We've seen lots of videos of people who can't parallel park, but this is worse.  A woman in New Zealand was trying to back her minivan out of a parking spot and couldn't do it.

All she had to do was back straight out, but she couldn't manage it.  The spot was wide though.  So instead of backing out, she did something MUCH harder.

She inched herself forward and back over and over again until she completely turned AROUND in the parking spot.  Then she pulled out headfirst.
