Subject: Why does proximity of Car Alarms to human body extend their range?

Started as a rumor, I decided to try it on my body.
I took my car's Alarm remote control, and pressed "OPEN my car!" from a distace 
of 10 meters. Nothing. Then, I did the same, but this time, I pointed the 
Remote towards my neck, really close now. "OPEN my car!". VIOLLA! it worked.

My question is Why? why does the human body enhances the transmission from the 
remote control?

Thanks for your effort and good spirit ;-)
