Get a wine cork out of a bottle

Published May 27, 2007 by Colin Devroe in Featured

How can you get a wine cork out of a bottle without breaking it? Viddler entr200 has shared a video with us explaining just that.

I would have never guessed that this would work. Now I’ll know for the next time I try really, really hard to get a cork into a wine bottle!

If you would like to suggest a video to be featured on our blog please send me a message, use our forums, or just comment on this post.

    Neat trick…but, really, what’s the point of getting the cork out of an empty bottle? This trick wouldn’t work on a mostly full bottle of wine, which is when most people would want to remove a cork that has fallen in and could potentially ruin the wine. I imagine it would be a pretty messy attempt.

    [...] Your cork fell into the bottle and now you want it out? No need to break the bottle – you can pull it out with a plastic bag and a little ingenuity. Hit the video to see how. Thanks, Antony! [via Viddler Development Blog] [...]

    O MacGyver mandou lembranças aos amantes do vinho…

    Claro que retirar a rolha da garrafa depois de beber todo o vinho só serve se for usar a garrafa, ou, como eu, você faz coleção das rolhas!

    Realmente digno do MacGyver, não é?

    Personally I would just break the bottle…

    I think it might work with a partially full bottle as the cork will already be close enough to the top for the bag to grab it. Worth trying certainly in spite of a little mess.

    gee whiz fellows!
    this excellent trick works with any bottle, full or empty. c’mon!
    if it’s full, just turn the bottle on its side and pour out some liquid in a cup to make room.
    you don’t need to fit a huge bag in there.

    a small balloon could work too.
    thx entr200
