The zombie apocalypse has arrived, and you’re stuck in your basement. You grabbed a camping potty, a few novels, and several cans of food—but forgot the can opener. Now what?
⚠️ Warning: These methods create sharp, jagged edges. Use extreme caution. Wearing cut-resistant gloves is highly recommended.
1. Open a Can With a Spoon
With a sturdy spoon and strong wrists, you can pierce a can in minutes.
Grip the spoon tightly.
Rub the tip back and forth along the lid’s edge to thin the metal.
Puncture the lid and wedge the spoon around the edge to open it.
You can use the same technique with a screwdriver, butter knife, or similar tool. It takes some effort, but it works.
