What happens here

Witness a practical demonstration of the Knipex Pliers Wrench's immense power. A standard steel nail (identified as a 6-penny nail later in the video) is placed between the smooth jaws of the pliers wrench. With a couple of firm squeezes, the demonstrator completely flattens the tip of the nail. Observe the flattened nail, noting the deformation of the metal, and then examine the jaws of the tool to see that they remain perfectly clean and undamaged after this high-stress task.

Goal: Witness the exceptional strength and durability of the pliers wrench.

What they say

Hide

, just insert it into the tip. So if I give it a good squeeze a few times so you can see, it just flattens out completely and then the sponges are perfectly clean. Uh, we call it our pliers wrench. What is it called? Our pliers, wrench. And he did it with the tip of this nail.
