What bunch of wusses! I have spent hundreds of hours under cars held up by nothing but bumper jacks (yes THOSE bumper jacks), rotten logs, clay bricks, broken cinder blocks and one very optimistic time four milk crates and I am still alive with all my limbs intact.

I was just under some jack stands and I felt pretty safe. I think it just comes down to the time it takes to get the car off the ground. That's the only reason I'd get some.

most young people in the present social media landscape care zero about what happens as long as the video has engagement and allows them to monetize the channel, their brand, or whatever else they are promoting, i.e. themselves. whatever. Quote:
plus, a lot of how good/bad this works for you depends entirely on your garage space. |

I don't bother watching the videos to begin with.

I am aware. He's always done this though even with Subi/FTspeed trying to grow his channel. To me it comes off as not genuine, just give me clicks. He used to spam multiple sections with the same video. I don't wish any ill toward him or his future endeavors but his vids are just forum spam to me.

We all did. Then we grew up, made some money, and bought something better, and safer.
