You saved the night for me. Thank you. I used the needle nose pliers method. I broke through in the second stab I made. I could then pinch some metal on the lid and roll the pliers to peal it back plenty. And there's my dinner. I even cooked and ate the soup all from the can. 😋

[@ALinsdau]

Excellent!

[@lowsiento9567]

The struggle is real

[@aceboogie_77]

Had to use the key and a rock method to open a can of peaches lol I felt like a caveman 😂...

[@ALinsdau]

It's surprisingly effective. There is some satisfaction for using the key and rock method.

[@brianwolgamot4606]

a spade drill bit and and tapping tool also work well

[@ALinsdau]

Good idea!

[@CarolineRoso]

This benefited me more that you’ll ever know! Thank you!

[@ALinsdau]

You're welcome

[@snoadog]

I got locked out of my house after bicycling in a downpour and was stuck in my garage with a can of salmon and no opener. Not even close to life and death but damn you helped me open that can up!! Thanks!

[@ALinsdau]

Glad to help!

[@niya1761]

Thank u so much. I just moved and I don't know if my can opener is in a bag somewhere or if I threw it away 😂

[@ALinsdau]

Thank you for watching!

[@linx187]

Forgot one. If you rub the lid on an abrasive surface it rubs off the lip of the metal and the lid will come off

[@ALinsdau]

Nice.

[@smilylaugh_0]

The key and rock one was so EZ thank you

[@ALinsdau]

Thanks for watching!

[@esthersalgado8738]

Amazing thanks

[@Themillennialchristian01]

Thank you now I can eat my canned peaches in my room!! I used scissors ✂️

[@ilovelofe]

THANKS SO MUCH BUT HOW DO YOU USE A CAN OPENER WITH A HUGE CAN

[@ALinsdau]

Should you have one, a regular can opener can open those huge coffee can size cans.

[@eddyvideostar]

@@ALinsdau The food *can makers are changing the shape of their rims* to perplex people. Even at the starting point, sometimes the *cutting tip doesn't even go down to make a connection with the top.* The rims are higher and the tops lower. Are can food makers in *cahoots* with the can-opening industry to sell more openers?

[@leepo007]

Nail clipper technique wasn't clearly visible met either. Most of them aren't clear

[@ALinsdau]

I have individual videos for each item.

Didn't go to waste.

[@ritagreenawalt9286]

What kind of gloves are you wearing? I cannot even pierce a can.

[@STONE69_]

I have used a knife, as he demonstrated and it seems to be the easiest way.

[@CandidZulu]

Wikipedia "By 1820, canned food was a recognized article in Britain and France and by 1822 in the United States.[1] The first cans were robust containers, which weighed more than the food they contained and required ingenuity to open, using whatever tools available. The instruction on those cans read "Cut round the top near the outer edge with a chisel and hammer."[2][3] The gap of decades between the invention of the can and can opener may be attributed to the functionality of existing tools versus the cost and effort of a new tool.[4]"

[@ALinsdau]

Interesting to learn.

[@spellerlittlewing]

But wouldn’t that tin inside the can

[@ALinsdau]

That is a problem for sure.

[@ceknott]

Not explained too fast we can not see the technique nsd explain how to start and we do it 100 times

[@xxxd3kuwu_tv244]

What about shrapnel

[@michealpersicko9531]

what about survival tips are literally quick and dirty ways to do certain tasks without the right tools on hand.

[@ALinsdau]

Something to be mindful about.

[@sistercalhoun4444]

Man we cannot see what you doing

[@ALinsdau]

I had to speed the video up so fast, otherwise it was too long. I'll see if I have the originals and then do a single one-by-one.

[@nildaberano6412]

Not good idea and not clean

[@ALinsdau]

Survival certainly is a messy activity!

[@michealpersicko9531]

I think(and this is just a theory) if someone is searching for alternative ways to open cans i think they are at the point where they care more bout food than picking bits of metal out of their mouths. They don't call it survival of the fittest because it has a nice ring to it ya know.

[@adamdubov7618]

Concur with that. These look like WWIII frontline emergency efforts. You'd have to be sure the utensil is thoroughly clean. And forget about using the can for any later use.
