Yes,,, called the widow maker... very versatile, very dangerous. All car makers had to quit making this design of a "tall pole on base" jack as too many lawsuits from deaths. Many states actually mention THIS exact jack in safety bulletins due to the many many accidents and deaths. Due to attaching too high to the body or attachment point, its design makes it very likely to fall over or slip where an "under axle" does not.

You can buy the safety chains or straps to tie it off to the rims, but then, how do you remove the rim its tied to??
