My mentor was crazy; when I started out, he'd have me hold the breaker bar a few inches from the core support and he'd give the engine a quick turnover via the starter. Bar hits the support, breaks the bolt loose, he'd laugh like a mad scientist, I'd worry about OSHA finding out if the bar flew out and bashed me in the head...No way would I recommend that to anyone but it worked. Crazy old man, he is.

I actually posted this to this thread, but then deleted it, as it is dangerous and there is a chance of breaking the bolt off in the crank if the rotation is wrong.
