Removing a stuck round with grease

Well that was almost fun to watch. interesting way to get it out for sure.
 
Can someone explain to me how you get a live round stuck in the chamber and not just fire the thing?
What am I missing?

Don’t gauge your reloads and hammer the bolt closed?

New guys and reloading with out a case gauge.
Get to thick neck case and it gets stuck without being able to close the bolt.

I’m pretty sure he didn’t resize it, or didn’t do it right.

Take a fired 223 case and stick it in the chamber of a rifle it wasn’t fired in and let the bolt go home... have fun getting it out. I did it to test a primer once, thought the brass was resized... took a dowel rod to get it out, I beat the Stock on the ground pulling the charging handle for 20 minutes and it wouldn’t come out
 
And a hell of a lot less messy!! Can you imagine having to clean up all of that oil and grease?? Not to mention the expense of the "special" grease gun plus the "adapter".....

Yeah, cleaning grease out of a gun barrel isn't my idea of a good time. I've used a grease gun to remove seized pistons from rusted brake calipers and it works well but you spend some time cleaning up.
 
He said ~$600.

But for a professional gunsmith having a few fittings made for the most common thread patterns wouldn't be a bad thing to have around.
