Seen this clip before(on this site posted by Merlin?). Dont want to try that though, even with a skroewer-driver! Love my hands and fingers too much. I also cant imagine that this would work right with a properly tensioned belt???

Great Clip
the day i picked up my bus ....about 10km,s from home the battery sliped out ....broke the fan belt and burnt to $h!t on the exhaust ........
didnt want to chance it .... Left the bus on the side of the road got the closes Midas spares for a new fanbelt and battery
with no tools we sliped in the belt with an empty Black Label bottel found under my passanger seat
running well to date .......

That one should definitely be accompanied by the standard TV disclaimer: "Don't try this at home, children."
It may make an impressive stunt, but the chances of losing eyes and digits are pretty good.
