We think it's safe to say that, as a society, we've reached peak Minions. They're everywhere.
EVERYWHERE. There was even talk of Minion tampons at one stage. (No, we're definitely not joking.)
And despite the fact they're cropping on our Facebook and in real life, you're probably sick of them now. One girl, however, has Minions to thank for her life.
A young girl in Colorado Springs, US, fell out of a three-story window and broke her arm whilst carrying a stuffed Minions toy.
It's understood the girl, who hasn't been named, was playing near the window and fell out.
The fall, however, was significantly cushioned by the Minions toy. Police on the scene said that it's likely she would have died without her holding it as he she fell.
"Fortunately, when the child fell out of the window, she continued holding on to a stuffed 'Minion' teddy bear that is believed to have cushioned her fall," explained local police in the official statement.
The girl was then treated in hospital and released.
Amazing. Those insanely annoying yellow tic-tacs actually did something good.
