How to start a car with a dead battery without jumper cables

How to start a car with a dead battery without jumper cables

Here's a handy trick: Say you find yourself in the middle of nowhere with a dead battery and no way to roll-start your vehicle. What do you do. If you happen to have enough rope lying around (or belts, for that matter), you can conceivably lift the drive axles, wrap the rope around a tire and pull with all your might with the transmission in gear and the ignition on. The motion should be enough to turn the engine over and start the combustion cycle.
Of course, it's worth noting that the vehicle needs to be properly supported during this whole endeavor, or you could wind up with a runaway hulk in a hurry.
