If you've never seen the doc "Pepsi, where's my jet?"...you need to watch it. About a kid that won a harrier jet in one of their competitions.

That’s pretty neat. Interesting that they had a stool for that situation, sounds like it has happened before

Same thought I had, how often does this happen they had to invent this stool for when the front doesn't deploy. I guess there's no issues with the rear they had to invent a cradle for. Sounds like they need a design rework on the front.

Likely they designed the cradle so they can disassemble and service the landing gear?

Don't come in here and ruin my assumptions with logic...
