Jack stands on a dirt floor!!!, really bad idea jack stands need to be on concrete and have lots of weight on them to be safe.
How about we send them some nice clean six by six timbers thats what you want on uneven or soft ground.
I agree the bricks are not great but there alot better than a jack stand on that surface
Just my 0.02 cents
Btw I had a car fall on me using jack stands. The car was stripped down to nothing so no weight to stabilize the jack stands and the positive side, I wasn't injured to bad ( the front end that fell on me probably only weighed about 150Lbs!!
Little advice: Put your vehicle on whatever and before going under push really hard on both ends to make sure it won't move!!
