A MAN has left people in shock after revealing a simple tape hack, that means you will never lose the end again.
Trying to find the end of a piece of sticky tape, can be both mind-numbing and extremely frustrating, with many of us wasting an abundance of time on the laborious task.
However, TikToker Austin Kay has revealed that there is a simple trick which means that you will never struggle to find the end again.
Austin, who works in the film industry, revealed that people in his line of work have a different method for using tape.
He explained that instead of cutting pieces of with scissors, they fold it over and under itself so it forms a triangle.
Then, they place their thumb over the triangle and rip.
He said: “That way, it creates a little tab so we can easily grab you next piece.”
Demonstrating his method, Adam showed how the folded over tab means the end of the tape is extremely easy to locate.
He added that the tab also means that it is really easy to remove the tape from where it is stuck to, as you can just pull it off by the tape.

TikTok users raced to the video’s comment section to share their thoughts on the hack.

A third person said: “I’m a nurse and the amount of time I’ve spent trying to find the end piece of medical tape is insane.
“Thank you for you service!”
A fourth person chimed in: “I’ll be doing this with all tape forever now.”
