...as one of my former co-workers loved to say, there is NO cure for stupid.....
His family will now sue the jack company likely
Instant CAR-ma.................
well,,as,others have said sometimes about criminals, he won’t make that mistake again.
Are the converters being scrapped or resold? What is their value. Asking for a friend.
Sounds like he didn’t work the steps.
Chalk one up for the good guys.
Meth. Not even once!
Number 1 rule is ALWAYS use jack stands when crawling under a car. That is a rule many mechanics insist on. Like you said, wonder if he lingered while dying, knowing he was screwed.
A young life cut off at the age of 50! The money earned from his efforts was to have been used to restart his education in engineering! He could very well have gone on to design a better jack than the one that snuffed out his good life.
Worth a statue, at least. Maybe a 2 or 3 block riot and fire.
Maybe a good samaritan “accidentally” kicked the jackstand aside? Cheers to them!
He would have been better off not bonding out on his December arrest.
Geez, must not have been wearing his Apple watch, or iPhone wasn’t handy. Poverty kills. Also, he forgot the Buddy System.
I have seen a few where they unknowingly cut off a muffler or resonator instead of the cat. Stupid is as…….
I hate having to tow my car, only to find out that a dead guy was trying to steal my catalytic converter.
Ever since I know about this kind of thieves, I realized there will be a lot of jack malfunctionings in the process
Why didn’t he gnaw off his torso like you read about in so many amazing survival stories?
The guys name didn’t happen to be Wile E. Coyote?
another COVID death.....
