This is pure genius. Even when you have a good safe spot to pry you are not prying evenly across one half of the cases. This is an easy and even safer way to get it done.

Clever use of a turnbuckle. Looks like it was time to take a peek inside those cases if the accumulated muck on the outside is any indication.
