  • Some stories NEED to be heard....
    Listen to the story of Alistair Sloss and the aftermath of what followed his truly tragic slurry accident from the perspective of his son Jonathan, who at 22 alongside his family, had to pick up the pieces of a broken farmyard

    Must of been very hard to tell the story brave man, if this video can make people be more careful and even save one life it’s worth it

    Great Story There. My shelf found my dad dead from a farm accident when I was 13 years of age. And it’s still hard now being age 47.
    Put great Spirit there in the family.

    Having personally suffered the tragedy of losing a family member in a slurry accident I feel his pain, such a difficult story to tell but that needs to be told. Tears listening to him and hearing the hurt, something that will never ever leave you. Fairplay to him for picking it up and driving it on ❤

    Poor young man, thats heartbreaking. You can hear the emotion and pain in his voice and see it in his face. Hope he's doing well now a few years later

    Its sad not knowing how alister died, if he fell in or was it the gas, jaysus it must wreck his sons head not knowing how his da spent his last moments n what happened. Ive found a loved one dead, my mother actually when i was 10,not getting into details about it but i know exactly how he felt standing there and knowing you cant do anything and that their gone. Truly heartbreaking this. RIP all those lost to slurry gas and all farming accidents. #farmsafe

    Honestly without a word fair play to this lad because it’s truly such a sad story and he really has had big boots to fill. I really do hope that any farmer, young or ild can learn something from this video

    Very good of him to share his story, must have taken true emotional strength. It's good that he has been able to deal with working on the farm everyday despite knowing what happened there, I'm sure lots of people would probably have wanted to get away from it. The video quality was very high too, it was good that it didn't just focus on the incident and showed that things have moved on since then. Deserves more views to be honest.
