Alternate lower ball joint removal for Honda/Acura

I just found this video.  In the past I’ve smacked the lower control arm and have gotten ball joints to release with just a couple of smacks with a large hammer, but this looks to be even easier.  It shows you what the right kind of leverage can do.  When I dig into a suspension refresh on a 2004 Civic soon, I’ll give this a try.
