Digging up a hedge rather than going over it, lol, hope you not traumatized.

Not much of a roll cage if you ask me.
Looks like it just flopped on it's side and the cage didn't make it roll

Where did you get that from Jon? My brother in law is a contractor and sends his lads on a special course (expensive) to teach them how to do that
with a mini digger 
yours, Pete
I went into the RSPCA office the other day. It was so small you could hardly swing a cat in there.

My ex boss was using one of those at work a few years ago and did the same . Unfortunatly he tried to put his foot out to stop it going over, BIG
mistake!

Looks like the soft ground was your undoing.........
heavy mud in the bucket gets stuck and when you try to loosen it .....
It sinks and the whole rig just flops over.
Watch starting it when you get it upright as the oil can seep past the rings and hydraulic lock it damaging the rods,
Both me and two of my near neighbours have done the same thing.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
We have a heavy clay that works ok when its dry but some rain made it soft and gave it suction from *ell after a little rain.
Very tippy on soft clays
