Autoerotic fatalities with power hydraulics.

O'Halloran RL, Dietz PE.

Ventura County Medical Examiner Office, CA.

We report two cases in which men used the hydraulic shovels on tractors to suspend themselves for masochistic sexual stimulation. One man developed a romantic attachment to a tractor, even giving it a name and writing poetry in its honor. He died accidentally while intentionally asphyxiating himself through suspension by the neck, leaving clues that he enjoyed perceptual distortions during asphyxiation. The other man engaged in sexual bondage and transvestic fetishism, but did not purposely asphyxiate himself. He died when accidentally pinned to the ground under a shovel after intentionally suspending himself by the ankles. We compare these cases with other autoerotic fatalities involving perceptual distortion, cross-dressing, machinery, and postural asphyxiation by chest compression.

Hey, synchronicity.

Uh, did I just post that out loud?

Tractor love is nothing to be ashamed of.

Is this article available online? If so, would you be so kind as to provide all us perverts a link? :)

I don't think it's online (at least, I couldn't find it). I did find the abstract though:

This is right out of Hitchhiker's Guide, I swear.

Hitchhiker's Guide had tractor S&M? No wonder it was so popular.

Though I have to say, I probably do have an unhealthy attachment to my powerbook.

Out of respect for "Emily's" privacy, I must regretfully say, "no comment". :>
