Intrepid Twin’s Great Crib Escape Caught on Camera
EmailWhy would you want to stay in your crib for a nap when all the fun is happening outside?
Why would you want to suffer the bumps, bruises and falls of a crib escape when you can just stay put and watch?
Such was the dilemma facing twin brothers. And it was all caught on tape.
The twin brothers were in the crib together for a nap when one twin, Dayne, decided to make a great escape.
Dayne climbs up and over his crib while his brother remains on the lookout, and appears to wonder what exactly his lookalike is doing, and why.
Dayne lands with a thud but, unfazed, and with the resiliency only a toddler trying to evade nap time could have, bounces up and toddles away.
The twins’ mom said she set up a video camera in the twins’ bedroom closet because she could not figure out how Dayne was making his great escape time and time again.
Sure enough, after the mom, identified on YouTube as TheMomof6boys, puts Dayne back in the crib with his brother, he repeats his Houdini-like escape once again. And his twin continues to watch.
On this second try though, Dayne nearly sticks his landing, and heads straight for the camera that just captured how he did it all.
Next up, perhaps, twin toddler beds. Or at least one twin toddler bed, for the one twin anxious to move on.

Mom couldn’t figure out how he was escaping? How stupid is this woman? What did she think… he was crawling through the slats???

Since when do family videos belong in headlines? How is this news? Are there really no more important things happening in the world? Really?

We also has twin boys and we caught them working together by one twin getting on all fours while the other got up on his back to make the great escape.

I’m really not getting why this woman would want everyone to know that she’s stupid. Doesn’t everyone’s child climb out of the crib at some point? I remember when our youngest did it. In the middle of the night, we heard “thump” and then little feet going across the floor. We got up – put the crib mattress on the floor – and that was the last time we had to worry about a crib climber. Everyone goes through it – so why is this a big deal?

WHOA! A toddler escaped from his crib! WOW! This is breaking news. I can’t believe this child did this. He must be a genius.
#sarcasm.

I think this is hilarious! The determination on that boy’s face as he heads right for the camera cracked me up. You know, some of us recognize the importance of having some lighter, entertaining fare in the news – we face the doom-and-gloom war, death and murder news all day long so having a chuckle-break is a healthy moment.
