He was deader than a mackrel with blood out his mouth and nose while half under the car on top of him with those cheapo ramps folded sideways.

Look hard at anything that keeps that 3000 lbs. of steel off your chest. Sorry for the rant but this made me remember those pis.

i always set up jack stands or rounds of wood so that if the ramps collapse it will not crush me. and damn man that must of smarted from getting nailed in the face by the breaker bar.
