German Girl Identifies 'Star Wars' Legos With Her Mouth

Filed under: In The News, Weird But True


The next time you're about to stop your child from putting a tiny plastic toy in her mouth, think again -- you might be inhibiting the training of a future TV champion.

Sophia Heesch, 10, went on the German-language TV show "Wetten, dass..?" (or "Wanna, Bet..?") and successfully identified Star Wars Lego figures ... with her mouth. A blindfolded Heesch popped one plastic figure after another in her mouth while the hosts -- one of whom bore a striking resemblance to Willy Wonka -- looked on with rapt attention as the action figure-identifying prodigy did her work ("Prinzessin Leia!").



May the force be with you when this show inevitably ends up in the fall TV lineup.
