Anyone fancy robbing a house, I can recommend one on Cassata Place.
Assuming a normal or nearly normal family, I'd guess maybe it was nap-time for the kid. When my kids were little, I often napped when they did.

Sleeping in the afternoon is not bizarre or unusual.
Sleeping through ALL THAT NOISE. I'm not saying it's suspicious. But it is unusual.

Watch this: through the front door, up the stairs, through the bedroom, up the street, through the van...nothing but net.

If it was miffbusters, didn't they catch it on film? Not just the after-damage, but don't they like, film stuff, for like, that show they do?

Or did I just myth it?

I would have huge respect for Mythbusters if they aired the segment anyway and put the family on the show and fixed up their house and gave them some money. And explained what went wrong and how they are going to prevent it in the future. In an entertaining but thoughtful way.
