This is funny and reminds me of this.
I guy I worked with asked his boss how tight to make a bolt that was down inside a cavity (hard to get at). It was a big one (maybe inch and a half or so). His boss said to get it as tight as you can and then turn it one turn more.
This guy was husky and clever. He found what he needed to turn that bolt another 360%. It broke off.
It was very costly to fix and lesson learned for both of these guys.

Oh man LOL.....there were a few guys at the plant that you just didn't say that to!! They would do their best to screw up a wet dream no matter where they were lol

I was always told to tighten, until it breaks...then back off a half a turn.
Good ol' monkeys!
