Not all stunts go as planned,
Ian always has staff on hand should anything go wrong.
Whilst attempting to drive his standard
farm tractor on two side wheels, things went horribly wrong.
Ian lost control for a split second and rolled the 8 ton tractor,
resulting in all four wheels in the air and on top of his body.
His head was caught between the fender and the ground, 8 tons
ready to crush his skull.

You can see Ian's head
in the bottom of some of those pictures.
Luckily Ian always has staff nearby
to assist if anything should go wrong. In minutes 12 adults
managed to pull the tractor back onto its wheels Ian was rushed
to hospital.
He escaped with a concussion, cracked
jaw, loose teeth and a few broken ribs. He was back at the
next show to do the same stunt again
When jumping an aeroplane of all things,
the front came down hard and got caught in the ground sending
the monster truck end over end snapping one of the $5000 tyres
off. Ian was unhurt and able to walk away from the crash. These
shots only cover the first few seconds of the crash.
