Donald was a farmer with an obsession for tractors. This started in his childhood and when he had his own farm he bought a tractor every year, amassing a collection of tractors. Before the recession he had every model of Massey Ferguson tractors and after he got married he celebrated by buying a further five tractors. Then the recession came and to keep the tractor factory open, the manufacturers and dealers sharply increased the price of tractors. His wife could stand no more, telling him, 'It's the tractors or me.'
Donald agreed to get therapy to overcome his obsession with tractors but nothing seemed to work until one day a therapist suggested that he sell the farm, move to the city and find another job not connected with tractors. This was seen to be a good idea and so Donald moved with his wife to a large city where he started training as a fireman.
As he was training to be a fireman his marriage improved and he also managed to overcome his obsession with tractors, doing well in his training. Eventually he completed his training and became a proper fireman.
It was on his first shift that a blazing fire broke out in a massive supermarket and all the fire crews were required to attend. This was the biggest supermarket in the city, and shortly before the fire quickly spread through the aisles supermarket staff managed to evacuate all the customers from the store. A crowd gathered along with journalists qas fire crews battled unsuccessfully to contain the fire.
Suddenly without warning Donald pushed past his chief and entered the supermarket without breathing apparatus, running through the smoke and flames to the centre of the fire, before starting to breath in all the flames, smoke and debris from the blaze, extinguishing the blaze before running out to the car park and quickly exhaling everything out into the evening air.
Everyone in the crowd was stunned. 'Donald, how did you manage to do that?' asked his fire chief.
'It was easy,' replied Donald, smiling, 'after all I am an ex-tractor fan.'
