I believe you can decork a wine bottle (eventually) by banging the bottle
base on e.g. the ground.  I saw (and heard :-) this attempted as a student.
I got fed up with the hammering from the kitchen, investigated, and helped
them out with a screwdriver.  The cork had crept out somewhat.  Another
half hour would have done it ...
