  10. corrupteddevil says:

    Wow… I work in a shop, and I’ve never seen anything like that before. It’s always been a fear that it’d happen to me.

    Sucks to be this guy.

    • The Josh Man says:

      When I was at school (went to a tech school for automotive) there was a group who dropped an instructor’s very nice 04 Cobra off the lift, straight on it’s nose. I have never seen an angrier man in all my life. Or more scared students. He eventually just stormed out of the lab, leaving us to just all stand around, mostly gawking at the smashed Ford. We had a sub for the rest of the day. Ah, good times.

  11. Michah says:

    waaahhhhhhhhh

  12. fpage77 says:

    Two words. Law suit. Wait that should be one word. Lawsuit!

    • Lordvetinari says:

      Law – wait for it – suit.

      • Ryannon says:

        I think there is a difference between lawsuit and law suit. One is the suit you wear to court and the other is what you bring against the guy that sold you hot coffee at McD’s and you were stupid enough to pour it down your shirt and burn your moobies and fat belly for eating almost all your meals at McDs. It’s akin to teabag and tea bag. Teabag is a verb, while tea bag is a noun.

  13. .ISO says:

    Merry Christmas

  14. it says:

    Sheldon

    PS no shadow under the rear fender either

    • SANTA says:

      Look, I brought you the See & Say you asked for; please go be a dunce in the privacy of you own room and leave the adults alone.

      PS: They don’t make Dora Panties in your size.

    • Ryannon says:

      Sheldon? What kind of pansy name is that?

      • Hell Hath No Fury says:

        The kind that indicates a guy who has probably never done any physical labor on a vehicle, let alone knows the operations of a mechanic shop.

    • Hell Hath No Fury says:

      Let me type really slow so you don’t hurt yourself trying to read fast. (lol) First, there IS a GIANT shadow under the rear fender. All it needs for you to notice it is a large flashing neon sign, with an arrow. Also, there would NOT be much damage to the passenger side if the obvious happened, which is: the passenger side lift arm/brace/contact pad/ whatever you want to call it was not adjusted far enough under the car, to meet a jack point or the frame. So, while being lifted, it slipped or just wasn’t meeting at all and either dropped the passenger side, not far from the ground, OR lifted the driver’s side without lifting the passenger side at all, and since many mechanics let the lift, well, lift automatically into place, instead of holding the lever and watching, as safety regulations call for, it lifted the driver’s side far enough into the air for it to become severely off-balance and then flip. Kindof like when you’re drunk and lift one foot waaay up high…
      Anyways, it’s not as if it was up 8 feet on the lift and then fell sideways. Therefore, no major side damage. I’ve worked in shops too long to have not seen this before, usually due to an inattentive lift operator who thinks the arms are far enough under the car, and doesn’t check, and not the lift arm breaking *as they told the car owner*.

    • bigbrain28 says:

  26. D.R. says:

  27. Thats a BAD fail. Being a mechanic/shop owner i can tell you its not a welcomed sight. Makes me run in fear.
    *calls insurance company to double check coverage*

    • Your Insurance Company says:

      Because you asked we are going to double your rates. Have a nice holiday.

    • Hell Hath No Fury says:

      If any of my guys did this in my shop, there would be more than one unfortunate ‘accident’ that day. And they know it. Fear>respect lol
