Mischievous toddler helps spring baby brother from crib

There are blocks to be played with! Snacks to be had!

The jailbreak of the century involves two very small children.

Bryan Lanning shared a Nest cam video earlier this week of his toddler son, Oliver, helping his youngest son, Finley, use a chair to escape from his crib.

Why did Oliver do this? Probably because Finley is really busy and doesn't have time to sit in a crib right now. There are blocks to be played with, after all. Bedtime is dumb! Anarchy!

"You can do it!" Oliver says. "Finn, jump to me!" And when Oliver's finally free, the two brothers share a hug.

Why aren't all heist movies like this?
