OP's technique is cool, but a lot of hassle for a relatively trivial process

I found the bottle technique mesmerising. Who does that??
Suppose it's for when you forgot to do it.
Then I'll have to go find a bottle, or drink something. Cheaper to crack another egg.
I do it with the shell, can do it one handed even.
Well obviously not as it's not actually about cooking. It's a funny video because nobody in their right mind separates an egg like that. If you watched the video you would have realised this.

I just use my hands a a sieve. Far quicker and less fuss that using multiple bowls / instruments IMO.
True.
But if you only have 1 sieve that you want to keep dry for use later...
This bottle trick may be faster if doing multiple yolks. Crack them all onto plate and then pluck the yolks out with the bottle... might give it a try...
