And there is the reason for trailer plows instead of anchor plows. You can't get to the hitch to detach the anchor. It takes a lot of pull to get that out as you see him setting there counting the pieces already hoping to put them back together when done.

Needs an excavator. Because there isnt any traction
for the pulling tractor either. A excavator could just
float up near by and pull the stuck rig out with its
hydraulic boom.

Playing Minecraft while driving plowing will obscure the reasoning , i see it didnt interrupt the game ,still playing!

I was just going to make one more pass.

I've dug myself a few holes but nothing
like that.

What ever happen to; When you find yourself in a hole STOP DIGGING.

Why would anyone bury a tractor that far before deciding they need help getting out.

I was moving dead cars in a junk yard with a large end loader. I got into a greasy area and I stopped and got the owner. I knew that if I buried it that there would be second problem. He got on it and managed to get it out and maybe I looked bad for needing
him to do it.

Doesn't it usually take two to get one out?

All it takes to get that far underground is a layer of sod like vegetation over muck. Experience with an area leaves them untilled. Jim

Looks like a well or cistern to the left ? Kevin

i am seeing the same ,,. something caused that big rig to sink ,,. when it did ,, i bet there was no movement forward or back.. around these parts where i grew up ,, you are not stuck as long as you are still moving and have room to maneuver... i had trailer of round bales on the back when it thawed on top. greasey took about 10 acres of soybean stubble to get enough traction to come out of there ,,. never hurt the ground one bit because it was froze down under ..

Not always.

About 10 years back, a former neighbor was discing with a small Case 4wd tractor. The ground LOOKED solid. Not being familiar with such ground conditions, I never would have known this could happen as I had never experienced it before. But the ground let loose under her tractor and it just spun wheels. Nothing to get traction with. Nothing! Just muck underneath what LOOKED to be solid ground. It was just a thin solid crust, like what you'd find on a cream pie.

After seeing what happened and some of the machinery that couldn't get the tractor out, I can now understand how such a thing could happen.

We used to farm a muck field along the river. It had a thin layer of a mat like black muck with white clay underneath. Break through the mat and you went down quick. Dad plowed it with a D2 and a spring hitch JD plow. When disking with the JD B and the trip hitch disk I kept my hand on the trip rope at all times.
