- ** The day after the record breaking snow fall, Mike is out in full force trying to plow out some streets to help the neighbours get to work. Oh, but he quickly realized that work and school was cancelled for most parts of Swift Current and most likely the heavy hit areas of Saskatchewan. I guess you could say it was a "Snow Day"! 🙂😂
** Mike also quickly realized that those sewer lids in the streets are NOT fun to hit with the loader and tractor! 🤦
** Mike also just literally drove all over the city including down town just trying to help out anyone he could find 🙂

Farmers are the best neighbors to have and you can’t change my mind. They will always help you out in a time of need
I remember getting towed for about 4miles after a snow storm to get home, good ole farmer neighbours
One time years ago my son and I were on our way hunting in my good old 69 Bronco and the front hub locked up. As I was checking it a farmer stopped and asked if I was ok. Told him I was and he told me that he would never leave someone by the side of the road. He stayed till I left and followed me for a few miles. I was so grateful for people like him. A week later I got to help someone else who was having truck problems.
Sort of the same thing, but the Amish I know are all heroes. We had a tornado rip through northern Pittsburgh area a few years back, the nearby Amish community literally cleaned up and rebuilt the entire town by hand and wouldn't take any sort of payment. 7 weeks they worked dawn to dust for nothing.
Bryce, which is this city ?

Thanks for helping with the streets! Cool to see me & my partner clearing on your video!
Those rare moments when the work of farmers is appreciated for real.
On ya Mike , here in Darwin Australia its 39 deg C....beer weather
My dad was there years ago and said it's like the hottest ever! 🤣
@@mikemitchell2554 yeah this time of year it's called the build up it's hot and humid. It also Cyclone season. We have a name for people who go loopy this time of year it's called Mango Madness😂😂😂. I used to work for Schlumberger as an oil engineer and done some work over your way years ago I'll never forget the cold!
I am “EXTREMELY DISAPPOINTED” that you don’t have the “Man Holes” programmed into the tractor’s GPS 🤣😂🤣😂🚜🤣🤣🤣😂
Tell me about it! 🤦
@@mikemitchell2554 Glad to see you slept in a little longer this morning and “Recharged Your Battery” so you are rested for the next blizzard
😴😴❄️❄️💨💨💪💪
I'm surprised the manholes are raised like that, here in Virginia they're almost always sunk beneath the top layer of pavement. It's not like we get a ton of snow but I always assumed that was the reason to sink them in.
@@MrMattumbo It could be a very new subdivision and the top coat of asphalt has not been applied yet?
@@birkenstockresouler That's the only case I can think of, around here that happens then once they fix the road a few times the height increases. Still I'd expect that to be done from the start in someplace that far north, if Mike is having trouble in his own neighborhood God help the snowplows with miles of road to clear in a day.
If we got that much snow in western Kentucky, we would be stuck until July. lol
The funny is that tractors have *draft*, a ratio of their weight that they can pull through the material they are on. Softer material ends up being the same as harder, but when you put a tractor on softer material and try to run a drawbar draft into something harder you don't have anywhere near the force to play with. On soft-pack like that the tractor's draft is limited to the depth of the tread, so if it's trying to pull something buried deeper than the tread of the tractor the object must also be either much lighter or much narrower. That's how you determine how much tractor and tire you need for tillage. The cross section of tread combined with the soil's profile vs the amount of share you're trying to pull. If the draft is bigger than the share you move, if the share is bigger than the draft you don't... but the tires still spin. Its amazing that we spend $200k+ on giant fuel and maintenance hungry machines that literally cannot out-pull a team of horses... given you can't stick a shaft up a horse and get 540 rpm with 180ftlbs of torque.
I wonder how cold it must be for Mike to say:"Nope, I'm staying inside."
Just came across this video Mike been watching your videos today and that snow was crazy!!! Good thing it’s spring!!! Love your videos!!!! Farm On!!!👍👍
Wow snow amazing
You are a great person "people try to pay me but I don't do it for money, I just do it to help people out" I love it!
That was entertaining, snow is a lot more fun when it’s a few thousand kms away!
Good job Mike
This this right here is why I live in the south and then I go and drive a truck in freaking Montana during the winter months makes sense don't it.
Mike! You ARE A Blessing!! And a real education to me! All my life: Southern California!
Your a good man Mike ! God bless you
You are a nice guy. I hope it all comes back to you.
This video makes me miss Canada even more..
People are so nice, care about each other and have a strong bound through community☺️
This is no comparison to Europe..
Man Mike, you keep thanking us for watching your daily lives, but I am afraid to say it, but you earn mad respect with the way you lead your life!
Just do what you do best and that is being Mike!
In the netherlands are happy with 5cm of snow here are like meters of snow Keep up the good work Mike
Awesome job helping out people.
My brother. Your an amazing human. Love ya and I hope you had an amazing Thanksgiving!!!!!!
Thanksgiving was back in October in Canada, ;).
I am a Italian transporter and I congratulate you on the service you do also helping fellow truck drivers 👏👏👏
Thank you from all the truckers on the road Mike.you are doing a great thing for them and I now they wish you and yours a happy xmas and a happy new year
You are certainly a blessing to many. I believe you enjoy playing in the snow as much as you enjoy dirt.
Hi Mike.. You have a good soul... Thank you for what you did ❤️❤️
Drill some holes and attach some training wheels to the side of the bucket. Will keep you a set distance off the ground.
They make skid shoes for buckets
Outstanding Human Mr. Mitchell...well done Sir.
Very nice gesture of you to be helping people out of those snowbanks Mike!
Great video Mike! Reminded me of helping people out back in the 50's and early 60's. Of course we didn't have big tractors like that but did the best we could with what we had.
Just love your positivity you guys have, we have so much to learn from you here in France ! 👍
Doing good things for people just because fills your soul no need for payment! Awesome work Mike. Its amazing how many peoples lives you affected just by digging them out. Doctors, nurses, popeyes employees, people just wanting to go check on their elderly folks. Elderly folks who just want to get to a safe place! Good on my brother, good on ya! You sir are the richest man on the earth, your wealth, mankind!
What a snow storm. I'm the same way here in Virginia, I help when I can pull some one out. But nothing here like you have. Thanks for sharing. God Bless
Thanks John! 🙂
Ha Mike thanks for the tour really appreciate it. U been a brothers keeper. Keep it up bro
Thanks for pitching in to keep the streets clear. Huge relief for those having to get out and about.
Great video Mike that’s a lot of snow ❄️
your one heck of a nice guy with a BIG heart, in winters like these people need to help each other out! If i had a big tractor like that i would do the same thing you did in this video. I own/operate a Lawn Care & Snow Removal Business in Michigan, i don't have big equipment more "home owner" stuff BUT i have tackled my fair share of heavy snows before, as long as it gets the job done right? Try to post more videos like this in the future i love seeing them :)
Nice to see some humanity left in the world you’ve further enforced that your a real nice guy Mike , stay warm stay safe you guys over there
This has probably been my favorite video of yours so far, we need more lol
Hats of to a true gentleman
Glad i dont have neighbours like you Mike, cos im happy to be snowed in and have a few days off 😁😁😁😁
Being a blessing to someone is a great feeling!😀
Grate work. Helping is in a farmers blood. Keep it up 👍
Mike, I enjoyed you video immensely. Great narration. Thanks!
The Farmer mentality of giving... Great to see that...
Mike, You'll be blessed in life for your helping others out. Hope you enjoy the Holiday Season. Stay healthy and safe my friend.
Great that you can and do help people! Kudos to you Mike!
Mike, you are a great neighbor! Looks like the blizzard left quite a mess! You take care!
This looks like the right time to test out some snowblower attachments for tractors!
It is such a blast to watch what you are doing. Always having fun no matter what is going on. I always look forward to seeing what is next.
Great videos Mike..Your an awesome human being....
Great job Mike. Keep being a blessing!
Mike, hats off to you.
I know the struggle of helping out while i was snow plowing roads here with a tractor or an 6x6
dump truck with 3.2m plow, but it was my job and i had to do my section before 6 in the morning.
I allways drove another round trough my route and helped out what i could, but you cant please them all.
Gurenteed the truck driver walked to Popeyes and the tow operator met him there.
Nope
Well done Mike! I agree, sometimes helping people and having a thank you is better than money!
It's interesting just how slow that tractor turns over but still starts. My insurance man would tell me that I have now insurance coverage as soon as I put a bucket or blade onto the ground on the street.
Thanks for sharing
My hats off to you Mike. Its nice you don't take the money. It will come back around to you someday.
Brother that is so awesome for you to be helping people out, it just looks miserably cold to me. I have never seen snow like that before I’m from Texas and usually only get a skiff of snow. Great videos and channel.
You're a good man mike Mitchell 👏
So many new entries on the stuck list 😁
Two manhole covers, one for the storm drainage system, one for the sewer system.
Man I remember this storm. I sure got a lot of funny looks when I drove my lowered car to work that day. Only people driving around were in 4x4 trucks.
Here in Minnesota and Wisconsin we just plow the majority of the snow off the roads to start with. As long as the snow isn’t piled up the cars can still drive. After most of it is gone plow trucks will try scraping a bit more off and spread sand. Winter is always a fun challenge.
Good morning. I didn't realize you lived in an apartment. That's awesome!
Mike you are a gentleman, Fair play to ya
Thanks Mike!!
thats peoples gratitude to say thank you.
Hello Mike, I live in central Pennsylvania and we have NOT had that much snow in a while. 😃 THANKFULLY! Your neighbors should thank you a lot! Nothing worse with snow up over your butt and thinking you can shovel it!
❤&🙏 🙋
Bonjour Mike tu et un bon samaritain continus avec toute tes vidéos un grand merci
Keep up the good work Mike! Always good to help people around you when you can. Be safe out there!
Brilliant video , you got so much snow , well done for helping so many people out
God bless you, I'm giving you the the blessing of Oklahoma standard. Trying to clear the parking lot so people can get their cars out.
Thanks for those storms videos! Awesome
i could watch your videos all day , enjoyed the video thanks mike take care on them roads,
😂 2 bob cats lmao mike brought the tank
Nice job Mike. You need to get a hold of yankem ropes, and get you one of those on your tractor for pulling people out. Much better than a chain. Thanks for sharing all of your adventures.
awesome job mike, we need more people like u here in little current ontario
Just a curious question, do you have Finnish background in your family?
Nice of you
You took the words right out of my mouth. I was about to suggest “Command Start” for your tractor and damned if those weren’t the words that came from your mouth.🤣😂
Amazing Mike, job well done!
Nice to see you Mike take care. Geoff from UK
Your a good guy I do the same thing in California. Our snow is a little bit wet and heavier. Good job on helping others
Hi Mike, a very nice job.
Big dump in speedy creek!!🤷♂️🙂 just a good samaritan in the snow!!👍👌❄☃️
Was province wide!
Wrecked us up in stoon lol
@@averygibson3280 excessive in speedy creek by the looks!!❄☃️
18 hours of snow clearing up here by the time i was done
@@averygibson3280 🔨👇👌❄☃️
That tractor light pack!!! goes night to day real quick!
Mike your such a nice guy helping everyone! That all i have to say for today.
You are literally just a grown up kid with bigger toys playing in the snow. What a gret guy, I hope your neighbors apreciate what you're doing for them. Should be worth at least a BBQ in summer time! Keep up that great mindset!
Hey thanks! 🙂
you are an absolute gent Mr Mitchell
When I was contracting we ran a Fendt 926, it was a superb tool. Way ahead of the competition.
That guy in the truck trying to pull the semi needs one of the bungie ropes they are awesome!
Us truckers are always glad for the help,and we know your diesel isn't free and a tow truck can charge hundreds of dollars
Ya we only charge 200 my diesel isn't free either my dude
Stay safe and warm.
Good work Mike. Way to pay it forward.
Canadians are so nice thought it was a stereotype but nah
Edit: this is why you always have a tow hooks in your bumper in canada.
Luckily most automobile manufacturers will have a tow point underneath the cat in the frame somewhere, if it doesn't already come with a tow hook on the bumper.
@@thomasbeach-johnson5988 seen so many people causing more trouble not having tow hook on their bumpers especially big rigs.
depends where you go in Canada, small towns / country always have very friendly people -- big cities like Toronto and Vancouver are full of miserable people. (Toronto and Van still have nice people just a little less frequent)
@@PhilDesigns true very true
Your AWESOME Mike. Good riding with ya!! Two thumbs up 👍👍
Kids will love that you built them a small snow hill to slide on
Hello Mike, man I never see snow, today here in Biloela Central Qld Australia it was 40c quite the opposite to your conditions, you fellows will have a white Christmas , we will have a hot Christmas. great work your doing Mike, Merry Christmas & a Happy & Prosperous New Year 2021, Regards Trevor.W.Bacelli. Biloela Qld Australia.
Good job Mike and Ashtyn (sp)I used to plow snow as a side hustle. I used to live across the highway from a cemetery. They only plowed snow if they had a funeral. It's holiday season, it snowed. Cemetery not plowed. Nice older lady stuck in cemetery and very upset. I get her unstuck and plow cemetery rest of winter no charge. Cemetery yells at me for it. Truth in the saying " no good deed goes unpunished". That doesn't stop me from helping others.
Well done Mike😊
Enjoyed seeing the different gas stations and restaurants.
