My body dropped about 3" into the radiator cap. I laid on the garage floor for an hour before I could move again. This was on a Sunday, and the wife needed the Jeep for work on Monday. I still had about 3 hours worth of work to do. I did finish it that day. Paid the price for it too.

I got hit in the back of the head when some hood struts let go at work at the dealer. I felt funky for a week. Guess I had a concussion. LOL From then on out I install my hood strut lock on everything.
