A 'cataclysmic' mechanical failure.
Have a look here.

What the......???
Was pondering how the hell this could possibly have happened. There's got to be more to this story than what is reported on the farm magazine website.
On close inspection there is a huge trailer on a dolly A frame, and I suspect in this application that it was un-breaked. Judging by the prongs on the top of the bucket ( now dug into the road infront of the tractor ), the guy probably uses this combo for hay carting. The added weight of the trailer would have been the driving force to push the tractor over its bucket like this. The question now is did the bucket accidently dig in to the road or did the driver do it on purpose to stop this lot in a hurry. My supposition of this situation is that the farmer was unbelievably lucky. Without the trailer, the tractor may have followed through and squashed him underneath. Pedr

These are quite smooth and can stand lots of weight and reasonable speed..The bucket would have to abruptly drop ,tines first and a a steep angle to cause such a dilemma..a hydraulic failure or an accidental movement ,for what ever reason,of the bucket angle and height control would be my guess..

I've seen a few tractors break hydraulic lines and drop the bucket but never with anywhere near this kind of result. People just don't seem to catch onto the idea that you should have the bucket curled up at the front so in case of a failure liike this it just skids on the ground and doesn't hurt anything. When those tines penetrate the oiled road surfane at 20 mph with 15000 pounds pushing them you just know you aren't going to be having a good day!
