There’s no point having shiny paint if the wheels are all covered in dirt. A quick hose and some wheel cleaner will have them 👌

Hmmm 🤔 you got a battery that doesn’t work in the car and one that does, why not just put the one that works in the car??
Dumbest thing I have ever seen
Good way to blow a battery up in your face... If you ever see someone with acid burns to their face you wouldn't do that again.. Use jumper cables, or jump pack..
I like getting stoned also
they have cables for that, you can get them at Walmart, this kids reinventing the wheel
your just now figuring that out? that's how we jumped batteries in the '70s
Wow You're Super????
that battery would throw way bigger of a spark than that this is fake
shouldn't he be getting shocked touching both terminals?
genius
you can also just turn the charged battery upside down and touch the terminals together
Where do these dumb people come from?
Or just use jumper cables. Less dangerous and less heavy
what's more common for a car to have in it... jumper cables/ jump box, or 2 big ass wrenches
the stores sell these things called jumper cables.
hod the wrench together and post what happened
good way to have the battery blow-up in your face.
That's a horrible way to do that. No telling what kind of electronics you could fry.
if the one of the batteries are cracked or leaking it can blow your freaking head off
What a dumb thing to do. Accident waiting to happen.
Supper dangerous, be it rare!
