I've got a set of Rhino Ramps (the heavy-duty gray ones) and have never had the slightest indication of a problem with them. I've never heard of another failure, though it's possible that it's happened.
Personally, I'm also a belt and suspenders kind of guy when I've got a ton or two suspended above me--I always toss the jackstands under the car . . . just in case.
One of the first things that came to my mind, though, was the possibility that the guy drove past the end, and the ramp broke when his car came crashing down on it. It's a possibility that's raised in that thread.
Thanks for the "heads up." While my faith in Rhino Ramps isn't yet shattered, it's a good reminder to have some redundancy in your safety planning, particularly when it's potentially a matter of life and death.
