Here is the very interesting story:

In days of old Russian noble people used to keep monkeys for opening bottles with champagne. It was a very popular amusement to have a monkey opening a bottle with champagne. When a monkey opened a bottle, champagne started splashing under pressure from the bottle. The monkey started screaming and trying to close the bottle with the legs. The monkey was trying to stop champagne splashing, which only made champagne splash more…
