Related pro tip, if you’re changing a flat tire and don’t have any jack stands, place the spare/damaged wheel under the car while you’re working on it. Better to have the car fall on the wheel then potentially your leg
I do this anytime I take a wheel off, even with jack stands. Doesn’t hurt anything and I’ll take anything extra between the chassis and my head I can get.

They really need to print this one on the spare tire.
Why would you be under a vehicle to change a flat? You just sitting at the wheel legs under the car?
If no one told you not to, you wouldn’t know not to.
