You got lucky it didn't cost your brother a toe or finger or eye. I'm not trying to be mean, but playing like that is dangerous. The plane could have lifted off, the prop could have thrown a piece at him or you, or God only knows what. Consider yourself lucky that it was just a mechanical loss.
I had the wing off, so it wouldnt take any unplanned flights. The mower rides high and the plane sits a bit low so I dont think this feet where in any real danger.
