NGL, I've given up on projects when I can't get a fastener undone.

I'm glad they stuck with it.

Obviously NASA engineers don't ever go to Youtube, I'm sure looking up "asteroid sampler stuck" there would have been a number of hack DIYers who showed a variety of techniques they've used.

Missed opportunity for a NASA first time unboxing video.
