Chuckle. In my longhair hippie scum days (many decades ago), that is how I would rewick candles, or make candles out of odd chunks of wax that followed me home. Prewax the twine to make it stiff, make a hole with the coat hanger, and work the new wick in while it was still all slippery.
(I don't think I have even lit a candle in ten+ years, even a utility candle used as heat source for DIY projects...)
