A viral TikTok video has revealed a surprising reason behind the disappearance of socks after laundry - they're getting trapped inside washing machines. The video, posted by user @brittanyspurlock627, shows a hidden compartment in the back of the machine containing 28 pairs of socks. This revelation sparked a debate online, with some users expressing disbelief while others shared similar experiences. Many washing machines, especially older models, have tiny gaps or spaces that can trap small items like socks and coins.
If you've been left scratching your head over where your socks vanish after doing the laundry, you may want to investigate your washing machine . A TikTok video posted by user @brittanyspurlock627 has stunned many by exposing the surprising reason behind all those missing socks - and it's not the dryer.
One user expressed surprise, saying, "We've been blaming the dryer all these years when it's been the washer! ? ! ". Another user questioned how this could occur, saying, "How does this actually happen? " Some people were sceptical, with one user stating, "If this was possible, your washing machine would leak water all the time. So impossible.", reports the Mirror.
It appears that the mystery may lie within the washing machine itself. Many washing machines, especially older models, have tiny gaps or spaces in the back or around the drum. The issue isn't just about disappearing socks, but also about objects getting lodged in places where they remain undetected. These are areas we often overlook, which is why they can go unnoticed for extended periods.
