[QUOTE="wby257, post: 263573, member: 1035"] Playing under an old windmill as a kid and a very large beam of wood broke way up there and came down right on my head, knocked me right out! When we live in Oakes just on the south side of town Toby Lemaire had horses and a windmill. Horses are another story. We would climb the windmill and a person on the ground would hold the brake. And we would stick are feet in the bracing and reach up and grab the bracing. Then the guy on the ground holding the brake would turn it loose. When we started hollering they would start applying the brake. I rode that windmill a few 100 times. Never once did I think I would fall. If my kids were to do that I would wrap them in the head. Lot of guts and no brains. [/QUOTE]
