How difficult is it to open a Zam-Buk tin?

If you’ve come across a Zam-Buk tin, then you’ve probably struggled with this too. Zam-Buk truly is one of the most difficult containers to open. 

The history of the lip-balm can be traced back to the early 1900s and has been used in various households for a wide range of conditions ever since. Zam-Buk was originally advertised for being effective for treatment of cuts, ulcers, colds, toothache, and even bleeding piles! 

Some of us believe the brand is South African but it turns out, the origins of Zam-Buk can be traced back to New Zealand!

But we love owning the brand, so we'll keep doing so.

A man named Herman Le Roux posted a video on Facebook last week asking the makers of Zam-Buk to please make a “user-friendly” container.

Watch the hilarious video below.

Here's how Mack tried and failed to open the tin.
