Nothing surprises me nowadays, people are definitely getting stupider. Once upon a time my brother tried removing his fuel tank but forgot to empty it first so when he removed the last bolt ut came down on his chest trapping him under the car, he managed to wriggle it off his chest so he could breathe and reach his phone to call me to come help him, oh how I laughed 😂

That sucks OP. Glad it was an easy fix.

As some of you stated earlier, having worked on many a car as a tech for a living I have seen some crazy sh!t. People never cease to amaze me and I wonder how they have made it through life this far.

I've seen roach infested cars that people drove in, garbage packed cars, etc.
