I have seen on those car shows where they weld little studs to a bent
panel then use a slide hammer to pull them out. Looks like they have
pretty strong longitudinal strength but not so much sideways, it looks
like he just snapped off those tabs.

I watched that too but skin has a lot more resistance than metal. I imagine
that the part he's welding too is pretty clean...No one weld looks to be
particularly strong, they seem to work only in aggregate. He also pulls on them
pretty slowly, I bet a hard jerk like a slide hammer would break the connection.

I'm amazed that you can do spot welds in a fraction of a second while holding
the tab you're spot welding and letting your hand touch the panel you're welding
it to. Not to mention I can't imagine welding without gloves.
Normally that would seem like a good way to make your hand tingle for a while.
