People have been left stunned by this 'genius' hack for tying your shoes in less than one second

People have been left stunned by a TikTok video that showcases a "genius" hack for trying your shoes in less than one second. Yes, less than one second.

The simple hack was showcased by user Bugsy Moran, and it's safe to say that this could be a complete game-changer for people who don't have time to waste tying their shoes.

After all, when you're late for work, or maybe even at the gym, the last thing you want to do is get slowed down by the mechanics of your own footwear.

Moran captioned the video: "TIE YOUR SHOES: In less than 1 second."

In the video above, Moran begins by trying his shoes in the way that we've all been doing since we were kids, but it's not long before he seriously shakes things up to result in a very speedy hack (if you're able to get your head around it).

The TikTok user then takes both laces with the bottom three fingers on his hands before moving his right thumb and index finger under the right lace and circling his thumb around the left lace.

He then connects his laces using his right thumb and left index finger to pull them together and voilà! A perfectly tied pair of shoes.

While the process might seem complicated, the video has not gone noticed on TikTok and Yahoo News! reports that the video has been viewed more than 4.5 million times and received heaps of praise in the comments section.
