nice pull best ive seen, sorry about the lose of a great driver RIP! looks like the chain driving the weight would have broke before crushing the cage he was in?
no what happened was (btw i was there) that the sledge moved forward broke through the cage and squashed his pelvis against a red hot engine at the the end of a very near full pull.
you can see in this video the weight on the slead is to far forword at half track, he is crushed by the time he stoped in this video,
