How to Open a Beer Bottle With a Dollar Bill
Once perfected, this trick can definitely impress your friends. It can also help you win bets like "So if I can open my beer using only your $20 bill do I get to keep it?" [edit] Steps
Fold the dollar bill in half.
Roll up the dollar bill as taut as you possibly can.- This is what your dollar bill should look like.
Bend the rolled dollar bill in half to maximize the pressure at the bend.
Put it on top of your bent index finger and hold it tightly in place with your thumb, with the bent part sticking out.
Grab the bottle around its neck and push the cap upwards with the bend in the dollar bill until it pops off.
[edit] Tips
- It takes a lot of practice and reasonable arm strength to perform this trick.
- It helps if you use the hand you're holding the bottle with to get leverage by using it as a fulcrum.
- First learn to do this with a Bic lighter, then you'll understand how to use a dollar bill. It's all about using the object as a lever.
