It can work. But he should have taken it out of gear instead of jumping off

Yeah how is stepping on the clutch and/or bumping the stick out of gear easier than jumping off. Any time something has gone awry when I drive my tractors my initial reaction is to press the clutch all the way in.

seems like it still would have worked, given the gif going for maybe 10 more seconds.

Might have better leverage if he backed up, then the front would be pushed down.

You need to run one log underneath the tractor and fix it to both wheels.

I’m glad he had the presence of mind to jump out before it was too late. He wouldn’t have survived that imo.

Isnt that the reason you dig under the tire and put something underneath? Lol.

Break out a few bags of the finest genetically modified canola seed. That oughta give it some traction.

It is funny watching someone do it right and wrong at the same time.

Having grown up driving tractors from 12 yo, there was a complete absence of presence of mind there. As others have said - push the clutch in and it would have solved itself.

What's causing it is that the tractor is rear wheel drive, so the drive in the rear wheels is what's causing it to lift.

Alternatively, reverse out.

Much like going up a steep hill, if you go up forward, most of the weight is at the back and it may raise at the front and flip. Instead, you can reverse up the hill, provided it isn't too steep.

Almost certainly intentional, done for the camera.

Anyone with more than half an hour of tractor driving experience will have had the front wheels come off the ground a few times, and will know to instantly step on the clutch. This fixes the problem right away, every time.

This guy waited until he had the front end lifting, then immediately jumped out without any hesitation. Which means he planned to do just that, instead of declutching.

That would put all the back end weight on the whole front end minus the front tires (because of the hole, the front tires would be floating.)

Edit: lol Guess I was wrong.
