Problem Solving - Cork in Container?

I have to try and get a cork out of a 5 inch wide, 20 inch long container without putting anything inside the container (not even air) or tipping the container over (not even slightly). There cant even be the possiblility of the container getting tipped over. Any ideas? Its an emergency!

Heat the bottle to expand the air inside, thus increasing hte pressure to push the cork out.

Break the bottle. Try tapping it on the palm of your hand and see if it will jump out. Use a short straw and suck on it.
