Planet Mechanics -- Tractor Tug-Of-War

[jdpower66]

funny how the tractor that lost had bald tyres

[harvey124100]

THAT PROVES FUCK ALL



[joeymdorsey52185]

that guy won't be dancing when that chain pops and cuts him in half....

[bazilisginger]

lmao dick straw bridge is like the uk version of jamie hyneman ftw (Y)

[bazilisginger]

ive met dick hes a good man, and his son, they some times poped into my local to sink a few wets, i lived in fowey him and his son are tywardreath boys personally, hus son james sometimes when hes drunk goes under the pseudonymof james rock and tries doing crappy tricks with coins :( but on the plus side, when he fails at them like he offten does, he buys you a pint and a shot just for taking part

[dirtshower250]

they are difffrent tractors and diffrent drivers u will never know with theses guys

[oisiaa]

I remember Dick from the first season of Junkyard Wars (Scrapheap Challenge). BTW, put those tractors in the dirt! You can break the transmission, differential, or axels on concrete like that.

[ThreadToForget]

Jeez, give these guys a break. They even said it's not a scientific way to prove it. It's for our own entertainment.

[cornandstuff]

If I was the farmer I would not be that happy about what had just happened!! Those poor tractors!

[blastoizdrugi]

poor tractors

[peepeevagi]

It works because it's fuel period. SCIENCE!

The UK is stupid....

[johnb32xq]

thats good for the suspension and the clutch

[spanners9998]

that was the worst tug of war ever but gotta love andy barnes "proper job"!

[3rby]

I was hopping I could find the whole episode

[565Customz]

they put 10 tons of hydrocarbon waste in the atmosphere just doing this proof of concept...lol ironic huh?

[WhyNot632]

Chalk this up as one of the stupidest videos on youtube that proves absolutely nothing.

[racedemon89]

love andy barnes :D anyone know if hes on youtube or summin?

[johanj81]

Stupid stupid stupid test. it has nothing whatso ever to do with engine power. a 1 horsepower engine could have pulled both those tractors if it was heavy enough and had sufficiently low gearbox ratio.

[shazdee]

I wouldn't want to be anywhere near those chains if they broke. The ref could've been cut in half.

[pitman342]

Dickheads!!!!!!!!!

[chssnare09]

thats a good way to make the clutch go out quicker and mess up the tranny and be really hard on the engine

and screw up the drivetrains

[bettafish110]

@chssnare09 soo true and the drive trains arent cheap either thats a nice way to fckin burn a hole in ur wallet but i would have to say john deere tractors can take alot of beating i dont think they would do much harm to the tranny with that much but if they repeat it another 10 times iam sure there gonna have serious damage to the tranny

[AXOR42]

motorların anasını bellediler...

[JohnClassDeere]

NOTHING RUNS LIKE A DEERE!

[31shanks]

they should have a tug-o-war with the tractor and his mustache

[bettafish110]

@31shanks i would feel sad for the tractor those things have to weight a TON

[mirage200800]

[nchayfarmer]

my bossman would kick my goddamn ass for that lol theres only one thing wrong with bio dieasel it gums up over time dont say it dont because i know i man here where i stay that was selling it and he said it himself if I used it id mix it or something

[weirdstuffanimation6]

you have to mix biofuel with regular diesel to stop it gumming up the perfect ratio is about 10 biodiesel to 1 part regular diesel

[nchayfarmer]

yea i know that i think a little bit more studieing into it

[worknsnow345]

I'm going to say it doesn't. If Biodiesel is washed properly, virtually no particulate matter builds up in your engine. Everyone tends to use unwashed, nasty stuff. And mixing it with petroleum diesel to make like a B80 or B50 solution causes even less build up.

[nchayfarmer]

sorry it was the oil from fried foods this guy was using he cleaned it hisself it eat the cylinder heads

[tab1936]

thats not just a farmer thats andy barns from scrapheap fame

[movieaddicted]

I almost didn't recognize him. He's bloody nuts!

[dud3man6969]

That dude is on Junkyard Wars here in the States too.

[domcho101]

oooohhhhhh dick!!! hahaha

i would not be standing there in case it snapped

[phil656565]

Eh it couldnt be that bad its just a couple hundred pounds of chain on the move

[tinsel15]

oh there a hoppin!

[gav838]

yes hes such a legend :D

[thatgirlinthehat]

is that andy as seen on scrapheap challenge as part of The Barley Pickers????
