10.9 spec on 5mm is 8 but that's into steel not aluminum!

I've done destructive testing on 10mm bolts to see what they could take when torqued to vield multiple times. It's a very weird feeling when a bolt stops getting harder to turn it's an even weirder thing to watch the torque value climb up to 90 N·m and them just stay there through the last 45°

Do that 4-5x and a 10.9 10mm bolt will snap in half.
