How do you open the locked hood of a Mercedes with a broken cable?

Model: Mercedes Classe S W222, MK 6 - Years 2013-2020
Part: Body

In this video we see how to open the hood of a Mercedes S-Class that has been in an accident, and therefore has a broken cable and the hood cannot be opened. In reality, the hood lifts slightly on one side, but on the side where it was hit, it does not move. We therefore need a hook, with a handle long enough to reach as far inside as possible; with this we must enter the front to try to reach the cable and then pull it towards us. At that point we can take the handle that comes out of the grille and pull up the entire mask to access the engine compartment.
