WHOA! I wouldn't get under a car with just a jack. Use jackstands! Never just a jack.

I second that motion. I had a car fall on my head early this year. I working on the front suspension with two jacks holding the front of the car up. I didn't set the jacks (obviously a retard that I shouldn't have trusted did) but for whatever reason, both jacks collapsed. I was rushed to the E.R. but luckily my skull wasn't cracked. The skin on the side of my face/head was all smeared, torn and ripped. Really bloody. The Perimedics and doctors said I was extremely lucky. That taught me what I already knew, that is, to never get under a car with just a jack.
