The owner of the aircraft hand propped the engine while another person was holding the tail instead of acting as a safety pilot in the cockpit. The throttle had been left open, so when the engine started the person holding the tail was unable to keep the plane from moving. The aircraft hit a couple of obstacles before it was brought under control.
