Nobody got hurt and it was a slow rollover. My 3 yr old had enough sense to say. "Don't try this at home. EVER!!!" Well I will have to get some practice at building cages.

Yeah it was more of a forced turn he hit a deep rut that some one had made. Then he just bounced up on 2 wheels for a bit then just rolled over.
