So how do you strap yourself to the ground so this doesn't happen?

I can so use that for axle nuts and crank pullies. Seriously.

no kidding... let's see... 4 foot of cheater pipe on a breaker bar to get an axle nut loose... or one of those puppies? Hmmmmm

I have a feeling that would be an excellent tool for the guys that work on 18 wheelers on the side of the interstate though.

I heard it's going to be in the sequel to "No Country For Old Men". The villain is going to use this to kill people by removing whatever nuts they have at the time.
