I NEVER get under a car without it being on oversized jack stands AND the wheel/tire combo being under the side I'm under as back up.

As for accidents, I have now TWICE nearly cut off the tip of my left index finger using a thin cutoff disk on an angle grinder. Did it more than 10 years apart so apparently I'm dumber than a stump and don't learn. Well, at least I WAS!!
