Had a buddy who got trapped under a stang that way. He used jack stands up front, but propped the backs on bricks. He was lying lengthways on his side under the engine/tranny area. Bricks crumbled, the car hopped, and the front came off the jack stands. He couldn't scream or anything as his lungs were smashed. His brother heard the noise and came out and got the car off. He was very luck that he only had some really bad bruises and maybe some cracked ribs and a dislocated AC joint.

I've been changing tires when those stock cheap-butt scissor jacks let go. Would hate to be under the car.
