For safety's sake, before you hit the starter, you might want to disconnect the ignition coil's center wire, to be absolutely guaranteed the monster doesn't start on you.

The one time I used this breaker-bar method, the car rose up a few inches before the bolt let loose -- but it DID let loose, as advertised.

The rope trick is less violent and more predicable, good for us old folks who feel we have already had surprises enoough to last a lifetime.
