How to start a car with a dead battery

Model: (Various brands) Various
Part: Checks and maintenance

In this video, the youtuber suggests using the system of our fathers to start a car with a flat battery (but not completely drained at 100%) or with a stuck starter motor. It will be very helpful to have a friend or two to give us a hand: the classic push. Turn the key in the ignition, shift into second gear (even though it says first, we definitely recommend second, because first "hangs" too much at the start) and with the door open, push with all the strength we have; when the car has gained some momentum, we quickly jump inside and start the engine: the car will start and we can take it to the nearest mechanic.
