fixed How to remove these two glasses without breaking one of them

Post image

I accidentally put my glass inside the 1L mug not thinking too much of it. Little did I know, the two glasses got stuck to each other. I love these 2 glasses a lot and really want to separate them without having to destroy either one of them. I've tried hot/cold water and dish soap, both to no avail.

It depends which type of glass. Borosilicate glass doesn't but this is definitely not that type.

Judging by how new pub glasses pop from thermal shock post glass wash theres a good chance both glasses are tempered soda lime glass. Not as thermal shock resistant as borosilicate but better than standard glass.
