2) Belt Buckles:
When the going gets tough, the tough don’t buckle under, they buckle up. Begin by removing your belt and fitting an edge of the buckle tightly over the bottle cap. Using your thumb, push up hard on the other edge of the buckle and the cap should pop right off. Don’t forget to put your belt back on afterward, otherwise you could find yourself drinking alone with your pants around your ankles.
3) Bottle on Bottle:
Beers are like hot women: they usually travel in pairs. And that’s a good thing, because the only prop required for the “second-bottle method” of opening a bottle without a bottle opener is another delicious bottle of golden ale. Simply place the cap of one bottle directly under the ridged edge of another bottle’s cap. Jerk down hard on the bottle on top and the cap will pop off instantly.
4) Lighter:
Refer to this 30second video. The man has perfect form that is clearly from years of practice.

5) Napkin or Paper money:
It’s time to put your money where your mouth is -- literally! Simply fold a dollar bill in half and roll it up as tightly as you can until it’s approximately the same width as a large screw. Next, fold it in half again and wedge it under the lid with the rolled bill nestled between your thumb and index finger. Finally, hold onto the neck of the bottle with your non-dominant hand and push up. You’ll be amazed at the force with which the cap will fly across the room. If you open bottles without bottle openers in this way often enough and you start making wagers, you just might be able to start making a profit. Who says you can’t get anything for a dollar anymore?

6) House Key:
Sometimes the key to opening a bottle is using a key. Hold your beer bottle by the neck in your non-dominant hand and place a standard house key under the ridges of the cap in your other. Next, use your key to force out one of the ridges. Repeat this step on the neighboring ridges two to three times until you’ve created a hole large enough to securely wedge your key in. Once your key is in place, push upward and force the cap off, or if it’s loose enough, simply pop it off with your free thumb.
7) Edge of Anything!
The new englander in the video below uses a counter top but almost anything works, I've seen truck beds and desks open twelvers countless times.

Open Bottles.
