When it comes to life-or-death situations, it's tough to say what anyone would do to save their own life.

But what about cutting off a limb?

That's what a local farmer did after getting stuck in farming equipment.
...
"Stepped into the hopper in the little hole. It just sucked my leg in and I was trying to pull it out, but it kept pulling," he said.

There was no one around to help and he knew no one would be there for a long time.

"When it first happened, I remember thinking, 'This ain't good. This is not good at all,'" Kaser said.

He couldn't find his cellphone to call anyone and his was becoming more and more desperate by the minute.

"I thought, 'How long am I going to stay conscious here?' I did know what to expect. I felt it jerk me again and I thought it would grab me and pull me in further," Kaser said.

He was left with only one option.

"I had my pocket knife in my pocket. I said, 'The only way I'm getting out of here is to cut it off,' so I just started sawing at it."
