My can spins counter-clockwise in the northern hemisphere and clockwise in the southern hemisphere.
I tried opening one back when I did the moon landing, but I forgot my can opener at home. But seriously: Right handed hand-turn can-openers usually turn the can counter-clockwise and left handed hand-turn can-openers usually turn the can clockwise. This is due to the crank turning away from the thumb according to human ergonomics. If you use a hand-crank upside-down on the correct end of the can, if you get it to work at all, the can will spin the opposite direction, but the top of the can will come off producing a sharp edge instead of simply removing the lid due to cutting the side of the can instead of the inner edge of the lid. Electric can openers that hold the can for you generally turn the can clockwise if they are a right-handed version due to human ergonomics dictating that it is easier to hold a object in your hand that is spinning toward your thumb. A left handed electric can opener that holds the can for you generally spins the opposite direction in accordance with ergonomics. A hand held can opener that is the non-geared simple lever that simply cuts into the top of the can, the can spins in whatever direction the user punches holes repeatedly around the lip of the lid with. The other end of a hand held can opener that is the lever kind, is rounded instead of sharp and is for popping the top off bottles. ____________________ NIHYFDTTMWTMR |

I think ours turns clockwise. Not sure, though, haven't used it in a while. ____________________ we're currently experiencing some technical difficulties |

i use a big ass fucking knife.
or a really sharp fork. or if i can find it, I usually rotate the can opener clockwise, however that turns out, although sometimes I'll do it the other way, I don't normally give it much thought. ____________________ |

To hell with knives! Real men use a classic can opener, and always go clockwise. ALWAYS. ____________________ |

Well, the poll should have LOTS of other options... or a 'other' option.
Because I don't use a can opener either. I open them with a sledgehammer ____________________ Did you know that, in japanese, 'kinoko' means 'mushroom'?
