How To Tie Shoes
Terry MOORE — How To Tie Your Shoes
I’ll just bet you’re tying your shoes wrong… look!
Tie Shoes Correctly
The “Right” Way
You’re tying your shoes wrong – no matter that you’ve been doing it for 70 years and you’ve got it so down pat that you can do it and chew gum at that same time.
Who knew?
The good news? You’re not too old to learn (again) how to tie shoes.
As it turns out, there are two completely different knots, tied with only the most miniscule of differences—one holds and the other does not.
Terry Moore found out he’d been tying his shoes the wrong way his whole life when he complained to a salesman that the laces he’d bought were substandard because they wouldn’t stay tied.
In the spirit of TED, he takes the stage to share a better way. (Historical note: This was the very first 3-minute audience talk given from the TED stage, in 2005.)
If you’re gonna change the way you tie shoes after watching this video, you’ll (I’m almost positive) find that it’s not the “slam dunk” that you first think it is.
Things like this are so in-grained they seem like they’re almost genetic, similar to the migration instinct of birds. In some ways, quitting smoking may be easier.
