You definitely know about the dark side of this work ! LOL ! I ought to take some photos where I have worked around here, I try to avoid this work when possible, the path I cleared yesterday was not bad, but that one stick could have got me. I like to shred up the tops of small trees, bushes and so on with the mower raised up high, so I like the mower on, but only drawback is turning around, or bumping a tree that could top off or drop something, I'll admit, I've gotten away with a lot doing this, thankfully it was mostly a 1 time thing. I can walk or use an ATV, carry a saw before using the tractor, the initial clearing of perimeters sure was fun though.
A while back I had my old D7 caterpillar running, which has no brush cage, ROPS etc., and I took it down an overgrown path, a slope, which I thought I had cut everything back and so on. Well some piece of a tree I had cut up was still attached to vines or something and the darned thing ended up whacking me directly in the side of the head, enough it could have been a concussion, the darn thing came out of nowhere too and I was creeping along. There is no doubt about the dangers of working in these conditions, and respecting trees, brush, vines and so on LOL !
