I'm sure it was 5th gear that did it but I can't find the video. I'd be making sure I was very happy with how secure my my battery was even behind the back seats.
I tried to find that same video but gave up. My Google Fu is obviously stronger today tho https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wbBahHohHjc
11 mins or so in. It changed the way I transport certain things after I saw the episode I can tell you!
