I once saw someone running parallel #10 for an amp setup rated for 90 amps....ignoring that the parallel run is wrong it would still only be around 51 amps safe usage, was a friend of a friend who asked me to look at it, he couldn't figure out why the wires kept melting the jacket off.

1:43 My dad did that once in the 90's. Apparently, he was racing a friend, on the highway, at night, in his parents old Ford SUV. His idea was that the engine wasn't very powerful, so on the down hills, he'd just put it into neutral so that gravity would take him faster than the engine could. This was before I was around, so I can't say much about its successful-ness. Plus, the car was an automatic, so it wasn't really meant to shift while moving anyways. So, what basically happened was that he overshot neutral, and accidentally slammed it into reverse while doing at least 90MPH on the highway. The driven wheels (I think rear wheels?) Completely locked up, my dad went "OH SH!T" and shifted back into drive. Supposedly the car was completely fine afterwards, and didn't have any noticeable damage, though my father later suspected that this incident shortened the overall life span of the vehicle.

I shut the engine off, put on the flashers, opened the hood and bent the tip of the remains of the spring to the carburetor with a pair of pliers I had in the car then continued to school.

Almost the same here in the Netherlands. A new car is MOT ( APK in NL) for the first year but after that, a car must be MOTt every year. When something is wrong, you have a week to fix it and come back for the r-check ( free of charge). These garages only do the MOTs. They have 10 points and if a secret check guy from the state comes and notices that the garage is doing wrong, it loses a point. No more points: end of the garage. So, we hardly have vehicles driving around like these in this video. Here is an official video from the Dutch MOT ( RDW is RijksDienst voor het Wegverkeer= State Service of Road Traffic.

Story time: I had a left hand drive mail Jeep. The kind with the sliding doors. It had an automatic transmission with the shift lever on the floor. I was tooling down a gravel road on a summer evening with the door open. Had a K-Bar knife on the floor bouncing towards the open door. Picked up the knife to toss it on the passenger seat and knocked the transmission into reverse. Locked it up, went sideways, and rolled over 1 and 1/4 times, landing on the drivers side. Fortunate that I always wore a seat belt when driving with the door open. This would have been around 1983. That Jeep was a sweet little ride and fun to drive....

There is a certain amount of confirmation bias going on here. Everyone now has a camera in their pocket, and they can publish content that millions of people can see with relative ease. This is the same thing that happens to say police officers. They deal with the worst people all the time, and so they start to see those attributes in general society, even though it's a tiny minority. We watch these on purpose because they are entertaining (and educational), but we have to be careful that just because we see a lot of these on this channel, that this is reflective of all cars on the road. Not saying it's not possible (especially where for some individual freedom is often seen as much more important than the good or safety of the wider community), just that jumping to conclusions based on a self selected data set is probably going to give you the wrong idea.

I remember a few car stereo issues back in the day. The car was a rustbucket and there was an amp in the back. The frame was rusted and the ground was not good. The amp electrons decided the brake lines looked better than the chassis and used that to get to the battery. This contaminated the brake fluid and caused poor performance. There was another where they routed the line under the brake pedal, severely limiting performance.
