Holy crap is an understatement! I agree with you Holy sheeeeeeeeettttttttt would be more appropriate!

I guess the one consolation is that it coulda been worse.....sleds come loose in the trailer, truck over turned, polarice hurt, etc.

Good old Super Clamps, eh! Just think what the trailer would like if those clamps came undone? Sure glad you're okay.:beer::beer::beer:

Too bad buddy. Where did it happen?
