Most people only count the visible holes on the front. But if a tear goes all the way through, that means two openings (front and back). It’s like punching a hole in a piece of paper — one cut creates two openings.
Another reason people get tripped up? We don’t usually think of normal shirt openings (neck, sleeves, bottom) as “holes,” even though technically they are.
Did You Get It Right?
If you counted 8 from the start — congratulations, you’ve got sharp eyes! If not, don’t worry — most people miss it the first time.
The fun of this puzzle is in the discussion:
-
Did you only count the visible tears?
-
Did you forget the shirt’s normal openings?
-
Did your answer change the longer you looked?
Final Thought
This little puzzle is proof that sometimes the simplest questions make us think the hardest.
So — how many holes did you see at first? Share it with your friends and keep the great T-shirt debate alive!
