The plug will not suddenly fly out immediately, but will gradually begin to come out first, so there is no need to panic ahead of time.
All this happens due to the expansion of air when heated, as a result of which the pressure inside the bottle increases sharply.

    Only after prolonged use did the lighter not go out and continue to burn. They threw her into a snowdrift.

    It is very risky to heat a bottle like this - the neck could easily burst.

      If heated evenly, it will not burst.
