Use a shoe method: push the bottle neck into the heel of a sturdy shoe on the edge of a table, then tap the shoe gently to drive the cork out
Use a screw and pliers: insert a long screw into the cork, grip the screw with pliers, and pull the cork out slowly
Use a hammer and screwdriver: place a screwdriver on the cork and tap it with a hammer to push the cork into the bottle
Use a foil cutter plus push: remove foil and insert a thin tool (like a butter knife) alongside the cork to loosen, then pull or push out
Use a long rod: push the cork into the bottle with a clean wooden dowel or similar rod
Use a bottle opener leverage: carefully wedge a sturdy bottle opener or similar tool under the cork and lift slowly while rotating the bottle
Use hot water: run hot (not boiling) water over the bottle neck for a few minutes, then pull the cork out with steady pressure
Use a vacuum pump (if available): place the vacuum stopper over the bottle and pull until the cork rises
Use a wine key substitute: if you have a multitool or similar, use the hook and leverage to pull the cork out carefully
Use a corkscrew-less press: use a manual wine bottle opener press tool designed to remove corks without a corkscrew
