Can you really unlock a car door using only a tennis ball? Wouldn't that be lovely. We found this YouTube clip about unlocking your power locks by using a tennis ball with a hole burned/cut into it. I have my doubts and couldn't find anything stating it as false (yes, I checked Snopes). To the contrary, when I googled "unlock car doors with tennis ball" I only found more claims for it to be true! So here you go... watch the video clip, but know that we at Ask Patty have not tested this theory (I was not about to add dents to my Acura's door in the name of research, thankyouverymuch), and we don't know if it works.

So now that you've watched it, try it and let us know if it works! Or comment and tell us if you know someone who has done it!
