Bullet deflected by underwire bra

Bras. Gotta love 'em. They selflessly sit there, fighting the good fight against gravity, and get nary a note of praise.

But one woman in Detroit better be singing the praises of her over-the-shoulder-boulder-holder, because police say it actually deflected a bullet during a break-in.

Seriously.

The Associated Press reports that three crooks were burglarizing her neighbor's home when the 57-year-old woman heard a commotion and looked out of her window.

One of the bad guys saw her and fired a shot, which smashed through her window pane and into her chest, police said.

But her bra had other plans for the big bad bullet.

Police say the bullet hit the underwire of her bionic brassiere and never even pierced her skin.

Amazing.

Your guard dog better step up his game, cuz there's a new crime-fighting force in town.

Who needs The Untouchables when you have ... Your Unmentionables.
