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.

Let the Architect know that you've discovered a new glitch in the Matrix and hope that Neo shows up in time to save those dishes from the machines.

Smash the glass at the bottom, hold the plates/bowls and move them in a little and carefully open the door. If you smash the glass to the right there's a chance the bowls above the blue ones could fall over. The glass at the bottom is your best bet. Unless you break the one above it and just elevate yourself, arrange and fix the bowls in and slowly open the door. Good luck!!

Slide in a big piece of cardboard. Then have one person reach behind it while the other one keeps pressure on the bowls. You could even tape the card board to the cabinet and cut a hole in it to reach in.

Use a high pressure air blower, test it with something identical in weight and shape (i.e. another plate), set it below and while opening, be ready with 4 other people to help, decide your plates and open up. Catch the plates.

If there is no shelf above, Break the cupboard glass above the shelf/dishes, as it looks like a fairly inexpensive flat sheet of glass to replace. Just reach in and grab dishes at that point, being careful not to open the door from inside.

If its a running door ( it seems running door)then you can open it slowly and grab those plates. If its a pulling door then you can try this one place a bed matress bellow the door and open it, if there is no space bellow the cupboard then pick it little higher with help of couple of man , then give something beneth it to keep higher then follow the steps

Find professor Xavier. Discuss to him the ethical reasons why he should telepathically move the plates with his mind

Tape any opening of the cupboard. Create a small opening on the top shelf, big enough to pour in a concoction of gelatin and water. And you can basically figure out the rest.

There is a very logical way to solve it. 1. Train to become an astronaut. 2. Travel to space. 3. Travel faster than Light around earth for a well calculated amount of time (you do the math here since you are educated) 4. Land on earth 5. Quickly make sure they dont fall.

Sacrify (broke) one glass of the door, to access the plates.
It will be cheaper to change the glass than the plates.

Simply drop the house from space. Its acceleration due to gravity will act to cancel that of the plates - the cupboard door will open but the plates will not fall. On your way down remove plates from cupboard and stack SENSIBLY on the side. Eject from house

The key to resolving disputes within the household often lies in communication and understanding, especially when emotions run high. The challenges a mother faces can sometimes lead to moments of high tension. This is particularly true when unforeseen circumstances, like an earthquake, add additional stress.
If you want to explore how a mother's instinct and decision-making in difficult times are portrayed, consider looking into parenting dynamics amidst challenging situations.
