So hows the stroke victim Hawkeye doing?

Broke 30 bones and is now home doing therapy, amazing, very glad to hear he's alive and hope for the community he'll once again participate.





They can't be this stupid, can't even keep the story straight.

This is the machine below that the sheriffs dept. claims they took in to be investigated for some reason and the detectives don't know the difference.

It was first a PistonBully they have loaded for inspection, why?

Then in the same interview the sheriff claims it's one of these, Sno Cat

Now they claim this is the machine.

Only thing freak accident about it is he lived after being ran over by any of those.

Straight out of a PistonBully manual

Operation Checks Use Safety Technical data Overview
100-11466.en 105/128
The hydrostatic drive brakes the vehicle without causing wear.
You reduce engine speed by easing the pressure on the accel-
erator pedal; engine speed lowers and the change in the
hydraulic ratio causes the vehicle to slow down.
If engine speed falls below the pullaway speed, the electronic
drive control system returns both variable displacement pumps
to the zero position and the PistenBully comes to a standstill.
A parking brake (spring-loaded brake) operated by a parking-
brake lever in the driver's cab acts on the sprockets.



So how Damar Hamlin?

My .02…

A newer Piston Bully doesn’t have safety switches on the doors, whereas a Prinoth does. On the Prinoth, when either door opens, the E-Brake engages automatically & the machine will not move until the E-Brake release button is pressed. On the Piston Bully, the E-Brake engages when you turn the switch on & disengages when you turn it off. Both brands will move via gravity without applying power to the tracks, coasting if you will, if the brake is off.

Let’s just say (w/Prinoth) l used to feel comfortable standing on the tracks draining the bladder with a door open. Not so much with the Piston Bully. ?

I think he exited the Piston Bully?(?) for some reason without applying the E-Brake, then it started to roll & the only way to get into the cab is from on the track, which is now moving, it took him under & most likely the bogies. ?

Thanks, what I found to be really on the bizarre side was why even the law enforcement couldn't get the facts straight. I don't expect the media when it becomes obvious different news channels cut and paste before reading it off but the law to muddle it up and to load up the machine to be investigated.

That's not logical to me

Not to mention 30 plus bones and he's home doing therapy.
