Default Going Overboard

Years ago while working on my Nissan Patrol 4WD up north, I was working underneath it trying to pull the gearbox out and it shifted on the jacks/stands (front) it was on. The whole truck dropped about 2 inches onto large blocks of wood that we had placed under the chassis for "Justin" (justin case).

Since that time, I have always been carefull to the point of going overboard regarding safety when working on cars. Do you have anything that really freaks you out about working on your car?

Today, about to do my diff oil before finding a "tag"

EDIT: Forgot to say I had wheel chocks on the front and rear of the other back tyre

Merging lanes-
Cos its "rare sense". Used to be common, but not anymore

Cleaning wheelie bins-
Cats are good too. Fill to about 20cm with water, add soap and cat. Hold lid firmly closed for two minutes. Be sure to stand well clear when releasing cat.

All Whirlpool gold.
