Is it possible to destroy a 3D printer by moving the axes by hand?

In this video I show if it’s possible to destroy a 3D printer by moving the axes by hand. For this experiment I use my old Anet A8 because that’s the best thing I can do with this printer xD. The reason for this experiment is that I got several comments from people saying that it’s not smart to move your axes by hand because it might destroy your main board. I hope that this video gives a bit of insight about this phenomenon.
