Spark Plugs going 100K and worried about them being tight?
Do you get antsy about waiting 100,000 miles to replace plugs because you have concerns of them sticking? Know I do. Replace by CR-V at 87K because of my old school ways. No problems. My 2007 Civic had 107,000 today. All I can say is the only thing easier to change is a B&S lawn motor plug. One snap of my 10" 3/8 drive breaker bar and the plug screws out by hand. Looking at the plugs, more than likely, they would have lasted the life of the motor.

I waited a hell of a lot longer than that to change them (2011), but then again I didn't know much about cars back then. Hey, at least you can have peace of mind, right?
If you think a good mechanic is expensive, try hiring a bad one

100k---pfffft, that's nothing. For as little as these precious metal plugs wear, I'd totally expect a set to outlast the car most of the time, barring unusual oil consumption and fouling.
The only times I can think of having trouble getting them to come out is after the last idiot that replaced them did not get them tight enough.
I disagree. That mower is on the ground, and the ground is too far away for me. I might not be able to get up again.
And I can't ever find any tools around my garage. Everything I own seems to be at work. LOL
