A family home in England was saved from burning down after roly-poly mother Jenny Marseys size 20 underwear was used as a fire blanket.
Son John, 18, was frying bread when the pan caught fire, sending flames up to the ceiling.
Resourceful cousin Darren Lines, 23, grabbed Marseys panties from a pile of laundry, soaked them in water and flung them over the flames.
Marsey, 53, of Hartlepool, Cleveland, said: Im lucky my knickers are like a parachute! If they were skimpy theyd have been no use.

Is that her underwear before or after it was used to put out the fire?

It would be ironic if they were used to put out a bacon fire.

Well, I’ll give her this...she’s a good sport and must have a really good sense of humor! We didn’t need to see the actual panties, though.
