New Year's Eve PSA: How NOT to Open Champagne, Courtesy of 'AFV'
The people at AFV are nothing if not safety conscious. (Seriously — think of all the injuries they’ve witnessed!) So this New Year’s Eve, before you celebrate the arrival of 2016, watch the above montage — appropriately titled “How Not to Pop Champagne Bottles on New Year’s Eve” — for a few handy safety tips.

Honestly, you can probably avoid most of the mishaps above by exercising a modicum of common sense, but perhaps a few things bear repeating: Don’t aim the champagne bottle at your head or anyone else’s; don’t intentionally spray fellow party-goers with champagne foam (unless you want to become a victim of a karma-leveling fall on your behind); don’t shake the bottle before opening; and whatever you do, don’t try the old “open the champagne with a sword” trick — it rarely works, and nobody likes broken glass with their glass of bubbly.
Happy New Year, and party safe, everybody!
AFV airs Sundays at 7 p.m. on ABC.
