Re: battery + bolt stripped/stuck

Most likely it's stuck due to corrosion of the terminal. Try a teaspoon of baking soda in 6-8oz of water and poor it over the cable end (this will disolve the corrosion and neutralize the acid). Once the corrosion is disolved, the vice grips should be able to get the bolt out.
