Non-obvious solutions

How to take off your T-shirt.

Step-by-step:

1. With your right hand, seize the hem of the outer edge of your left sleeve.
2. As shown in the video, turn it forward so that it is inside your arm. However, in my testing, this step proved to not be necessary.
3. Start bringing your left arm up and pull the sleeve over your elbow at the same time.
4. Continue that motion of your right arm to pull the shirt off your left arm and over your head. Your shirt should now only be on your right arm and in your hand.
5. Let the shirt fall off your right arm. Catch it in your right hand and shake it to keep the sleeves outside-out. (The guy in the video simply throws his shirt to the floor. You could do that instead, depending on the circumstances.)

The video, and several others uploaded by the same YouTube user the YouTube user I previously embedded this video from, appear to have been from a now-defunct website run by Sprint (the wireless carrier) called “Waitless”, which, if the videos and the name are any indication, had much the same purpose as this website. Waitless now simply redirects to Sprint.

Update: I found out that the original videos are still available on YouTube under the account “sprintcuts”, which appears to have been Sprint’s official account for them. The account’s channel is no longer accessible, but the videos are still available and you can find them by searching for “sprintcuts”. I’ve updated the embed to use the official video. Here’s the one I embedded previously.
