My dad used to own a shop, and one of his employees (who was hired as a favor to a family member) once torqued a rear-wheel hub nut with a 1/2" impact, all the way until the nut wouldn't turn, then put the cotter pin in and put the wheel on.

Shortly after the customer drove away, the axle spindle broke and the wheel and car followed markedly different vectors.
