This is a bonkers Red Hot Chili Peppers story.

Earlier this week, James Corden gifted us with the greatest present of all: a 15-minute RHCP "Carpool Karaoke."

It's two things everybody loves in one place: the most loveable British person of all time and the dudes behind the lyrics “giveitawaygiveitawaygiveitaway now.”

Frontman Anthony Kiedis told Radio X host Chris Moyles there was a cut dance-off sequence that was immediately followed by a woman running out of her house screaming her baby wasn't breathing.

Kiedis told Moyles,

We all ran across the street, the woman thrust the baby into my arms, the baby was not breathing and I thought 'I'm gonna try and do a little baby CPR real quick, see if I can get some air in this kid. So I started rubbing the belly, bubbles came out of the mouth, the eyes rolled back into place, the ambulance showed up and I handed the baby over, who was now breathing and fine, and we went back to Carpool Karaoke. When you're a dad, and someone says, 'My baby!' you jog across the street.

Whoa. RHCP, this kind of makes up for The Getaway.
