We all know how to pack away a sleeping bag don't we?
Yeah, you've got to struggle and put your back into, or more realistically your elbow, and then after what felt like hours - done.
Well, it might sound simple but it's not - unless you work at a sleeping bag factory that is (yes there is a sleeping bag factory, there's a factory for almost anything!).

Taking to X, one user shared with social media just exactly how manufacturers package them - and well, it went viral online and people have said they feel 'cheated'.
Those 'cheated' people are most likely the avid sleeping bag user, not so much sleeping bag enthusiast who went camping with girl or boy scouts and learnt how to roll tuck and squeeze it into the holder.
No, these guys are most likely the ones, like me, who wrestle that sleeping bag after a couple nights away camping - usually after a heavy weekend at a festival while curing a piercing hangover.

Yes, as you're dead on your feet it does seem practically impossible - and then you realize there's a tent you need to somehow cram in what seems like a smaller bag. I digress. Watch it below:
The video shows what looks like two metal crutches rotating on the wall that help wrap the sleeping bag while quite amusingly a factory worker presses their body against it to help squeeze out any air - keeping it tight.
The factory worker then must bag the sleeping bag while it continues to spin, before taking it off.

And just like that it is tightly rolled and compactly packaged away
It certainly clears up a few questions that people may have had about sleeping bags, but it left a handful of people unimpressed, to say the least.
One person took to the platform to say: "Those cheating a** mother f***ers," while another quipped: "These sadistic d***heads know what they’re doing to us."

But as many joked, others stated just how the recording explained so much.
"Soon as I watched two seconds of this video, it all made sense," one user commented.
Someone else added: “Now I know why I need to struggle for ten minutes to get it back into the bag.”
But another joked: “Ten minutes?? Are you some kind of sleeping bag stuffing guru?”

Well, at least you know how 'they' package sleeping bags now I suppose?
