I was under the car last night on my creeper. As usual, the creeper wheels got tangled in the trouble light cord and I couldn't move to exactly where I needed to be to undo a bolt. Too lazy to clear the cord from the wheels, again, I just rolled over way over on the creeper to my right, stretched out, got the wrench on the bolt that I needed to remove and gave a mighty yank. At the same time I yanked I heard and felt a "pop" from one of my right ribs. "Crap, I've felt that before, when I broke ribs playing hockey. I couldn't have done it to myself could I?", I said to myself. Sure enough. A broken rib from lying on the creeper's wheel mount (circled in yellow in the picture) and point loading the rib. Who'd a thought that a creeper was dangerous?
