I thought I'd share and curious to hear other stories.
I was under my jeep replacing my shocks yesterday at 10AM, when the jeep rolled and fell on me. I had the vehicle up on jack-stands on level ground, so I'm not sure how it happened. So it rolled and came down on me, I was on my side when it happened. It pressed me flat to my back, but kept my pelvis locked on its side. I remember just screaming HELP, but I knew everyone in my neighborhood was at work. After thirty seconds, I couldn't scream anymore, so I pushed as hard as I could and managed to get my hips out. The wheel hub than hit the ground. I was still stuck, but it was no longer resting on me. Luckily, the garbage men came by within a few minutes and got it off me. Hospital said I had some bruised ribs and some nasty scrapes on my hip, but I'll be alright. When I was walking out, I remembered thinking "God, I want to get hammered and laid tonight." ...and I did.
