An 82 year old farmer who lives alone cheated death after being trapped upside down in a combine for 21 hours! It happened just outside of Edmonton. He was going to get his MF 760 combine ready and wanted to get new filters for it. He didn't remember the numbers so climbed up and stuck his head down to get the numbers off the filters. Unfortunately, he kept sliding down into the engine compartment and couldn't get out. His head was in between 2 fan blades. He wasn't dressed for the -8C overnight temperature but figures he went into shock. He'll be in the hospital for about a month suffering from dehydration and hypothermia(sp)and his neighbors will harvest his crop. His son in law found him in the morning and called for help. They had to use the jaws of life to free him and then took him in the air ambulance. He will be retiring from farming and says there should always be two people around just in case. Good advice if you ask me. A good news story for a change. Dave
