As a kid/teen, it was my job to catch that bale and neatly stack it in the wagon. My grandpa wouldn’t allow that unstacked mess. And he’d always stop the wagon when I absolutely got wrecked by a heavy bale – enough to get my wind back at least.
YEET . . . . . . . . YEET . . . . . . . . YEET
Used to bail with one of these. Had to be adjusted right, and you could load a lot more with someone stacking.
How often do small animals become part of the bail?
Worst summer job I ever had was standing on that trailer stacking bales while that cursed machine fired them at me.
We called it a kicker.
Bailer I hardly know her
Nice to see how many people here know what a hay baler even is. I still use one but the bales just fall off peacefully.
I was the guy who stacked the bales in the wagon. There was an art and science to it. A proper stack could fit almost 200 bales. 5 across, 3 rows up, then make your way up to the front of the wagon. Then do it all over again from the back. If done well, you could get 2 or 3 rows above the top bars. Tough job. I’d find half snakes in the bales sometimes, freshly chopped in the bailer. Will always love my time spent bailing hay.
The alternative is they get dumped on the ground, picked up, and loaded by hand. About 60 lbs each. Do that hundreds of times, then unload it into the hay loft, I was that guy. Hay slivers, blisters from the string, and broken back.
Idea: someone edit this and add in the M1 Garand PING! sound effect
I have never seen a baler that launched them like that. Seems to me like there would be a lot of torn up bales, but it looks like it’s working fine here.
We had [this cool Ferris wheel type loader](https://youtu.be/4ulKwASnsCs?si=wngiqeTLQKqCXHpJ) that hitched to the side of a 2-ton flatbed truck. One of my earliest memories is when I was probably about 5 years old my Dad would get the truck pointed in the right direction, drop it into granny low, and then I’d steer while he jumped up on the back to stack the bales as they came out of the loader. When we got to the end of a row he’d jump back in and get it turned around for me, and off I’d go again.
It’s probably been 40 years since he has used a square baler at all now. Moved on to round and never looked back.

Buddy of mine lost a finger to a bailer one haying season.
Cool look at a shredded wheat cereal factory.
When you’ve been pent up for 2 weeks.
As a teen, I walked behind the tractor and wagon, picking up bales. Never saw these contraptions.
I want it to launch me.
SEND IT
Been there. Had to stack in order so the 6 or 8 hook lift would pulley them up to the top of barn. Lots of work for couple $$ per hour. Hotter than shit in barn
Is this the farm equivalent of a toaster popping bread ?
Yeet.
I have never seen a baler that launches them out like that. We always had a stacker that would come along after, scoop them up and make neat stacks with the bales.
Well this is a trip down memory lane to my child hood. So much time unloading those hay wagons into the barn up the elevator. Now bale stackers do that work for mpst farmers.
Used to live for this shit.
You don’t know shit about teen farm labor till you have these fuckers flying at your head and you have to catch and stack them neatly. Sadly, this guy is going solo, and unloading that wagon is going to take twice as long due to the randomness.
Building a secret tunnel network with these was awesome.
“Bailer? I hardly know her”
Hay that’s pretty neat
Man I wished I had something like that to run across the floor in my bedroom to pick up all the clothes and package them into nice little bundles.
He’s about to learn why we have the phrase, “make hay while the sun’s shining.”
The ol’ John deere yeet-o-bailer 2000, unparalleled performance.
My hay guy has a baler that feeds into a system that arranges the hay on a lifting mechanism. Then, the hay is raised up to be sacked in cubes of 100 bales. These cubes are then pushed off by the machine into perfect stacks. There is no need to physically handle the bales until they are sold.

How much you want to bet I can toss a hay bale over them mountains?
Farming must have really sucked 100 years ago
Seems like a chill job.

The rotating steel shaft without cover makes me somewhat uncomfortable when I see the involved yeeting power besides the rest it drives.
YEET !

Reminds me of this German meme: https://youtu.be/GzTIZySHPwU
My *Farm Simulator* was much more gentle when stacking hay.
Love the subtle but emphatic caption!
“Whee!”
I was not prepared for the yeet
Yeet!!
This needs to go to r/Damnthatssatisfying
“This bitch full, *YEET* “
But if you bale it wet, some poor butter is going to get sick with moldy hay!
After my father was done bailing, my brother and I would have to go out and gather all the bails and stack them strategically. This made it easier for him and my uncles to load it up on the trailer the next day. I can’t even imagine a 8 and 7 year old doing that now. I learned how to drive at 8 pulling the trailer while my dad and uncles loaded it up.
