I'll do you one better.  I was in one of my back fields and my dozer track 
came loose.  I was putting it back on the pulley when my gloved hand got 
caught between the track and pulley.  I was about 200m from my house (but 
I lived alone back then.)  To make matters worst, the tractor was idling 
and I could reach the kill switch to shut it off. 

If I wasn't able to work my hand out, I guess it would have been a few day 
before anyone found me.
