Shoutout to whoever invented the breaker bar for stubborn bolts

I used to fight with seized exhaust manifold bolts using just my ratchet and a cheater pipe, wasting 30 minutes on each one down at my buddy's shop in Denver. Then last spring I finally grabbed a 24-inch breaker bar from Harbor Freight for like $15, and it cracked those bolts loose in seconds with way less cussing. Has anyone else made that switch and wondered why they waited so long?

Didn't I used to think a cheater pipe was good enough too?
