10 Basic Household Tasks That Half Of Us Don’t Know How To Do [VIDEO]

The struggle is too real.

A recent survey revealed that one in five people can't change a light bulb. If you think that sounds crazy, a similar percentage applies to people who don't know how to boil an egg.

What's even more revealing is that almost half of the people surveyed admit that they can't change a diaper, and over 60% can't change a flat tire.

The numbers aren't so surprising due to lack of knowledge when it comes to these basic everyday tasks more than it is because of how readily available the information is thanks to the internet. A quick Google search will literally have you mastering these household jobs in no time—and we've done all the hard work for you, so enjoy the videos below.
