Years ago, my friend wanted to remove a tree stump from his front garden. All attempts to dig it out had failed. Then he had a brainwave and attached a rope to the front of his company Cortina estate at one end and the stump at the other. He engaged reverse and started to pull the stump with the car.
The good news was that the car was able to overcome the strength of the stump and out it came.
The bad news was that it came out so suddenly he reversed the Cortina into and through his front porch...
It's hard to say who was the most upset about this. He certainly was, his wife possibly more so and as for his employers...
