lol, just thouht of another one involving oil:
GTR's have a spastic oil filter location, right under the inlet plenum and you need triple jointed arms to get a grip on them. anyway, with a normal car you can take the filter off on the hoist and stick the drain tank under it for a few minutes, but not the GTR cos you can only access it from the top under the bonnet. so you hoist it a foot or so, put a bucket under it where the oil flows then take it off, lift the car drop the sump plug and stick the drain can under it.
ok, so on this day the 40ltr bucket i use was half full of old oil, but i though it wouldnt matter cos' the filter only drops a half a liter or so. so im reaching in twisting, cutting my arm on the razor sharp hose clamps and zip ties finally get the filter off, quickly drop to the floor to check all the oils going in the bucket, "yep, all good" get a phone call, totally distracted, go upstairs do something else. come back to the car 20 or so minutes later "what was i doing again? oh yeah taking the car off the hoist lower the car all the way to the floor with the bucket of 10 or so litres in it still underneath. the bucket crushes with an almighty CRACK. you can guess the rest.
