Not sure which would be the scariest from the onlookers view. I guess as long as it was not sliding I didn't worry to much. Loaded a dozer and just as it is about to break over to the trailer deck from the ramps it decides to squirm some. Steel on steel does not bode well. had an excavator my brother was working on the drive box leaks in the roller frame with his buddy and owner. You guessed it they got the lines on backwards for one side. So you had to push one and pull one at the same time to go forward or backward. Between thwe time I loaded it and got it to where I was going to unload it. I forgot which way the levers needed to go. Well with no dock you just drive to the end of the trailer set the bucket out in front of you on the ground and retract it as you continue to drive it off the trailer some then let the front end down to the ground and spin around and lift the back up off the deck with the bucket and drive it the rest of the way off and let it down to the ground. That is all well and fine till it spins on the trailer deck to sideways. Now the guys wife and kids watching go inside and don't want to watch. I just turned it with the bucket down on the low side and with it straightened up drove it off on the dirt bank there. There have been others like that. You do what you have to to load out in the middle of nowhere.
