I've been in the same shop for two horrendous mishaps. One was a fully restored 1953 Corvette, the other was a 1960-something Rolls Royce Silver Cloud (bosses' kid did that one).

Holy shit. The one I saw was just some non-descript car of the day. I can't imagine if some rare/mint classic fell of the lift.

Yeah, what up with that? Did they think they could raise it back up with that?

I also like the guy in front.....He's all like "I got it, I got it"

Well, it was a high end restoration/customization shop. I guess it was bound to happen. We got to fix the Vette, bur we never saw the Rolls again. Can't say I blame the guy for not allowing us to touch it after that mess.

Holy fuck that first guy is lucky. He walked to the other side at the right damn time. I may have pooped myself if I were walking under that big ass truck and it started to fall...

Theres also this one. I know for sure this one was on here at some point....

No doubt! I was happy to see the kind of lift with full size running boards you drive up on when I took my truck (1-ton) to have the exhaust done. Especially since I had JUST seen that first video prior to going

A Lotus Elise is an exotic now? Was your Miata a muscle car, too?
