What happens here

The presenter warns viewers that this step is for testing only and they should only repair existing punctures. Wearing safety glasses, he positions a screwdriver against the sidewall of the UTV tire, which is fully inflated. Using a hammer, he repeatedly strikes the screwdriver until it penetrates the tough tire sidewall, causing air to audibly leak from the newly created hole.

Goal: For demonstration purposes, the presenter intentionally punctures the UTV's rear tire sidewall using a screwdriver and hammer.
