Jack stands don't always work.
When I worked at the Mack dealership, I was working on a fire truck. I had to put new spring saddles in on a recall. I had the fire truck on jack stands and the rear on jack stands.
Somebody backed into the fire truck I was working on and jarred it just enough to knock the jack stand holding up the rear over. Needless to say the rear shifted and the brake chamber was sitting on my chest. The only thing that stopped it from making me a grease spot was the drive shaft was still connected.
I only ended up with some severely bruised ribs, and some stitches in my head. This happened about a month after I was married.
