Apparently it’s not a good idea to try to dislodge a stubborn wheel-nut on a car’s tyre using a shot gun:
Shooting at the wheel from arm’s length with his 12-gauge shotgun, he was peppered with buckshot and debris.
Sadly, the article doesn’t mention if it worked or not. Enquiring minds need to know!
I found the original source for this story and it doesn’t say. However, it seems it wasn’t in any state to take advantage of it if it had worked.
