Drop whatever you're doing, we have a situation in here! A stay-at-home mother has posted a picture of the 'impossible to open' cupboard and she needs your tips to open it without destroying these precious porcelain plates.
'A cupboard that can never be opened,' - read the caption. Of course, you can never throw words like 'never' online because soon after posting, the army of kind-hearted internauts came pouring in (16,000 reactions and 456 comments) to help this lady with getting her plates to safety.
What would you do in this situation? Post your answers below!
Update: The photo was actually taken after an earthquake in the Tottori Prefecture on October 21st, in a hotel owned by the Kishida family.

My 8 year old says ants can carry thousands of times their own weight. That said, get millions of ants. Drill a small hole into the class. Put ants into a cake piping/icing bag. Slowly (so as not to kill the ants) ice them through the drilled hole. Ask them gently (so as not to kill their spirits) to push the dishes to a level of their choosing. Once they are done, turn the heat up really high to cook them so you don't have to pay for their labor. Vacuum up the bodies.
Throw away vacuum.

Log on to your computer as an administrator, go to Home (your actual home) then from your Control Panel, Click System Restore, choose a restore point when the plates were nicely stacked. Click Next, and then click Finish to confirm your restore point.

Do not try and save the plates—that's impossible. Instead, only try to realize the truth: there are no plates.

Use tape and foam to water tight the cupboard from below. Open the glass panel at the top,and flood the cupboard with water and let everything float to safety.
Bonus: 1) add some detergent to the water to wash the plates while you are at it
2) add in bubble bath solution to make your success picture you post to us more dramatic

Start an auction where people can bid on each individual plate. For each plate that breaks the winning bidder needs to pay that amount to charity.

Place a medium sized jet engine with the exhaust just under the shelf. Find the ideal thrust and open the hatch. The plates should now float around like flying saucers.
Problem solved!👍

Label the plates "millennials" and then say something mean to them. They will be triggered and need to go to a safe place. Done.
