how exactly do i fix a car dent?

The question you asked is very vague. The dent has to be kind of examined. I try to pull them out the opposite way they were put in. This will lead to less stretched metal. If it requires a hammer to fix it, the softer the blow the better. I lightly tap the metal many times, probably 80 times per minute. Those hits are way better than one hard hit. if the dent is accesible from the back of the panel and it isn't hard to get to, see if you can push it out by hand. Then again, your question wasn't very clear, so I can't help too much. Anyone can do bodywork, as long as they take thier time.
 
some people drill a hole in the dent how do u really fix a dent by drilling a hole under the dent
 
You can "chintz it" by just filling it with bondo as is. To take out dents, drill a very small 1/8 hole, insert a self tapping screw, and pull on the screw with vice grips to remove the dent as best as possible, then fill in the rest. good luck
 
Same as a dent in a fridge, which I described in answer to another question. I'll summarize:

Draw a picture and attach the picture to the car with magnets, positioning it over the dent. The dent is now fixed, as far as anyone can tell.

This is also a great way to add some individuality to what are normally quite dull, monochrome vehicles.
