- My friend pulled this at SUNY@Alfred. He pulled a twist though. He used a
- carpenters hammer to pry the gap larger, THEN he stuffed in pennies. He did
- this at the top and bottom of the door. The next day the RA and the rest of
- the staff COULD NOT open the door. He says it was bowed from the force. (solid
- wood door.) So the RA asks my friend if he can help, since it is well known
- that he has many and varied tools. He gets his hammer, pop, the door is open.
-
- He got the floor jerk, so the rest of the floor thought it was terrific.
