I don't know how, but my mom could open jars better than me when I was a foot taller and much stronger than her. She'd make me move furniture around, and I'd hand her pickle jars.

I find that it's easier to do left-handed, so that all of the torque runs through the fat part of the thumb, rather than trying to grip with that instead.
