What to do if there are no openers? Remembering physics and the principle of leverage - this is where the methods of opening a bottle of beer or soda are built. The lever can be built from improvised means. I collected seven of the best ways and divided them by topic: we study, remember and use! BUT at the end of the most patient readers a pleasant bonus awaits.
Lighter or key

Any solid object with a flat and even surface, such as a spoon or coin, is also suitable.
- Take the lighter with your hand so that the lower part of the body protrudes from the side of the thumb.
- With your second hand, grab the bottle as close to the cap as possible.
- We put the angle of the lighter under the cork and click on the top. The hand that holds the vessel serves as a fulcrum for the improvised lever.
- The cap is removed, you can enjoy a drink!
A perfect square hole has been cut in the buckle of a car belt. It works great as an opener, the main thing is not to experiment while the car is moving!
Of the shortcomings, I want to note right away that the keys can bend, and the lighter can be scratched well or even broken.
Second bottle of beer
We place the bottle vertically on the table and firmly press it. With the other hand, we take another container and place the edge of the lid under the edge of the first. Push and open! The same lever principle works, and after a couple of discoveries, experience will be gained, and the process will take several seconds. Just remember - the last tank will remain sealed until next time.
Paper
We take any sheet, newspaper or magazine, tear it out of a notebook. Some beer lovers even open a drink in cash! The leaf is folded as tightly as many times as possible. Then we proceed as in the first method, loosening the lid.
Unfortunately, thick paper is not always available nearby, especially when hiking in the countryside.
About the protrusions
Any wooden ledge is suitable for us: railings, edges of furniture or benches. You only need to focus the lid and pull it down sharply. I do not recommend using metal railing, they easily break glass.
The method is controversial, it is on the verge of vandalism, because the lid often leaves ugly scratches on the tree and spoils the property.
the fire
This method may surprise even a lady; it will not require physical strength, only ingenuity.
- With a lighter fire, we heat the lid for a couple of seconds, it expands from heating and reduces the closing strength.
- Then we return to the first method and the bottom of the lighter we catch the cork.
In case of heating, we save time and effort, so I recommend remembering!
Other unexpected items
We figured out that the main thing in the discovery is compliance with the rule of leverage. I develop the topic further and suggest what else can be used as an opener.
- Belt buckle.
- Men's signet.
- Thin heel (unsterile, but spectacular!).
- Scissors.
- Nippers.
- Knives.
- Hammers.
- A plug from an electric wire (iron, hairdryer or kettle).
- Skate blade.
Always and everywhere, remember to observe safety measures! At the festival, there is absolutely no place for injuries and blood flow after a failed experiment.
Extreme and courage
If you want to surprise your friends, here's what you can do:
- Bite the edges of the cork with your teeth and push up. The method is suitable for owners of very strong molars!
- How to open with an eye? Clamp the neck between the cheek and eyebrow, jerk down.
Accuracy and caution will help to avoid visiting a traumatologist!

And now I want to tell all my favorite readers what to do with the jar on which the ring broke. Each of us had such an unpleasant story when we wanted to drink our favorite drink, but the ring from the tin can remained in our hands, and the container remained sealed. There are some basic tips:
- take a knife and make a puncture in place of the ring;
- we pry off the place of breaking with a knitting needle, nail file, screwdriver or key;
- strongly, strongly press a finger on the place to open the can.
As you can see, the issue is resolved quickly and at ease!
When you open any carbonated drink, foam appears. In order not to get wet and culturally enjoy the process of drinking and communication, I advise you to remember a few rules:
- the drink foams less when it is cold, so do not be lazy to chill or take beer in the store from the refrigerator;
- never shake containers;
- beer should be poured into the glass at a slight angle, so carbon dioxide meets less resistance and raises the drink in a huge froth.
- the glasses must be washed very well, otherwise the detergent will bind carbon dioxide, and the foam will settle almost immediately.
To paraphrase Archimedes, give me a fulcrum, and I will open any container!
