No 5 foot pipe used as a cheater bar after making peace with death?

That's me at step 3 about to get mentally ready to move to step 4 when I get his crazy idea and try to turn in the opposite direction.
Induction bolt heater FTW. Seriously, it's magic to get a bolt glowing red while leaving everything next to it room temperature
In my experience a nice rubber mallet can be useful before having to resort to the “you should have listened” stage.
try giving it the blowtorch as a warning for a couple seconds. that usually scares the screw enough to come loose via normal wrench.
No impact driver? Satisfying and a frustration release.
5 is a bit excessive, cut the bolt head off with 4 then drill and re-tap the threads.
I’m sure the company/client wouldn’t appreciate the hole being all mangled with oxy-acetylene.
Soo, the crank is rated for that huge lever, doesn't break?
