This was once presented to me as a kind of proof, though I think it works better as a kind of joke:
To compute ${\partial^n\over\partial x^n}(fg)$, split ${\partial\over\partial x}$ into the sum of a piece $D$ that just acts on $f$ (acting as the identitiy on $g$) and a piece $E$ that just acts on $g$ (acting as the identity on $f$) and write ${\partial^n\over\partial x^n}(fg) = (D+E)^n(fg) = \sum_{i=0}^n \binom{n}{i} D^i E^{n-i}(fg) = \sum_{i=0}^n \binom{n}{i} {\partial^i f\over\partial x^i}{\partial^{n-i} g\over\partial x^{n-i}}$.
