Was getting out of the truck yesterday and got a leg hung up in the seat belt slack and to the ground I went. I manage to get my foot out of the belt so I cleared the steps and hit the ground rolling. lol

Was anyone watching? I usually have an audience if I pull a stunt like that.

Taking a digger isn't so bad if you can still get back up. I always have to lay there for a minute do systems check. Decide if need to hit the life alert or use that one spare round I carry. LMAO! Gravity can be a cruel thing.

I am glad you didnt get hurt. Does not always end up that way.

I think it was a test. lol
I’ve been working on staying calm when things “instigate” a not so pleasant response. First thought was get my knife and cut the seatbelt out but that was only for a couple tenths of a second.

I didn't smile at all when I read this.
Some of the worst ranching accidents I've seen have been with equipment , trucks, tractors, etc.
I am glad you are ok, HT. Be careful...even doing the most mundane things. Same here Sharon. I can't remember all the people I've met with as a Chaplain who had falls that decimated their physical health. Young and old. Had a young lady of 23 who was a professional dancer, who slipped, more than fell, down wthe rise in one stair step, and fractured her back so bad she had multiple fractures of her spine, top to bottom. I think 6 fractures total. It was a horrendous life altering "slip." Her finance even got cold feet and backed out after her 3rd surgery and stay in the hospital. Glad you're OK HT. Blessings, Mark
