Wow, so many close calls. And occasionally we all do hear of the ones who were not so lucky. Lets take a moment be thankful and another moment to remember those who died working their tractors.
The one close call I can remember right now is I am changing the oil on my Camry. Does not require you actually getting under the car, but it is easier if you jack it up a bit to reach under. SO I have it jacked up with the floor jack about 3 of 4 inches. Wheels still on ground. Drop the dam drain plug and it rolls under car. wiggle in under car on my back and 6 yr Mark starts to play with handle on floor jack. Turn my head to the left to tell him stop it and he manages to release the jack. Frame comes down right on my temple and stops. If i had not turned my head my forehead would have had a good dent in it and maybe cracked. Pete
