Falling over from the weight

Which tomatoes are you growing that are so heavy with tomatoes they are falling over? lol....of course, you can include what "would have fallen over if I did like Antoniette and didn't secure them well enough".

Yesterday my Mule Team fell over at 7' tall and I realized it was loaded with really nice big fruit up high which caused it to topple. What a great producer this plant is of pretty big round tomatoes.

My problem used to be smaller plants with not enough tomatoes on them. Now that I've learned from the best, my problem is that I have to figure out how to secure my plants better!
