My left foot just hulk smashed into that foot rest thingie on the far left. I turn the car flintstone style and use my shoe to stop my left wheel from it going through the wheel well looking for the clutch.

yea it was more of a step down trying to push the clutch and the edge of my shoe caught a bit of the parking break and caused it to fling up.

felt like metal vs shin and my shin wasn't the winner
