When I was probably 16, I was backing my Farmall M out of the garage at our lake place to do some yard work.. Nothing out of the ordinary, but being it was a 7 foot door, you had to duck to get out and the steering wheel didn't have much room either.

He was stitched back up at the hospital in Alexandria, and the chair he sat in during the procedure is now in a museum in the Alexandria lakes area (I'm told).
