This totally works. If you make a mess… You didn’t tap it enough. /s

Pretty sure they showed on Mythbusters that tapping the side of the can is actually much more effective. The reason is that bubbles form all around the edges (and top) of the can and they cause the massive bubbling up when the can opens.

pushes glasses up my nose well actually, flicking the side of the can will work because the carbon dioxide will have space to expand and be reabsorbed.
