reminds me of another hill event. Bunch of us haying on a very large hill - one hay wagon - fortunately only partially loaded.

He pulled the pin... ever so slowly the wagon started moving... You could see his panic as he suddenly realized his stupid mistake, but there was no stopping it...
slowly picking up speed - a little faster - a little faster... a LOT faster - FLYING - SCREAMING down the hill..

It was rather spectacular -
there wasn't a dry eye in the house from all the laughter at my poor friends expense.
Had to extricate the wagon from the woods with an excavator.
