Saw a guy under a van yesterday evening...PIC

Pulled up at Sheetz on West Broad street yesterday evening and saw this idiot in the parking lot working under a van. He had a bottle jack but it wouldn't hold up the van. It kept coming down rather fast. So he takes out this rim with no tire and sticks it under the hitch. I know you all won't believe me without a picture so here it is. Yes, The wheel is the only thing holding the van up. You can see his feet on the righthand side behind the lady standing up.

Looks like the gene pool could use a little chlorine.

That looks like a fine Virginia jack stand to me!

LOL Yeah, first thing Monday morning he'll be writing people up for not having their safety glasses on!

Pretty ingenious .... if he needs to work on something on the drivers side, he just has the lady shove the car and "roll it" to the right. Saves on effort for the guy underneath . Kinda like a creeper ... only not.

Won't be long until he's a Darwin Award recipient .

AT a quick glance that doesn't look like a woman, and that "creeping puddle" running down hill could be suspect. And yes I have seen several people do that at gas stations. Ohh for an auto paintball gun. But we won't discuss that.
