Does it work if the shoe doesn't fall off?

The key is to get the wine to push the cork.

Last time I wanted wine in a hotel room, I used the hotel pen and a chair arm rest to push the cork all the way in. Hammer the cork in.

I used the arm rest because it was already broken and came off the chair freely. Any suitable heavy hard thing would work.

Honestly surprised the wall held up

I'm thinking concrete wall, or happened right on the stud. Even so would think the drywall would crack/dent

A buddy is a researcher instead of a surgeon because he damaged the tendons in his hand doing this against a tree and got sliced up.

The goal was to get the wine out of the bottle, I don’t see the problem here.

7 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 0

I had this problem, so i made my own corkscrew! /a/nVh5lTX

Or you could just push the cork into the bottle...

Well the bottle was opened I guess..

Especially if you are a wine bottle

A regular screw and a fork works, but winos just drive the cork into the bottle, since they don't need to close it back.

I tried this once after watching it on Youtube, and I must admit:can confirm.

Having a Swiss Army knife can make you extremely popular at parties. Even if you are only known as the bottle opener haver.

7 years ago | Likes 12 Dislikes 1

Uh.. my Swiss Army knife doesn't have a corkscrew. Has a philips screwdriver instead.

Sommelier knife or bust!

Was that blood from the sliced clean off of both hands at the wrist?

7 years ago | Likes 6 Dislikes 0

Yes, that is exactly what it was.

It was a white wine.

They really need to design an opener of some kind for wine bottles. Something easy, call it a corkscrew or something.

What if you forget it or buy wine on a whim? I've used this shoe method to open a wine several times, it works if you aren't and idiot.

7 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

Using "the shoe method" to open your old grape water that you forgot you'd have to open at some point isn't what I'd call "not an idiot". ;)

7 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 1

That just happens that you forget something. I also said "or buy wine on a whim", which isn't a thing that doesn't happen

College kids don’t buy corkscrews lol. Some friends of mine once opened a wine bottle with a sharpie and a hammer

Our even make screw caps for wine. I'm no expert but apparently our doesn't alter the taste.

7 years ago | Likes 5 Dislikes 0

They do make those but just not for all wines.

Depending on markets and buyer preferences screw caps can be quite frequent.

A screw cap is also called a Stelvin cap

All joking aside, if you don't have an opener...just push the cork into the bottle. Do it in the sink though.

Where were this cpmments when I needed them once I listened to the internet and broke my car key

I tried that on my favourite bottle of wine. Worked at it for over an hour and couldn’t get it to budge. Finally, used screw and pliers.

7 years ago | Likes 3 Dislikes 0

I’ve tried it and it’s never worked for me, the pressure keeps it from moving

This shoe method works at least as good as pushing the cork inside. (Assuming you don't fuck up like the guy in the video)

7 years ago | Likes 4 Dislikes 1

That's a big assumption. Another option is just to drink something other than old grape water.

7 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 2

The one time this has been an issue I just used a regular screw and pulled it out with pliers.

7 years ago | Likes 22 Dislikes 0

Doesn't work very well with softer corks though, I have used the same method with varying success
