Freeing my Truck of thick ice from last night's storm using a rubber mallet. ASMR sounds!

After my truck was coating in thick ice I used a rubber mallet to free it. It's like ASMR for the eyes. Filmed with a GoPro 8, you can own your own at amzn.to/3erNx5E
ASMR is a feeling of well-being combined with a tingling sensation in the scalp and down the back of the neck, as experienced by some people in response to a specific gentle stimulus, often a particular sound.
Some posts about this video-
Bost - This is a whole 'another level of satisfying.
Evan Ferguson - Very satisfying to watch!
Haron Hezeki- Lets all accept its soo satisficing
Jain Animesh- Why the hell does this feel so satisfying?
Carla Edwards- When I watched this video my head felt weird, it happens only to me. when I watch something super satisfying my head or neck feels tingly.

Update June 2023. How this all happened.
It's weird how this random video caused so much attention! It wasn't planned it was just spontaneous. We had just suffered the hardest ice storm in recent memory causing power outages for our whole western valley not just our city, Oregon City. With many trees down with many power poles down it was bad bad. One the 4rd day the temperature started raising above freezing which caused the thick coat on my SUV to start to detach from it's body. I needed to use this SUV so started hitting it with my fist which cracked and simply fell to the ground which was sort of cool. I grabbed my GoPro and a rubber hammer and started pounding away. The rest is history!

I like the one where the southern dude poured boiling water over his car doors and his windows exploded. A good ice brush is much safer to use, you can do the same thing but it takes a little more effort and there is no danger of popping your windows which is quite likely to happen when you pound them with a mallet. Next time the weatherman tells you an ice storm is coming throw a tarp over your car it's so much faster and easier.

[@noowanna]

I remember that snowstorm. I live in newberg, and at the time, I worked at a shop thats a 5 minute drive or a 15-minute walk from my house, I came out that Friday morning and there was so much ice and snow on my car I ended up having to walk to work. We got out early because hardly anyone showed up. That weekend, we went out to dinner for my mom's birthday, and I had to scrape off so much ice from my car. Huge sheets about half an inch thick. Good times

[@IceManOregon]

That's 59 degrees considered a nice temp here in Oregon USA, summer here can get as hot as 38.8 Celsius / 102 degs which is hot for us. Winters can get down to -6.66 / 20 degrees which is cold but it only lasts at most two weeks, same for the heat. So this video shows that happens when it rains not snows and it's -6.6 Celsius outside, the rain sticks to everything coating it in a thick coating of ice.
