A sad story indeed. My jack stands are the same low-cost, made-in-China "ratchet" type... it's very hard for me to imagine that bumping the handle with the ratchet engaged and under load could dislodge it. I wonder if maybe the whole stand was cocked a bit and bumping it knocked it over.
However all things are possible I guess... certainly has me considering buying some better jackstands.
