About Nicopress fittings. This video explains the procedure, tools and verification with a gauge of a correct installation. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jED1HoklilU Note the spacing of the crimps on the sleeve. The photo of “the right cable which didn't fail” is not a correct crimp and is much weaker. In my former life, as a simple yacht merchant, our shop made sailboat rigging. If a nicopress is done right and installed correctly (this is important too), I would say it is not possible to push hard enough with your foot to cause it to fail. If cable flex is occurring at the fitting, all bets are off.
