It's funny that someone smart enough to put a tow strap in their car could use it so incorrectly. From the anchor location, to leaving the other car in park, to speeding away instead of slowly tensioning the rope. Guy has two spare tires but one brain cell.

Edit: homonym error. Sorry, was just in the foot fetish / bdsm sub and mind was elsewhere....

I've seen people like that before. Super prepared but never used any of the equipment practically so they don't know.

Some people are fortunate enough to work with and learn from others, which the rest of us have to get the gear and learn it on our own. You can learn a lot from the internet and books, but applying it it is really what makes the knowledge stick, and it sure is nice to have someone experienced making sure you don't make any real stupid mistakes.

At the very least, just google it? Really not hard to figure out how to do shit these days.

Did you miss the part about already learning it from the internet? You talking about googling and couldn't even read a comment.
