The “Merovingian Knot”

Now, as we all know, there were no Matrix films beyond the very first one—the other two are just part of an elaborate urban legend and never existed in any way and we will never speak of this again do you understand me let me make this clear there was only one Matrix film la la la fingers in ears. Even still: with this instructional video, I have found my one true tie knot. I am now complete.

From Lifehacker: “If you’re a very sharp-eyed fan of Matrix movie trilogy, you’ll recognize the knot captured below as a rare specimen sported by ‘The Merovingian.’”

EDIT: My favorite quote from the video’s comments: “If he wasn’t in the first film, then the character simply doesn’t exist.”

How genteel. Loves it.
