Car Remotes To Forehead

[Prudie]

What is the science behind the reality that I can stand at my front door and my car remote is too far from my car to open the central locking but if I hold the remote to my temple it will?

Spooky, but not unusual

I presume your body is acting as an aerial.

[EDDIE51]

I didn't believe this until I tried it and it worked.

[Flonska]

Apparently, it also works if you put the fob under your chin:-

[Old_Geezer]

I agree with Hoppy. You're acting like a large transmitting aerial.

The actual answer is magic.

(Also the human body conducts electricity fairly well -- better than air, anyway -- so there's that.)

Either that, Prudie, or you're from Westworld.☺
