Try drilling them out with a bit that's just smaller in diameter than the rivet

I wouldn't even do it the way that dude on the video does it unless I wanted to possibly damage the original hole. I use a bigger drill bit, like 3/16" or 1/4", and just drill until the top comes off or just deep enough that any roll or burr on the top of the shaft is completely gone. Then use a punch or whatever to push the remaining rivet through.

If you don't care about the rail, I've angle grinded the heads of rivets off. Easier than drilling from my personal experience.
