Tractor Overturns and False Teeth Save a Life
A 2 year old Warren County farmer, Robert Surface, was trapped under a 1500 pound tractor after it overturned on a planked crossing. He dug himself out using his false teeth after more than two hours, crawled to his truck, and drove two miles to his home before an ambulance took him to Middletown Hospital with multiple facial injuries. His mother credits the manure loader on the tractor for absorbing the impact.
