I hear ya. Had an uncle killed on an older Massey long before seat belts/ rollbars. He slid sideways down a snow covered bank. Rolled over with him under it.

My son bush hogging a creek bank and did not know the bank was undercut. Laid his 50 horse Kubota down about 6 ft on its side in the dry creek. Threw him clear and thankfully nothing hurt but his manly pride! Roll bar folded down and of course too manly to need a seatbelt! Boy did I give him hell, and still I get to remind him now and again about how lucky he was ….LOL!!!
Made a believer outta him though,for sure! I sleep a little better now too…..!
