For some reason tying a tie has always been a hassle for me. When I finally do finish tying one, I never seem to get the right length. If someone else is around, I usually end up asking them to do it and act as if I’m in a hurry and too nervous.

But after seeing this video, It looks like I won’t have to make up any more excuses. From this tutorial, I have learned how to easily tie a tie in under 10 seconds.

At first, I wasn’t sure I could do what was presented on the screen. No doubt, whoever made this video has done this countless times before. But I took my time, and no more than 15 minutes later I was tying my tie almost as fast.

Although this trick requires a lot more than 10 seconds to learn, it is possible. For those of you who want to try it at home heed the reminder at the 1:20 mark- “do not pull too much.” That step it essential to the whole trick.
