I like them. They appear to be safer than the typical
jack stands. Seems like they would be easy to make
using square steel tubing. Any ideas for improvements?

Cute!

One improvement would be pneumatic bottle in each one to allow them to
lift themselves to top height.

P.S: The guy should have set his emergency brake before making that
lift. Did you see the vehicle rock front to back as he lifted and
dropped the jack? Unsafe!
