Only to change or sharpen the blades.

My old yard had a terraced thing similar to that. I almost flipped mine on one occasion doing exactly the same thing - beers may or may not have been involved.

No. However, I once threw a weedeater that almost landed on my neighbor's garage. He asked me if it was an early Christmas present...

not really a flip, more like a tilt? Like an old man settling into a warm bath.

Once made a call on a guy that was doing this on a pond levee. He flipped it and it pinned him in the shallow water. He did not make it.

Not me personally but my pawpaw once did when I was little. After mowing the mower would have to be parked in a little shed. There was a ramp to get it in the door since it was elevated a bit and one time it flipped over as he was bringing it back in. Luckily no one was hurt

poor lawnmower defied gravity for as long as it could.

I think AntiqueTiger might have once. Bought a rusty Sears mower from 1982 for $50 and sold it for $800. But my memory may be fuzzy.

I have steep areas that I just completely said frick it and built into landscaping instead of mowing it. There are some slopes where I wish John Deere mowers had recessed seating or arm rests...

A lady I used to work with rolled her tractor on top of her. She was found hours later. RIP.

Most zero turns come with a ROP and seat belt. This fat frick probably removed his.

Twice actually. Once into a ditch similar to video and the other trying to load into back of truck. Only difference was a lawn tractor vs. a ztr. Embarrassing to say the least. A neighbor help with the ditch incident, truck incident had to crawl out from under. Thankfully no injuries other than pride a bit.
