One way or another

Hello friends from everywhere !

Today's lesson will be a little bit informal and innapropriate for the wine addicts you are. Maybe you'll think I'm crazy, I'm not very gracefull. But believe me friends, things happen, and YOU have to be prepared. In France we say : "An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure". So today's lesson could be the just in case advice you should keep in your mind and maybe one day you will thank me.

Imagine this day, this terrible day, however it started in a good way : you are with your friends, wanted to share a bottle of our favourite nectar. Not a Grand Cru, not a THRBBGSGW (Terrible High Ruining Bottle But God it's Such a Good Wine). Just a bottle of wine, bought to spend a good moment. But as you want to open it, TRAGEDY, DISASTER, MISADVENTURE !!! Nobody has a bottle-opener (it's time to think about changing your friends, they are baaaad, you can't trust them !). If this day comes, now you will be prepared, because it's possible to open a bottle of wine without a bottle-opener, true story ! You just have to implement the lesson of the day.

1) Take your shoe off

2) Put the bottom of the bottle inside your shoe

3) Hit a (not white) wall with the sole of your shoe

With the pression, the cork will automatically get out of the bottle, after it, you will be able to pull it away and open the bottle !

Good luck friends, and if you experience this kind of opening, please share your videos with us !
