It is a mystery that has challenged people for eons, or at least since the widespread introduction of the washing machine. It is the case of the missing sock.

But now the conundrum may be solved after a video went viral on social media that claims to have answered the age-old question: Where did my other sock go?

Social media star Megan Norris uploaded the video on Tiktok and showed how her housemate uncovered a secret stash of missing socks in their washing machine.

“You and your roommate finally find where the missing socks keep going,” Norris wrote.

Prying open the front panel of their washing machine, Norris and her friend showed how dozens of missing socks and undergarments had become stuck in this section of the machine.

“At least we’ll never fight about stolen socks again,” she captioned the clip.

Perplexed fans jumped to the comment section and shared their joy and amazement at her discovery.

“HOW do they get there?” one asked.

“So, my house isn’t haunted?” another wondered.

“So they do disappear!” another exclaimed.

“Wow this explains a lot.”

“Ok, so I’m not crazy.”

Others recommended their own solution to the missing sock debacle.

“Use a laundry bag! The little mesh bags are amazing,” one wrote.

“This is why I use mesh bags,” another added.
