Cows sleep standing up and lock their knees so they don't fall over. If you are quiet, you can walk right up to a cow that is asleep. One really strong guy, more likely two or three, put their shoulders to the same side of the cow and push. The cow falls over. This usually wakes the cow up, they get upset, the herd gets upset, the rancher gets upset and the kids that caused the problem run off into the night.

For one person, if you block the outside feet with a good sized rock and give the head a good circular twist, they go over like a sack of potatoes . . . but I personally have never done anything like that!
A tipped cow can sustain serious injuries: Sprains on the impact side, organ ruptures, etc. Just think, a cow weighs about 500 lbs, and that much weight falling 4 ft will make a hell of a crash.
If you do tip, be prepared to face the consequences: several loads of 12-gauge from the farmer, for one. Not to mention civil lawsuits, criminal conviction (trespassing, destruction of property), garnishment of wages, etc., etc. It ain't worth it.
