Can you imagine a worse way to go? What are the odds

A 14-year-old hunter apparently fell asleep in a Michigan field before he was run over and killed by a corn chopper, police say.
The boy was dropped off in a field in Chandler Township early Saturday so he could hunt, the Huron County Sheriff’s Office said in a news release. Once he arrived, police believe he may have fallen asleep.
Later, a 25-year-old man showed up to finish harvesting the field with a large corn chopper. The farm worker had no idea anyone was in the field and ran over the teen with the chopper, according to police.
The man quickly spotted the teen and called police. Emergency workers arrived just before 9 a.m.
The teen was pronounced dead at the scene, police said. Officials have not released his name.
The Huron County Medical Examiner’s Office will perform an autopsy in the coming days.
Chandler Township is roughly 130 miles north of Detroit.

Imagine being the person who was operating the machinery. Horrible story all the way around.

My gosh, they weren't cutting corn they were cutting silage. Has anyone ever seen one of those cutters?

Curious what the full story is, it’s Bow season right so was he in a blind on the ground? I’ve slept while hunting plenty but not in the middle of a field and I would think that machinery is pretty damn loud how did he not wake up?

partied too hard the night before, trying to run on little or no sleep, work hard play hard
I know that no one in here has ever done that.

Would have thought he would wake up hearing that machine running?

I’m not making fun of this kid, because it’s horrible. But it did remind me of this clip from James Gregory.

Really bad for the family & friends.

I have ran them before, but it didn’t look like that. It looked like a normal corn header pulled offset from the tractor. You really have to go farther North to run into silage machines.

I was thinking that but he was only 14. If we said a 16+ year old I’d get it. Got damn if a 14 year old was hungover, it might have been the case don’t get me wrong.
Terrible none the less. Still curious if he was in the middle of the field? Most guys hunting are in trees or some other structure the farmers aren’t working. Not all I know but any means.
Dang just terrible though.

Are they unsure of the cause of death?

I was thinking honesty if he was in the middle it’s possible he was dead and the machine ran through him afterward. Would be a good way to hide a death.

It’s pretty important to ensure that he was alive prior to being torn to shreds. Especially since it leaves you wondering why he was just in the middle of a field and how the heck he didn’t wake up and move out of the way.

Does the sound of the chopper not wake your arse up?
