Didn't have a chance to look at your video, but try PB Blaster - it's a penetrating lube (like WD40) that works wonders on rusty old bolts. Give it a generous shot of the stuff, and let it soak in - if these bolts are really corroded, give it LOTS of time to soak in (many hours). When you do try to loosen it, make sure you use the right tool for the job - you don't want to slip or round off an already corroded bolt head.
