I saw am amazing video on youtube once of a guy using a pulley system with a 45:1 ratio driven by a ride on mower.  He drove the mower across a large lawn a few times reseting the rope each time, but it did eventually pull out a tree stump.

Waaaay back I dropped an alder for my mates dad and tried to burn out the stump.

 

There was copious amounts of red diesel which was only surpassed by the volume of tears.

 

Some of the old timers I used to work with used to blow stumps out of the ground with dynamite, well I think it was dynamite but it is going back a bit. These were stumps in residential areas!
