Damn - I hate that....

Got my quad stuck in the snow - pulling a trailer full of firewood. ( turns out the trailer caught a flat tire. Couldn't see it under all the snow).
Went to get other quad. Got on, set the choke, turned on the ignition, hit the compression release, reared up to kick it through -----
And the engagement pawl didn't catch - resulting in me throwing all my weight on a kicker with zero resistance.
Ever done that??
On a leg that' s been broke twice? And a knee broke once??
I don't recommend it.....
I' m gonna go drink now....
Lots....

No, nothing like that has ever happened to me. But I think my own personal reaction to such an event would be to move.

Nah, but I did manage to throw my bicycle chain while not seated. Right leg crashes to the ground with zero resistance, ACL and anterior meniscus shredded. Total dumbass move.

That's what happens when you got too much muscles.
I don't have an anger problem, I have an idiot problem.
