Yikes! I have been working on cars for over 35 years. Last year I had my 69 front wheels nice and snug in their ramps and then used a floor jack under the differential to raise the rear of the car. Much to my horror, the car rolled off of the ramps and into the garage door opening before I could release the floor jack. Luckily both the car and I were OK.
Lesson learned for me. Never jack up the rear of the car if the front wheels are in ramps. I am sure you are careful but but I wanted to share my horror story.
