People are way too comfortable with getting underneath unsecured loads, especially cars. I feel bad for the kid, but damn, don't get under a car on a slope.
I need to buy some chocks now that you mention it. Parking brakes aren't enough
People are way too comfortable with a lot of dangerous situations. There were two sanitation engineers in my city just a week ago who died trying to replace a pump in a subsurface pumping station (read: one of those big manholes that had a pump inside it). One dude went down to secure a rope around the pump, didn't come back up, his buddy went in to save him, also didn't come out. This is an almost identical event to one that happened 6 years ago in the same city, for the same sanitation department.
