Video: Petrolhead Dad uses muscle car to yank out tooth

Some kids try to get rid of wobbly teeth using a piece of string tied to a door knob. This lad and his petrolhead dad have a more high-octane method.

YouTube user Rob Venomous (probably not his real name) put his Chevrolet Camaro SS and its 6.2-litre engine to rather overpowered use - as a tooth-extractor.

"Tooth pulling never sounded so good," runs the strapline on the video, as the muscle car rips the milk incisor from the brave 8-year-old's gob.

Car fans may agree with the statement, but JOE would suggest that attaching the dentures of a small child to a vehicle that can do 0-60 mph in 3.7 seconds is probably not the best way to go about dental work.
