You know those cars that have a computer chip embedded in the key to allow the car to start? (It works in a similar manner as those work ID badges that unlock the door when passed over the sensor.) Well, a British woman's baby had gotten a hold of her keys and chewed the sensor off the key. She was unable to start her car, until she got the idea to hold the baby against the steering wheel while turning the key. Vrooom. It fired right up.

The BBC quotes a British patrolman accounting the event:

"His mum remembered that Oscar had been sucking at the keys, and when we looked at them, the cover over the transmitter was off and the transmitter wasn't there. It dawned on us that Oscar had probably swallowed it."

"His mum sat in the driver's seat, and put him on her lap with his tummy pressed up against the wheel. We were amazed when she turned the key and the car burst into life."

They'll be more amazed when she turns that soiled diaper into a keychain rather than paying to have a new key made.
