The ongoing Covid pandemic really has changed every aspect of our lives.

For many, it has meant staying at home, avoiding in-person meet-ups with friends and family, and working from the supposed comfort of our crib.

I say "supposed comfort" because, let's face it, there are some definite challenges where working away from the office is concerned.

Just think of all the important Zoom meetings that have been video-bombed by children, pets, partners, and housemates. It can be incredibly awkward and by some companies, may be deemed unprofessional.

Well, one guy thinks he has figured out exactly how to put an end to such gaffes.

Check out the not quite full-proof results of his morph suit:

TikTok user @tailoredbits got his hands on a green one-piece suit that supposedly has the effect of making him invisible when he appears in the background of his fiancée's Zoom calls.

"I bought this green morph suit, so I’d stop showing on the back of my fiancee's Zoom meetings," he shared as part of the video.

We're guessing @tailoredbits was hoping the suit would have a similar effect to the invisibility cloak in the Harry Potter movies.

However, it wasn't quite the ingenious invention he thought it would be as he could still very much seen in the background of her Zoom call - albeit slightly faded.

What it did do very well, though, was give the people of TikTok a good ol' chuckle.

After just three days, the video has racked up a phenomenal 31 million views, 6.4 million likes, and over 50,000 comments.

One person shared: "I haven't laughed for 2 years until today, you cured me."

Another wrote: "I knew I still had this app for some kind of good reason. This is the content I needed today omf [I'm] hollering and in tears."

A third chimed in to say: "At least he didn't dance thinking nobody could see him."

And even the official TikTok account of Zoom itself couldn't help but comment on the hilarious video. The video conferencing giant simply wrote: "Buying this brb", to which @tailoredbits responded by asking if he could pitch the company a commercial!
