Is there a video or explanation? I can’t really tell what’s happening here, looks like he’s just dropping the tie rod...

Sorry, I make bad gifs. It made a loud pop and the tie rod, device and socket all flew a foot or more. Lesson learned.

Gotcha. Definitely can disengage... violently.

I bashed the back of my head on the wheel well the first time I separated a ball joint because it startled the hell out of me when it finally broke loose.
Turn, turn, turn, turn, turn, BANG!

38 year old tie rod seal = explosive power of a 30-30 round I’ll bet. Scary! I left the nut on for the driver’s side :-P

At least with an old fashion pickle fork you’re already banging on it so it sort of dampens the magnitude of the POP
