Another Use for Baby Powder You Probably Hadn't Thought Of

Posted by Karen Murphy

talcum powderI hate baby powder. I hate the way it smells, I hate its...powderiness. I hate it. But did you know it has uses beyond keeping baby butts dry and, uh, powdery?

I know, I know, I can't think of much else either. But this New Mexico woman did: to escape from jail, she piled on six pairs of socks under her leg irons, lubed up her ankles and wrists with cocoa butter, then threw baby powder in to the face of the guard to make her escape.

Creative, wasn't she? You have to hand it to her.

Too bad she only made it about two feet before she was captured.
