This really does work. You don't need to hit with both hammers simultaneously though, just hold the large hammer against the opposite side of the piece you're going to hit. When you hit with the small hammer, the mass of the large hammer transfers the blow into the part. It will then bounce and impart a second hit. Works very well to remove large well caps that have rusted for years. And to be honest IMO a BFH weighs 16 lbs. :P Oh and wail away on American Iron, if it breaks it wasn't tough enough...... Not so much on aluminum though.
