No, one of them is the "don't accelerate" pedal you use to switch gears.

You're applying acceleration to the gear switcher

Just like I'm applying acceleration to your mom

I think that car has a dead pedal, otherwise that is the fattest clutch pedal I have seen by a longshot.

It could be the handbrake (well, footbrake). If that's the case, it's unusually close to the other pedals.

And way too large, and way too low.

Handbrake pedals are usually small pedals, away from the others and raised so it's uncomfortable to reach them.

Exactly my thinking, looks like a dead pedal not a clutch.

I've never seen a clutch bigger than the brake pedal.
