My buddy was helping me change some motor mounts (he is the gearhead of us two). He jacked my 900S up, placed two jackstands at the apropriate points, then shoved another jackstand under the center of the car. Told me, "Just in case one of the stands fail, you won't be crushed- the oilpan may be toast, but you'll be alive."
I'll never forget that. BTW, I changed my motor mounts without any problems!
