did this just as he shows on the video and it worked just fine. you don't need to hit it very hard, it just needs to be even across the bottom of the bottle and firm. be patient.
this worked, I tried it with some friends when our corkscrew decided to break... (Broke college kids with a pocket knife screw)... Used a towel and the dorm room wall. Surprisingly, it worked quickly and the wine was still great...
I like your video, and wanted to share it with some friends who were without a corkscrew. I learned this the hard way on a camping trip long ago, and have since used this method a couple of times. I've never broken a bottle doing this.
@RadigundSoul Shouldn't you wrap the bottom of the bottle with the towel? Or the results will end up like RadigundSould said... well I guess it makes sense to wrap the towel around the bottle, when it shatters you don't want to get cut.
Worst background music EVER, Paul Clifton! Still, thanks for the tip, saved my ass at a dinner party when I realized I had no corkscrew and was about to open a bottle!
however there is an better way to open a wine bottle without an opener. Get a string something like white butchers twine. Tie a large knot on the end. Push the cork into the bottle. Push the knotted end of the twine into the bottle untill it goes under the cork, gently pull on the twine untill the cork enters the neck of the bottle straight.and then pull the cork out. This works great with broken corks
I just wanted to point out that this technique will mix all the sediments that are left at the bottom of the bottle, giving the wine an undesirable chunkiness. =)
possible its sending shock waves that compress the air for second pushing the cork but the cork has to be really lose some corks dry out and hard to move
The wine is rapidly being pushed up against the cork, and because the bottle isnt filled up all the way theres enough compressed air to push that up and then you can pull it
With each hit the cork goes out a bit, but because he creates gas inside the bottle by shaking it the cork cant go back. Slowly the cork goes out more and more making it even easier.
All the answers below seem like nonsense to me. For one, the air isn't compressed in a wine bottle since cork breathes a little. Another person refers to the gas created by shaking but wine isn't carbonated. I tend to think it has something to do with the shockwave but I'm not sure if it is sent through the actual glass or through the wine itself. I'd like to hear from a physicist though.
This is hillarious :)) But also pretty effective and clean - no cap pushed inside the bottle, no cutting it into small pieces with a knife - and if you use a really big towel, I think it's pretty safe too.
Did this... Bottle shattered... Cut 2 major arteries in three places, 2 tendons, and 4 main nerves all in my right hand. Very expensive surgery and 6 months of hand therapy. Not recommended.
And finally: The Red metal sculpture behind Paul is a piece of art...but I like the comment about the industrial corkscrew wreckage behind him...I'm STILL laughing! Geesh!
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
The trick is that this bottle of wine had already been opened and is nearly empty. Notice when the cork comes out nothing spills and when Paul pours it that the bottle is almost empty. This is a prepared bottle. I don't drink, but hate hoaxes.
didn't work for me but I was scared to do it hard..neighbor had a corkscrew

That will "bruise" the wine, with the bottle open, it will take around 2 hours for it to recover.
