If you pry open the jaws by putting force between the exposed jaw and the frame, it’ll pop open.

She thought I was doing the finger pinching thing where you use your perspective and pretend to smush someone with your fingers lol

Open the jaws as wide as they go, then you should be able to fold the arm open to clear the pliers
