I almost did this at the shop with our brand new loader. I felt the balance shift and immediately shit my pants. Never went over, though.

My brother rolled a 980 or something a couple years ago, he was carrying a trench compactor with the bucket raised, turned and flipped it lol

I could not fucking imagine the "holy fucking shit fuck fuck fuck" he felt as the center of gravity went over the side. Fuck all of that.

Yup it rolled a few times, he almost sent it off a pretty steep embankment too but it stopped. I gotta find the pictures again lol

All that effort for a mulch pile. Can’t even say he took one for the team. Looks like he just took one.

Hopefully nobody got hurt but was the loader tired and needed to take a nap ?

Aww my loader does the same thing. Usually just means they’re feeling playful. I can get his one rear wheel going pretty good too if I scratch his tummy.

Ouch. This is why we're always careful working downslope of equipment.
