Some vehicle DIY is very risky, advisably to seek appropriate professionals with relevant skills, poweful equipments and proper tools to carry out.

I hope this poor guy caught in this mishap would be blessed with an narrow escape and to live in minor injury.

Probably dead if its those big sand trucks. The bed easily thousands of kilos already. Its not the dangers of DIY but rather the blatant disregard for workplace safety. Even here in Singapore where we are supposedly first world in almost everything, many workshops still dont practice proper safety rules. Ive seen people handling plasma torches for cutting off accident cars with bare hands and no goggles or face shield. Only safety equipment they had on were work boots..... year thats gonna protect that 2000 degree flame from slicing through your body.

It looks like the hydralic damper gave way. Should practice more on workplace safety.

had seen warehouse being suspended when one chinaman was killed by a forklift moving forward.

great highlight bro Fongmy! In fact, even some mechanics ignore the safety... just take oil change for example, may workshop dont even bother to use stands, they simply jack up the car and go to the undercariage.... For me, I always use a spare tyre to act as additional support on top of the jack just in case shits happens.
