Dude I constantly think about that any time I'm under a car. I guess it's bad luck to think that, but I have a pretty good reason to be nervous now. Haha. That's some scary stuff though.

Yeah, well fortunately and unfortunately I don't have a lift at my house so unless I drag out the jack and the jackstands I should remain fairly unharmed by my car. Haha

Dang! Never heard of that one before! When I was in HS Auto Shop, our teacher always told us "Use Jack Stands!" One day, this kid is under one of those older heavy F-150 trucks, the jack fails, and the truck literally bounces off the tires. The guy comes sliding out from underneath, he coulda killed himself... Be careful! And watch out for dropping cars, lol. Hope your foot heals real fast :D

Ouch man. Glad you're in good spirits though. Any particular reason explained on why the lift failed?

Well that's the embarrassing part.. Haha the lift didn't fail. I was simply paying attention to what I had to do, and then going home, rather than where my foot was. So it was definitely just human error that this thing happened.
