it down from potentially lifting.
I’ve caught my planter working my hitch pin up on my tractor, kept banging when I down shifted at the end and figured out it was dropping back down.
I came to your channel from the Cboys Podcast and I've watch an unhealthy amount of you videos in the past 2 days. I've recently become obsessed with farming because I started to play Farm Simulator 22, LOL!
Had the same thing happen pulling the ripper this spring
On the tractor (Case quadtrac) we use to pull the roller with the pin has a retainer stop for the handle that must be moved manually out of the way any time you want to pull the pin out. Not saying that it couldn’t happen but it has worked flawlessly for us.
That fingers 2.0? The tractor was moving!!
It happens. That is the wonders of farming.
No one hurt the main thing. 😊
