25 years ago, I was clearing a retention pond in a new subdivision down the street from us for an ice rink. I was using my 8n with a back blade. I started in the center and worked out. When I got about 6' from the edge, I heard the ice start cracking and turned the get off. The rear broke thru and even though the front stayed up, the water was about 1' below the seat.
