Found a weird trick for unsticking a rusty ATV axle nut

My 2005 Yamaha Kodiak had a rear axle nut that wouldn't budge after sitting for 6 months, tried a breaker bar and even heat but nothing worked. Then I sprayed PB Blaster on it and hit the socket with a dead blow hammer three times fast while pulling the wrench - came right off like magic. Anyone else got a random driveway hack that saved them from spending $100 at the shop?

Tbh the hammer trick is gold, I saved my buddy's quad doing the same thing last month.
