When I worked for the NPS, we had the largest rear feed Vermeer chipper they made at the time, would do a ~18" diameter log. We had a rep from Vermeer come out and do a training on maintenance and use for the new hires. Dude told a story of an employee that committed suicide in one, emptied his pockets, and jumped in, feet first. 
One of the most disturbing stories I've ever heard.
Everything that goes through one has to fit through those little slots. Heavy spinning flywheel, and a pair of blades, chip stuff into pieces small enough to go through those little openings in the flywheel. What a horrible way to go.

I need more exercise and riding around the neighborhood just doesn't cut it. It's a really cool shot and just goes to show, you don't need purpose built jacked up off road vehicle to actually get out there. You just have to get out there. Awesome. Those guys will carry a bike on anything.
It's from a VW Syncro meet in Colorado. So they actually are jacked up 4WD vehicles 
I did once meet a Buick coming down Engineers Pass near Ouray. Not a SUV crossover Buick, some generic 90's car. It was stuck. The road to that point was fairly easy...but I'm pretty sure there wouldn't have been much left of that car by the time it got to Ouray.

SBF, do you know the point of the cabooses they have at the Western Ave. yard?
I'm on my 2nd Astro/Safari AWD. You just can't beat these things for reliability/durability/versatility.

It's Metra's work train Caboose. METX is Metra's rail designation. They carry workers on them IIRC.
