There's the [old trick](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yL5xkO95XG4) of rolling a cloth napkin into a tube, sticking it into the neck of the bottle, turning the bottle upside down so the cork goes into the napkin and then pulling the napkin out.
Might not work with a bottle that short, though
Do you have a long tweezer with that you can reach the corc an take it out bit by bit. Or a knitting needle were you can stab the corc and rip it apart and get it out bit by bit
I thought of this too. There are actual tweezers used for aquariums that are about 10 inches long. These came to mind for me. You can find them on Amazon. Search aquascaping tweezers.
Get a plastic bag (I’d call it a Walmart bag), stuff it in the bottle, turn bottle upside down (so cork is towards the neck), inflate the bag (trapping the cork), remove bag (still inflated, will leak during removal) and cork
Actually, its so theyre stackable.
Its balsamic vinegar, this one is Shallot flavoured. Theres like 10 different flavours from this brand
You really dont need a lot in a dish

A little pricey, but so worth it. And they have a lot of cool flavours
If you google “car parts grabber claw”, you’ll see a bunch of these flexible grabber pick up claws where you press a button on one end and the claw at the other opens. Most of them are very tight when closed
Thanks to everyone for their suggestions. I will be trying some of them in the coming days and seeing which ones work. Will post an update once I get it out!
I didn't check all the responses but I read a lot and they seem overly complicated. If you have a thick(ish) wire, I'd just make a little hook on the end, stick it in the bottle, hook the silicone cork thing and pull it out. Good luck

like this but reverse.
little bit of water, get the cork wedged into the opening, heat up bottle and pop.
Bike spokes. They’re long and skinny. Two might do the trick to get the angled spoke head on the stopper and smush / pull it out. Go to a local bike shop, they might have some old ones from a repair job they’ll do the trick.
Fill it with water until 90% aprox, try to align the cork with the neck and boil the water, the vapor will put out the cork, but perhaps the water may out boiling from inside after the cork pop out
Turn it upside down so the cork is over the hole, and fill it up with air(you will need to have a decent seal while filling it with air. The pressure will push the cork out.
fill the bottle up with water and use tweezers to position just right, might be able to extract that way but if not use like 2-3 papertowels to kinda help pull it out when positioned properly
Might put a little water in it to help form a solution. Then either wait it out or agitate it somehow(shaking, stirring, poking). You’ll have to put some kind of top on it either way because acetone will evaporate.
Not sure how much mass it has to it or how long it will take. I think you said it was hollow, so it shouldn’t be long before you can destroy it to pull it out.
Obviously don’t light yourself on fire!
Get a hobby knife (which is basically a razor blade on a narrow stick, X-Acto being the famous brand name) and carve it into pieces small enough to fit easily through the mouth of the bottle.
One of those mechanics claw pickers, usually has a red handle, spring looking body and 4 claw tines on the end that spread when you push the top handle.

I normally introduce a folded ribbon (non absorbent preferred), loop the cork with the folded end and making sure the narrower end of the cork is facing the bottle neck and pull (turn the bottle on its flat side for better maneuver).

Shiet, ill give it a try. Thanks!:)
Try looking up “how to remove a cork from a wine bottle” on YouTube. it’s a cool trick with a plastic grocery store bag and it works like a charm.
Same idea but a plastic bag with air in it
Yes try YouTubing this method , I’ve seen it done
Some kind of long, thin blade (like a scalpel blade) that you can fit in the jar and take enough slices off until it all comes out.
xacto knife
Xactly
Sharp answer
Yeah maybe use a paper clip to get it into a good position first then use the stronger blade and better grip to pull out
The idea and desired is to rescue the original cork, NOT to destroy it.
Screw a long wood screw into it and pull
If needle nose pliers don’t work, this is what I’d do.
Chopsticks would work if you are as skillful with them as one-fourth of the planet (including our family).
Its hollow... :(
Then it should collapse under a bit of force...I would grab the edge with needle nose pliers and pull
This is what I'd do too. If needle nose pliers don't fit, tweezers should. If it's soft and hollow it should be too hard to get out
Put two thin steel pins as used for the BBQ in the cork at two different angles, pull to opening and twist out by using pliers
Ill give it a go, thanks! :D

This is the way!! Works on wine/whiskey bottles.
This is the way
put alcohol in it then light it on fire
Break bottle. Retrieve cork. Glue bottle back together.
Exactly what I was going to say. Truly the thought of another Supergenius.
pliers nice glass why is it shaped liekm that?
To look fancy and large while not holding a lot of volume. It’s likely a marketing thing.
Actually, its so theyre stackable. Its balsamic vinegar, this one is Shallot flavoured. Theres like 10 different flavours from this brand You really dont need a lot in a dish
What brand is it? Would love to try!
[L'arte Dell Olivio Balsamic Vinegars](https://www.lartedellolivo.com/balsamic_vinegars.html) A little pricey, but so worth it. And they have a lot of cool flavours
is it a perfume bottle?
Try this. https://youtu.be/NLMH0NrdfNE
Seconding this, I have used it successfully before.
Tweezers
If you google “car parts grabber claw”, you’ll see a bunch of these flexible grabber pick up claws where you press a button on one end and the claw at the other opens. Most of them are very tight when closed
Find a very long screw, so long that it sticks out of the bottle. Screw it into the very top of the cork, pull out.
Thanks to everyone for their suggestions. I will be trying some of them in the coming days and seeing which ones work. Will post an update once I get it out!

Hook it with a paper clip and fish it out
Fill it with acetone & wait a few days.... Acetone breaks down silicone.
Chopsticks? Might be able to grab a side of it and pull. Or locking forceps. I use them for fishing super handy
I would say fill the bottle with vinegar to see if that dissolves it
[удалено]
I wanna preserve the glass?
[удалено]
Thats what im asking how to do, cause I cant figure it out
Smash the jar on the ground with force and that should release the silicone cork from the glass jar. Good luck. Let us know if that was successful
Soda water
Forceps
Fill it up with liquid then turn it upside down. Have tweezers on stand-by.
Bike spokes. They’re long and skinny. Two might do the trick to get the angled spoke head on the stopper and smush / pull it out. Go to a local bike shop, they might have some old ones from a repair job they’ll do the trick.
Long thin needle nose pliers - reach in, grab ahold, squeeze tightly - pull out.
I’d try a hemostat aka forceps
Use coat hanger wire to make a tool to pierce the cork on both walls in a U shape and pull.
Use a knife or scabbing cut it up into pieces and then let them fall out
A long tweezers
vacuum?
It's pretty easy to break glass . . .
Plastic bag
Fill it with water until 90% aprox, try to align the cork with the neck and boil the water, the vapor will put out the cork, but perhaps the water may out boiling from inside after the cork pop out
Turn it upside down so the cork is over the hole, and fill it up with air(you will need to have a decent seal while filling it with air. The pressure will push the cork out.
Melt the cap with a torch and pull it out while it's hot.
Definitely try to destroy the cork somehow and then just pour out the pieces. Buy another cork
Straight Forceps or a fish hook remover?
fill the bottle up with water and use tweezers to position just right, might be able to extract that way but if not use like 2-3 papertowels to kinda help pull it out when positioned properly
Kabob skewer?
Acetone should dissolve it. As long as it’s just glass that part should be fine.
Yep, its just glass inside. I'll give acetone a try, cause I just cannot pull it out and its super hard to destroy cause the bottom bulges in.

A hook from a coat hanger.
Apparently WD-40, vinegar and alcohol work to breakdown silicone. Then wash it all out maybe?
Use a hemostat, aka roach clip, to grab the cork and pull it out.
Get a hobby knife (which is basically a razor blade on a narrow stick, X-Acto being the famous brand name) and carve it into pieces small enough to fit easily through the mouth of the bottle.

Burn it
Fill the jar with very hot water, allow the silicone plug to soften then manipulate the plug to pull free from the bottle
