Good video. I had a spring break and safety cable kept it from flying. But what did fly off was the S hook. Pro tip: Be sure to crimp the S hook so it can’t fly off the spring.

Hello Chuck, Thank you for visiting and your tip about crimping the s hooks is a great idea Thank you and I hope you have a great day.

"if these springs ever break..." ;p Safety cables are a good idea for those springs. If someone is inclined, I recommend converting to a torsion system. They are more money, take a little math, and are a bit more challenging to work on, but they are inherently safer and you can upsize the springs for a longer lifespan.
There was a female handyman on youtube who had a nifty method for cutting cables with a cold chisel. I can't remember exactly how she did it, but it worked pretty slick.
There are also a few tie off methods for those cables, but they require at least two open holes next to each other.
