My mom ran over a steel t-post with a mower once
Not really mowing a lawn but mowing hay the occasional copper head and rabbit nests! Oh and then once my dad was working out in the hay field and a hot air balloon landed behind him. He didn’t realize it was landing behind him and the guy fired the burner and scared the hell out of my dad!
Snake,Bunnies, And Ground bees 🐝!!
I've run over quite a few crazy things, but the winner is a nest of Ground Wasps. It was the first time I had ever been stung by a bee in my life (I was 23 at the time), and I got stung at least 10 times. Sent me to the ER.
