I think this and other videos showing car repairs need to stop being staged nothing ever gose that smoothly when it comes to struts and in fact all car parts

Then you find that piss ant star bolt rounds off its a skirted bolt you can try a punch to try to move it when that does not work you have to take the bonnet off drill down and try an extractor ,when that does not work its the nuclea option = a grinder with a stainless steel cutting disc that will let you get the strut out but the top alloy mounting casting is then scrap because the bolt is jammed in it ,
MB put a coating on the bolts some are red some are blue but at the end of the day you have a metal bolt going into an alloy casting so have to either get a second hand one or buy new !
