Sanic that actually something smugglers and cartels do is send kids so they can learn to smuggle and pick up skills which they can put up to work if u played a game called ghost recon wildlands one of the enemies was a adult who did that stuff as a kid ik its game but that is a real thing
@@jsaviourss8049 How factual is this video exactly? I mean, it has 'Humor' in the Channel-Name... But yeah, it's basically pretty obvious - i mean, 'Bomb' is a BIG WORD, that is used to describe a TON of stuff. The Existence of Chemical Bombs truly makes it impossible for current technology stand to detect even nearly anything. There's surely ways to create bombs that have indeed not been discovered yet. And Honestly? Whatever. It was never anything other than the Best Way to ensure Safety to fight the Root. Sadly, most of the world is too stupid to understand that the Terrorists arent the freaking Root but just a Symptom of Earth's Sickness. The fact that the Nations themselves 'produce' Terrorism is not widely known...
My dad had a metal device in his back and so he always gets pulled over and he gets so pissed because they don't believe him when he tells them that. He literally says, "Yes, I'm going to surgically put the bomb in my back and it's going to explode 8 years after being there."
My friend had an accident and his left leg broke so doctors had to surgically attach metal rod with his bone , He always always have double security check everywhere like shopping malls and so...
I remember once when I was seven we were coming home from a trip to Disney and I had brought a light saber back. When we were talking about it with the TSA agent while she was looking through my moms bag (my little brother had some baby formula that triggered the detector) I made a joke about it obviously not being a real light saber, and this lady glared at me, told me to not joke about weapons and had my parents patted down because they genuinely thought that a seven-year-old who likes light sabers was a terrorist...
It wasn’t your comment that caused TSA to pat down your parents. It was the baby formula that caused your parents to get a Pat Down. Explosives are made out of plenty of different kinds of chemicals and explosives. One of which being powder like substances. HENCE the baby formula (which is a powder). The machine that tests the baby powered detects trace amounts of explosives. Not saying that you or your parents had any, it could be a number of different things. To make sure that it isn’t an explosive, your parents got a pat down (you and your brother were not old enough to receive said pat down so neither one of you were chosen).
They're government employees who don't have the skills for a real job, what do we expect? They have a small amount of power that they wield like maniacs.
Fun fact - Japanese swords require a certain way of pulling, otherwise you damage the blade. And replica swords are built dull, so you can't cut people down. Worst you could do is bludgeon them to death.
@@cumguzzler8537 Even if that was true (which it isn't; zweihanders are proper flexible steel and would take a lot of force to break), one trait of the katana's construction is that it's essentially a really elegant iron bar with a sharp edge welded on the front. That's obviously not quite accurate, but it is true that, while a katana's edge is super brittle, the body of the thing is real sturdy and you could definitely use it as a bludgeon if blunt. EDIT: As pointed out by Jona Jo, this isn't quite accurate when it comes to replicas, which apparently use modern forging techniques rather than traditional construction. That said, the overall point still stands; a long metal bar is a dangerous weapon pretty much regardless.
One time I said the words "plane crash" while boarding a plane. It was part of some joke I was telling my mom, and I almost got taken off the plane by some cranky flight attendant just for uttering those words. And I'm only 13 years old.
I have said (in italian) lots of times the words "bomb" and "terrorist" in Italian airports. Nobody seemed to care at all... A friend of mine once even started to talk very loudly about plane crashes and how our corpses would have to be recognised by police while we were in a very busy queue. Still, apart from a couple of terrorised stares from other passengers, nothing happened. I guess it's just Italy.
My friend got stopped by TSA during a school trip to Washington and got patted down. They thought he had Cocaine, but it turned out it was a pack of cool aid LMAO.
My little brother went around the Hawaiian islands collecting sand from different beaches and the TSA stopped him to check to see if ANY of the obviously sediment looking particles were drug related substances. lmao.
Me: Buys drink from Vending machine before TSA Line. TSA: Sir you have to throw away they Mountain Dew. You might be a Super Chemist that can turn water into C4.
I was going on a flight to Washington D.C. during 2018 for a surgery on my esophagus (My throat closes, preventing food from going down) and I was limited to very few foods that had the ability to reach my stomach, which were Chicken and Stars soup, yogurt, cereal, and oatmeal. We stood two hours in Orlando International Airport's lines before making it to TSA screening, they had my two boxes of cereal, and six cans of soup, and a box of oatmeal confiscated, afterward my mother had to undergo a full-body search in the middle of the airport. The search lasted 10 minutes as they kept waving our luggage through the detector. As this was happening, a couple walked up to the TSA checking station to be searched as well, the TSA official asked if there was any liquid substances inside their baggage, to which they answer no. Seconds later, the TSA official begins pulling large bottles of champagne and other liquors from their bag. They removed either 7-8 bottles from that couples luggage, and as the TSA were finishing up violating my mother's privacy, we witnessed the couple infront of us being allowed to keep their many bottles of alcohol, and given permission to proceed. At no time did we ever receive our confiscated food, and we had to board the flight to Washington D.C. with nothing but the luggage in our clothes, and some toiletries. Suffice to say I have no respect for TSA or any institution thereof. Simply making a mirage of 'security' in an airport doesn't stop attacks in the airports or their aircraft above. Proper security measures, and intelligence does.
7 billion dollar of tax money wasted on making people uncomfortable and stealing their property. I prefer having no airplane security that costs nothing than having airport security that works 5% of the time that costs 7 fucking billion dollar
That's so bs, I'm sorry. I'm surprised they let the couple go with that many bottles of alcohol. I forgot a Snapple in my backpack and they found it, making me either have to drink it or throw it away.
+zaczane I must agree that you are not a priest, for it is a sin THAT they are orange. Green is the best kind. Orange is worst! (at least out of the three I've tasted: white, orange, and green)
I remember one time before 9-11, my parents were taking me to the gate so I could fly back to school. All of a sudden, my dad goes deathly pale. It turns out he'd gone right through security with his survival knife in his boot. A large 8 inch blade, and it didn't set off a single detector. Fast forward a few years later, and my mom got put on a watch list because she had a kubotan (a 4 inch plastic stick) as a keychain.
I snuck a gun on a plane by accident put it in the wrong bag.. I meant to put it in my bag for the hold. The gun was a gas BB gun but there's no way of telling the difference unless you open it. Which they didn't.
The whole “negligent searching” thing is so true sometimes. I remember making it all the way from Massachusetts to Alabama and back with THREE WHOLE BOTTLES OF WATER I forgot were in the bottom of my bag. Due to some flight changes, I was in a three different airports throughout the journey, and not ONE ever caught them (surprising since that’s the one “threat” they ALWAYS seem to confiscate)
Once had them completely miss a pretty large folding pocket knife that was in my backpack a few years ago when flying from Philadelphia to Las Vegas, only realize that it was in there after I got to the hotel and went to take my laptop charger out yet they hassled my brother over a necklace he was wearing that was literally just a piece of cheap chandelier chain and a luggage lock
My stepsister always gets picked for special screening at the airport, every time, but the one time I was picked instead of her is ironically the time they would have found something. When she was in grad school she was part of a study that tested the effects of illegal drugs on rats, and had trace amounts of some of those drugs on her hands from repeated expose. Because she always did get picked she got a letter that said there was a legal reason for those drugs to be on her hands, and of course that was the one time she went right through.
TSA doesn't actually care about your illegal drugs so continue to poison yourself with legal and illegal narcotics at your own pleasure! They simply need to confiscate all drugs because they are federal employees following federal laws against substances such as these. Did you also know that some drugs can and have been used with the same ingredients to make explosives, even the legal prescriptions!
To all the people who argue that the TSA is a deterrent, I would say those people don't do any international traveling. For instance, when I showed up in Haneda airport in Tokyo, I honestly think I got through everything & was out the door in about 10-15 minutes, max. Same goes for when I was leaving. How many terrorist attacks have you heard of in Japanese airports?? The fact is, terrorism is blown out of all proportion. It's like shark attacks. You're vastly more likely to be killed by a cow than a shark -- but sharks are much scarier. In the same way, you're *much* more likely to be killed by Frank down the street than Ahmed on an airplane. Sharks and Ahmed make for great stories which grip our imagination, even though they don't pose any real threat. This is why we cling to the fear.
+Dr. Zoidberg Add to the fact that the amount of terrorists caught by the TSA (zero) is smaller than the amount they missed. A terrorist even managed to sign up for the TSA's PreCheck program
+Pablohascake "...broad-brush measures (such as general bag-checking and even potentially using metal detectors) are arguably necessary foundations for limiting possible terrorism on the lowest branch." Meh. That's child's play junk.
+Pablohascake problem with your thesis being, that 'spur of the moment attacks' didn't happen BEFORE the TSA, and really, wouldn't happen it with the agency in place as it exists currently. in the meantime, you're sumping huge amounts of money into phake security-while real, effective methods (*methods proven to actually WORK)remain insufficiently funded or supported at the official level, funded from a government plunging deeper and deeper into debt. part of rationally balancing the budget, must include eliminating these 'security theater' exercises like TSA, and then devoting the funding to methods proven to actually work-such as SigInt, HumInt, and rational security measures such as the protected cockpit doors, training aircrew to respond in a crisis situation, and positioning of functional protective assets at likely points. (Such as inside the airframe of an airliner), as well as supporting efforts to gather effective intelligence, and most important CO-ORDINATING that intelligence. (9/11 happened in large part because agencies weren't talking to one another-many of the terrorists were on expired student visas-that's right, EXPIRED student visas.) while others certainly should have been easy enough for INS to keep track of (being not expired 'n all...) we've even after-the-fact had down-to-the-moles profiles on them in the news-from documents predating the attack. (Likewise, for the previous WTC bombing with the fertilizer bomb in the nineties). TSA is a low-income job and a low-income jobs program to swell the ranks of SEIU membership. that's all it functionally contributes to anyone, and the standards for 'officers' in the TSA are lower than those for the average state-level prison guard or mall-cop...but they're paid in excess of eighteen bucks an hour plus a power-trip and opportunities to steal luggage, personal items, personal electronics, wallets, etc. The agency serves no functional, real-world purpose other than allowing a few politicians to proclaim that they've "Done Something About The Problem" (briefly) while providing federal paycheques to people you wouldn't hire to serve lattes. at one time, in the fifties, when America was running budget surplus and the economy was growing at over ten percent, we could afford this kind of outlay-but that was the fifties, not now.
My dad is a hunter and he once forgot to take out a pretty large folding hunter's knife out of his hand carry bag before a flight. He found it there after we arrived to the destination, which means that 3 TSAs at 3 airports, two of which were the major international ones, failed to find it. Really goes to show how ineffective they are in practice...
The entire motto of most Americans is: "I want to die fat and comfortable doing and wasting everything I want." The idea that they can die from "literally anything else" makes them piss their pants. Understandable (since nobody wants a pre-mature death), but unavoidable (as life is unpredictable).
That DHS test was particularly interesting to me just because the results were so glaringly awful. They did 70 tests by sending undercover agents with bombs made in various styles through TSA checkpoints, but nothing experimental or new. It was not a very difficult test for TSA to pass if they were doing their due diligence, and yet of the 70 tests sent through their checkpoints all across the nation, 67 of them went undetected. This includes in major airports like JFK and LAX! They did these tests again in 2017 at Minneapolis-St Paul...the SAME 95 percent failure rate! And repeat tests at other airports that year had a general 70 percent rate! And that's not mentioning the over 470 new carry-on baggage screening machines they got where 99 percent have been sitting in storage! The US would be better off scaling back TSA and increasing the number of armed air marshals to have at LEAST one per flight, and sometimes 2 or 3 depending on the aircraft, flight time, etc. TSA just never has cut it and likely never will.
I'm not sure I believe these results. In fact, I don't believe them at all because I detected several test explosive devices during my time with TSA. I don't believe I as the only one who could find the devices on the X-ray.
Assuming that this statement is true, it’s likely because TSA has such a high turnover rate. At least 40% of the employees you encounter are new hires and have only there for less than 6 months. TSA is implementing new training techniques to help resolve this issue. But it’s hard to keep employees when TSA is severely underpaid.
@@LowRes_Corgi56 I also think so; they did research. Sadly, someone who calls himself 'Actual justice warrior' says much Slander about Adam. Calls him names in videos and so much more. Calls him dumb Racist. Lots of Slander there.
One time, I showed up with no less than six pocketknives in my carry-on backpack. I’d dumped them there months before when I was cleaning up the basement, then completely forgot about them, nor did I check the pouch in my rush to get to the airport. I thought I was in for a rough time, but the TSA agent didn’t even question my stammering explanation and merely had me check them.
Also, a friend once had a joint inside a small plastic container and was flagged for a bag inspection for some reason or other. The inspector went through the bag and opened the container while not really looking - he was talking to someone else - and the joint fell on the floor. My friend put his foot over it and eventually was able to kick it under something. The agent never saw. If anyone else did, they said nothing. This was back when marijuana laws were stricter, so my friend was pretty lucky.
@@ryanmcmahon7421 So they found the pocket knives? I see nothing wrong with your story. What happened to your friend is because TSA does not look for drugs and they are often careless when looking through your bag, so make sure they put everything they took out, back inside.
Yes, they found the pocket knives. I wonder if they would have let me off so easily had I been more brown-skinned/foreign-seeming, but I certainly felt relieved that they seemed to believe my story without really questioning it. I don't remember who exactly searched my friend's bag, whether TSA, a cop, or someone else. He seemed to believe that they were looking for drugs. He had the joint inside one of those little containers for holding camera film, which speaks to how long ago this was.
***** I made a large post above that points out the errors in the arguments presented by Adam, these aren't facts, they are opinions. I'll copy paste it if you like.
I'm not American, and I work in AvSec, so whilst I can't defend the TSA failing 95% of the time, I can let you know that when we get tested (all the time, my job sucks) our percentages are better... A WHOLE lot better. But good point, I never covered that one.
I'll tell you about a time when on Heathrow airport, coming home from a trip to Orlando. I bought a bubblegun in Disney Park (I was like 9-10 at the time), it got *taken away* because it looked too much like a gun, and obviously, me, not even a teenager, cried quite a bit since that bubblegun was my first bubblegun ever. *It looked too much like a fucking gun when a 5-second test could prove it shot bubbles instead of bullets.*
Logan Senkier “and obviously, I, not even a teenager” doesn’t sound better than “and obviously, me, not even a teenager” they both work, like how you can say “big” and “large” in the same scenario, though I know me and I are not direct synonyms
Doesn’t matter what you think sounds right grammar is grammar. The correct word is “I” if you say it out loud, and used proper grammar in real life, the sentence would sound normal.
Logan Senkier grammar rules change over time, I know back in the 19th century people were probably using “I” to sound posh, but if a majority of people are using something, it is basically the new rule, clinging on to rules from years ago won’t help anybody
This reminds me of a news story of a kid who was flagged and apprehended by airport security all because he wore a shirt that an image of a spider on it.
The irony is that all this is because some idiot 30 years ago hid a bomb in a bottle of contact lens solution. Hmph! They can still hide it-- in bottles of things like mother's milk.
Eileen Sweeney *10 years ago *Uncovered terrorist plot to mix explosive liquids hidden in soft drinks *People had to demonstrate themselves drinking the milk to prove it actually was milk
One of my friends accidentally left a screwdriver in their backpack and brought it to London, TSA never found it, but the London Gatwick TSA found it almost immediately.
@@katarzynazabinska6487But the 3 inch scissors of a 7 year old child do need to be confiscated... These rules genuinely are just made to troll us, I don't see any other way.
TSA pulled me over because my converse had little metal rings on the laces that got caught up in the metal scanner even when they said it would be okay. I waited 15 minutes for someone to "pat my shoe down." I offered to take it off, and show them there was nothing in the shoe- they declined, and after 15 minutes, someone came up to my shoe with a glove on, tapped my shoe ONCE and said it was okay- then walked off. note, I had a metal headband on that I forgot to take off, and as soon as I said "oh, my headband is metal" they didn't bother to question that.......... yep. security.
Hetalia i had something similar happen. Wore flats with a metal buckle, and they were like “it’s fine” and then they gave me a dirty look when i set the thing* off >.>
I get the pat down almost every time I fly! I think it's because the metal wires in my bras. The machine that you stand in always highlights that area then they pat me down around there.
If you were shot by a gun that shot tic tacs in real life they would probably go inside of you. Bullets get propelled so quickly that no matter what their shape they'll penetrate.
Ocean God A gun that shot tic tacs is what I said, not a gun loaded with them. But in the video they said that they loaded the insurgent's gun with tic tacs, so I guess in the end, what I said was pointless.
Regardless of what happened to them, it would still fuckin hurt. Either A: A tictac smashes into you at high speed. B: It shrapnels into you at high speed. or C: You get sugar and powder burns.
The TSA is a joke, I had a deck of sharp metal throwing cards that were basically throwing stars but shaped like cards but thinner. Dude I had a whole deck, all 52 of them. I was playing around with them before going on the plane and no one said anything. Of course if I started throwing like Gambit on the plane the air marshals and others would have taken me down.
+jensennguyen02 Well if the cards are marked you can play any solitary card game with the knowledge that if attacked your cards also double as a weapon. I wouldn't use a deck like that for poker, or war... as your opponent might be a sore loser.
In the Atlanta airport a few years ago, some one accidentally brought a gun with them. They made it through security, and when they realized their mistake, they tried to turn themselves in, but were immediately arrested.
yea this happens in New York all the time , several people call Tsa in advance and ask... they are clear and told it's okay , but when they are checked they are arrested even if it meets the TSA'S guidelines for traveling with firearms... lesson here if you love traveling with your Handgun avoid New York...

Funny thing. When me and a few friends went to Costa Maya on a cruise trip, my friend bought a alcohol pouring class made to look like a revolver gun (“shot” glass, get it) and they confiscated it because it ‘looked’ like a weapon. Meanwhile, I bought a Mayan obsidian knife, I was willing to give it up, but they just let me keep it. They didn’t even try to confiscate it. So they’re willing to confiscate stuff that look like weapons, but not the actual potential murder weapon. Logic?
The agent knows their Tic-Tacs! Orange is the WAY, I HAVE SPOKEN! Tic Tac were first introduced by Ferrero (yes, the same ones behind Ferrero Rocher) in 1969, under the name "Refreshing Mints". In 1970, the name was changed to Tic Tac, after the distinctive clicking sound made by the pack being opened and closed. I love this show, it can help you get into the proper research by showing the highlights. They do sometimes put a bit of tv exaggeration (not to the point of actually ruining the facts), but even if they do, they show you the sources of their statements, and even put links on their websites and interviews with their experts. Seriously, look into the research! It’s great!
My mum gets a security check every time no matter what and she's white like me so it's not racism. It was once so bad that I remember when I was little I shat my pants at the airport and forgot to pack underwear and we where hurrying to get through security when a another RANDOM security check happend even though mum was pleading because her little daughter had just pooped her pants and we desperately needed to get to a toilet to clean up.
Beyond Names when i was i eight i got constipated alot and my mum gave me an enema earlier that morning but not all of the shit had gotten out that morning and i shat my pants. (enema is what helps you poo; it turns it into mush)
I loved how the TSA confiscated my nail clippers when I was at a check point and the 20oz bottle of soda I had there.... once I got past the TSA checkpoint, what did they have for sale there? 20oz bottles of soda and bigger nail clippers than the ones I had in my purse. Great security.
Got stopped at airport security for bringing a can of deodorant in my bag. "Sorry sir, you can't bring any fluids on-board" Except, the guy didn't spot my tube of toothpaste in the same bag. Idiot...
Personally, I'd rather ban Axe body spray from planes too, but compressed gas and pastes aren't liquids. Or do they raise a stink about someone having too much blood plasma a the TSA now?
I used to carry a cardboard cutter, a paid of sissors and a screwdriver i my backpack for school. Turns out that,as it is the same bag I carry my laptop in for travel I carried that stuff for OVER A YEAR through at least 6 or 8 flights before realizing it (and yes, I realized it when they took it from me at the TSA, until then I hadn't made the connection)
They took away my $100 artistic bottle opener I got at an art auction. Then when I asked why they took it away the guy said literally "Oh we just thought it looked expensive." They gave it back after I said I would call a lawyer for admitting to take an item just because it looked expensive.
+Evildeathmonkey they knew if they lied I would of called my lawyer. The bottle opener is a piece of art. You can't take art and call it a weapon or illegal. Plus the guy I talked to was the lead guy at the time. I still called my lawyer and he contacted the head of the O'Hare TSA Division. It's likely those who decided to steal and try to keep my item were fired.
Someone I know went through TSA and he tried bringing an 8 oz can of shaving cream which wasn't allowed. But they decided to investigate further and brought him into another room because they suspected he had a "pipe bomb." It was his magnetic phone charger sticking to the can of shaving cream...
Funny story: When I was deploying to Afghanistan, the TSA wouldn't let my buddy on with a pair of nail clippers. It was considered a weapon. When my buddy held out his M-4 rifle and said, "No, THIS is a weapon", the TSA agent looked at him clueless.
My 'favorite' moment with customs was when I came back from Germany with a giant plush tiger that I won at a fair. It was too big for my luggage so I took it as carry-on instead. After being stuck in a plane for 10+ hours and waiting another hour or so in the customs line, I got escorted into a separate room where the plushy was swabbed to make sure there where no trace combustible or explosive chemicals to be found. Keep in mind this was AFTER the flight. If I had a bomb in that thing, don't you think I would've set it off at some point in that 10 hour flight? Plus I was starting to get sick at the time so I was feeling even more miserable. A fun day for everyone involved. I also got treated like a little kid during the entire thing even though I was 22 at the time. Sorry that the giant stuffed animal made for a better pillow than what the airlines provide.
they checked for controban that u may be ebtering into the country or some cbemicals can be used as a terrosit attack in the country. what they did was justified.
+Staynifty The TSA is pretty useless, but they made it worse by trying to form a workers union, that brought on organized PR smearing of them by powerful companies. I'm not really sure if it was a good thing or not.
Solid Snake Well the major companies would try to smash anyone forming a union: Unions fight for the rights of the workers and better working conditions, pay, etc, but the TSA shouldn't even exist. like the video said, it's all a show to make cowards who are afraid to take a fuckin' chance in their lives feel nice and warm inside. So in this case, it's great.
I always buy the biggest / Cheapest tube of tooth paste I can find before a trip. I place it inside my carry on luggage. It’s the first thing they see when they open my bag. The TSA always takes it and then lets me pass. I consider it an offering to the TSA gods.
The TSA once RUINED MY LIFE!!! The, uh, board game. The Game of Life. I was trying to take it with me because it wouldn't fit in my checked bag, but while passing through TSA they ripped the box apart for no reason. It was a brand new game, too...
I remember this episode of Sam and Cat where they were going through airport security because they were accompanying kids with the last name Bomb. And then Goomer comes running over with timers for the kids' medicine screaming "I GOT THE TIMERS FOR THE BOMBS!" It cracked me up.
Once, the TSA searched my bag and took away my expensive-ass Copic markers because they were alcohol based. Those markers are like $2 each, and I had a case of 48!
What's worse, because the TSA is a government agency, it's extremely expensive and ineffective. Surprisingly, San Francisco of all places has privatized their security. In an independent head-to-head battle, the private security found twice as many contraband items as the TSA, at a fraction of the hourly cost.
lol i actually play csgo during my flights and one time i accidentally pulled my headphones out at the end of a round and all u hear is "Terrorists win"
+Little Miss Bee Yeah but thats a lot of people with jobs. Paying taxes and contributing to society. They are people though, be patient and moan if a TSA agent touches you. Make it weird.
It's actually not, with concepts like the illusion of security the desired affect is not to make us feel falsely safe, though that is part of it. The intention of this is to dissuade people from attempting this, rather than catch them at it. It's true we haven't caught any terrorist attack a since 9/11, but there have only been two attempts. Because of the presentation that our airports are impregnable terrorists are more likely to focus on targets they feel are more vulnerable and have less protection, I'm surprised they didn't talk about that in the show at all
Our family went on a trip to DC, and my mom forgot to remove her credit card razor from her purse. This thing is surprisingly gnarly, but we made it on multiple planes and inside many high security buildings including the Capitol the Supreme Court. The freakin' National Archives were the ones to find it, a week into our trip. I didn't think my faith in safety screenings could go any lower....
This kid in class watches all these videos and told my teacher about this one and his word "the TSA dosent protect us from terrorist" >instantly my teacher said "if they did....would they tell you...everytime?
Have you ever gone fishing? When you caught your first fish, did you tell anyone about it? Yea... They would too, if they caught anyone, since it is in their own interest to show themselves usefull. But so far, not a single one has been presented.
I've seen cops showing mugshots of crooks and the things they confiscated. I've seen full reports on a fire accidents. I've seen lawyers to present older cases to clients as references of how a case would look like. I wonder why there's nothing from TSA? Are they keeping a low profile on the successes? Hmmm I wonder....
@@MartialBorschel I don't know, man. Those confiscated items don't pose much threats, let alone useful for large scale terrorist attacks. The video's pertaining to the subject whether TSA is wasting taxpayers' money or not. In my country, these TSA officers confiscate drinking water yet nearby the boarding gate, there are several shops that sells drinking water just right after you've gone through the body checking. If I were to plan a terrorist attack, I wouldn't just walk to the officers and let them check me. I would at least hire several people to smuggle in some BCWs, firearms, or explosive. Of course, that's what my country's airport looks like.
That's totally fair. I'm American and Israeli and German, so I get to see the breadth of security even just traveling between different countries I have nationality with. In Israel I doubt you will be able to pull a terror attack off. They do everything Americans do, but add in profiling, observation as soon as in the airport or grounds, multiple flight personal who are also armed, not to mention half a plane who are also military trained, if retired. In America we have similar systems such as Flight Marshals (who make very few arrests - 200 mil per arrest actually). The video is correct that the TSA is for show- but it is possible to stop idiots feasibly. The real security is actually beyond the checkpoints, oddly enough.
I was going through TSA pre check, had to take my belt off and the lady inspected it. she undid the cobra buckle and gasped as she unclipped it thinking it was going to be a belt knife. Incompetence of TSA is astounding.
+Nick Herb I'm a little behind on their podcast, but the last thing I heard was that some channel wanted them to film a pilot and submit it. After that, they'll hear whether or not it's gonna be picked up. They originally tried to reach TBS, but then another channel (forgot the name) saw the amazing support their fans gave them (#greenlightjakeandamir) and decided to give them a chance.
Brendon Grindstaff if someone says bomb they could be talking about having one It’s bad if someone has a bomb irregardless if it’s one the plane or when they are getting on the plane
I traveled to the US with a laptop, Switch, pair of headphones, and a tabletop microphone all stuffed into the same tiny backpack. There's no way that mess of electronics and cables didn't look suspicious to anyone really paying attention. Nope, not a mention of it.
Keywords: you travelled TO the US. Assuming you went through security outside of the US. TSA does not provide security outside of the US. So unless you went through security at a US airport (to include US territories) then your comment is invalid and does not apply. You didn’t go through TSA
Yeah same I traveled to the US then between states 2 times and back to my country I had a Nintendo Switch, a new3DSxl and everyone’s phones and cables in the back the 3DS was even ON and nobody cared yet somehow they stopped my mom’s friend because she still had a yogurt *from the ones they give you in the plane*
So I thought I lost my keys and asked TSA if they could run my backpack through to see if they could see them anywhere. They ran it 2 times and did not see them. I opened one of the pockets and there they were.... TLDR - thought lost keys, tsa scans backpack twice - no keys, opens backpack finds keys.
Just to be clear, the Shoe Bomber, Richard Reid was on American Airlines Flight 63, Paris to Miami. And the Underwear Bomber, Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab was on Northwest Airlines Flight 253, Amsterdam to Detroit. TSA does not operate in France or the Netherlands. So, it's true TSA did not stop either of these attempted attacks. But, TSA didn't have a chance to stop them either. So, we'll never know.
I had a metal watch that I didn't take off. I went through the scanner and nothin. Seriously, i even had a ring and bracelet another time and nothing again, I hid 'em from the guard so I don't have to take 'em off and on. Damn, our safety is faulted.
+Diamond Emerald Metal jewelry is fine. You don't even need to take them off. We set the threshold above the ankle on the Metal detectors high enough so that there are not too many false alarms. You don't need to hide anything since the officer won't take it unless the Metal detector alarms.

I remember once when I was seven we were coming home from a trip to Disney and I had brought a light saber back. When we were talking about it with the TSA agent while she was looking through my moms bag (my little brother had some baby formula that triggered the detector) I made a joke about it obviously not being a real light saber, and this lady glared at me, told me to not joke about weapons and had my parents patted down because they genuinely thought that a seven-year-old who likes light sabers was a terrorist...
It wasn’t your comment that caused TSA to pat down your parents. It was the baby formula that caused your parents to get a Pat Down. Explosives are made out of plenty of different kinds of chemicals and explosives. One of which being powder like substances. HENCE the baby formula (which is a powder). The machine that tests the baby powered detects trace amounts of explosives. Not saying that you or your parents had any, it could be a number of different things. To make sure that it isn’t an explosive, your parents got a pat down (you and your brother were not old enough to receive said pat down so neither one of you were chosen).
Lmao

Fun fact - Japanese swords require a certain way of pulling, otherwise you damage the blade.
And replica swords are built dull, so you can't cut people down.
Worst you could do is bludgeon them to death.
You couldn't even bludgeon them, even a dull zweihander blade would break
@@cumguzzler8537 Even if that was true (which it isn't; zweihanders are proper flexible steel and would take a lot of force to break), one trait of the katana's construction is that it's essentially a really elegant iron bar with a sharp edge welded on the front. That's obviously not quite accurate, but it is true that, while a katana's edge is super brittle, the body of the thing is real sturdy and you could definitely use it as a bludgeon if blunt.
EDIT: As pointed out by Jona Jo, this isn't quite accurate when it comes to replicas, which apparently use modern forging techniques rather than traditional construction. That said, the overall point still stands; a long metal bar is a dangerous weapon pretty much regardless.
We know this.. Oooo want a medal?
I pray for people who don’t know replicas are dull. You’re not smart for pointing out a basic fact
Might as well confiscate fists since they can be weapons

Still, apart from a couple of terrorised stares from other passengers, nothing happened. I guess it's just Italy.

I was going on a flight to Washington D.C. during 2018 for a surgery on my esophagus (My throat closes, preventing food from going down) and I was limited to very few foods that had the ability to reach my stomach, which were Chicken and Stars soup, yogurt, cereal, and oatmeal. We stood two hours in Orlando International Airport's lines before making it to TSA screening, they had my two boxes of cereal, and six cans of soup, and a box of oatmeal confiscated, afterward my mother had to undergo a full-body search in the middle of the airport. The search lasted 10 minutes as they kept waving our luggage through the detector.
As this was happening, a couple walked up to the TSA checking station to be searched as well, the TSA official asked if there was any liquid substances inside their baggage, to which they answer no. Seconds later, the TSA official begins pulling large bottles of champagne and other liquors from their bag. They removed either 7-8 bottles from that couples luggage, and as the TSA were finishing up violating my mother's privacy, we witnessed the couple infront of us being allowed to keep their many bottles of alcohol, and given permission to proceed. At no time did we ever receive our confiscated food, and we had to board the flight to Washington D.C. with nothing but the luggage in our clothes, and some toiletries.
Suffice to say I have no respect for TSA or any institution thereof. Simply making a mirage of 'security' in an airport doesn't stop attacks in the airports or their aircraft above. Proper security measures, and intelligence does.
7 billion dollar of tax money wasted on making people uncomfortable and stealing their property. I prefer having no airplane security that costs nothing than having airport security that works 5% of the time that costs 7 fucking billion dollar
of which America will lack significantly forever.
Honestly, the tsa is so damn aggravating that I'm incredibly surprised nobody snapped hard enough to commit a crime there
That's so bs, I'm sorry. I'm surprised they let the couple go with that many bottles of alcohol. I forgot a Snapple in my backpack and they found it, making me either have to drink it or throw it away.

I remember one time before 9-11, my parents were taking me to the gate so I could fly back to school. All of a sudden, my dad goes deathly pale. It turns out he'd gone right through security with his survival knife in his boot. A large 8 inch blade, and it didn't set off a single detector. Fast forward a few years later, and my mom got put on a watch list because she had a kubotan (a 4 inch plastic stick) as a keychain.
That's fucked up
That's messed up. Like really really messed up.
I snuck a gun on a plane by accident put it in the wrong bag.. I meant to put it in my bag for the hold. The gun was a gas BB gun but there's no way of telling the difference unless you open it. Which they didn't.

My aunt brought with her a machete. Never got detected.
The whole “negligent searching” thing is so true sometimes. I remember making it all the way from Massachusetts to Alabama and back with THREE WHOLE BOTTLES OF WATER I forgot were in the bottom of my bag. Due to some flight changes, I was in a three different airports throughout the journey, and not ONE ever caught them (surprising since that’s the one “threat” they ALWAYS seem to confiscate)
wow, you snuck three whole bottles past TSA?
Lucky us you weren’t a terrorist, damn
Once had them completely miss a pretty large folding pocket knife that was in my backpack a few years ago when flying from Philadelphia to Las Vegas, only realize that it was in there after I got to the hotel and went to take my laptop charger out yet they hassled my brother over a necklace he was wearing that was literally just a piece of cheap chandelier chain and a luggage lock
My stepsister always gets picked for special screening at the airport, every time, but the one time I was picked instead of her is ironically the time they would have found something. When she was in grad school she was part of a study that tested the effects of illegal drugs on rats, and had trace amounts of some of those drugs on her hands from repeated expose. Because she always did get picked she got a letter that said there was a legal reason for those drugs to be on her hands, and of course that was the one time she went right through.
One, how has nobody, turn on this. Two, interesting story. What was she going to grad school for? ( As in what was she studying)
Yes, false Security IS a SIN.
Obviously.
It's wrong to fake these things.
They don't test for drugs
TSA doesn't actually care about your illegal drugs so continue to poison yourself with legal and illegal narcotics at your own pleasure! They simply need to confiscate all drugs because they are federal employees following federal laws against substances such as these.
Did you also know that some drugs can and have been used with the same ingredients to make explosives, even the legal prescriptions!
@@anytimetown6214 Pretty sure they do. They had me aside once and were testing my hands for illegal substances

To all the people who argue that the TSA is a deterrent, I would say those people don't do any international traveling. For instance, when I showed up in Haneda airport in Tokyo, I honestly think I got through everything & was out the door in about 10-15 minutes, max. Same goes for when I was leaving.
How many terrorist attacks have you heard of in Japanese airports??
The fact is, terrorism is blown out of all proportion. It's like shark attacks. You're vastly more likely to be killed by a cow than a shark -- but sharks are much scarier. In the same way, you're *much* more likely to be killed by Frank down the street than Ahmed on an airplane.
Sharks and Ahmed make for great stories which grip our imagination, even though they don't pose any real threat. This is why we cling to the fear.
+Dr. Zoidberg Add to the fact that the amount of terrorists caught by the TSA (zero) is smaller than the amount they missed. A terrorist even managed to sign up for the TSA's PreCheck program
+Pablohascake
"...broad-brush measures (such as
general bag-checking and even potentially using metal detectors) are
arguably necessary foundations for limiting possible terrorism on the
lowest branch." Meh. That's child's play junk.
+Pablohascake problem with your thesis being, that 'spur of the moment attacks' didn't happen BEFORE the TSA, and really, wouldn't happen it with the agency in place as it exists currently. in the meantime, you're sumping huge amounts of money into phake security-while real, effective methods (*methods proven to actually WORK)remain insufficiently funded or supported at the official level, funded from a government plunging deeper and deeper into debt.
part of rationally balancing the budget, must include eliminating these 'security theater' exercises like TSA, and then devoting the funding to methods proven to actually work-such as SigInt, HumInt, and rational security measures such as the protected cockpit doors, training aircrew to respond in a crisis situation, and positioning of functional protective assets at likely points. (Such as inside the airframe of an airliner), as well as supporting efforts to gather effective intelligence, and most important CO-ORDINATING that intelligence. (9/11 happened in large part because agencies weren't talking to one another-many of the terrorists were on expired student visas-that's right, EXPIRED student visas.) while others certainly should have been easy enough for INS to keep track of (being not expired 'n all...) we've even after-the-fact had down-to-the-moles profiles on them in the news-from documents predating the attack. (Likewise, for the previous WTC bombing with the fertilizer bomb in the nineties).
TSA is a low-income job and a low-income jobs program to swell the ranks of SEIU membership. that's all it functionally contributes to anyone, and the standards for 'officers' in the TSA are lower than those for the average state-level prison guard or mall-cop...but they're paid in excess of eighteen bucks an hour plus a power-trip and opportunities to steal luggage, personal items, personal electronics, wallets, etc.
The agency serves no functional, real-world purpose other than allowing a few politicians to proclaim that they've "Done Something About The Problem" (briefly) while providing federal paycheques to people you wouldn't hire to serve lattes. at one time, in the fifties, when America was running budget surplus and the economy was growing at over ten percent, we could afford this kind of outlay-but that was the fifties, not now.
+Dr. Zoidberg 10-15 minutes of annoying questions though. but still. drug /food/plant/animal trafficking gets found out more than any "terrorists"

My dad is a hunter and he once forgot to take out a pretty large folding hunter's knife out of his hand carry bag before a flight. He found it there after we arrived to the destination, which means that 3 TSAs at 3 airports, two of which were the major international ones, failed to find it. Really goes to show how ineffective they are in practice...

That DHS test was particularly interesting to me just because the results were so glaringly awful. They did 70 tests by sending undercover agents with bombs made in various styles through TSA checkpoints, but nothing experimental or new. It was not a very difficult test for TSA to pass if they were doing their due diligence, and yet of the 70 tests sent through their checkpoints all across the nation, 67 of them went undetected. This includes in major airports like JFK and LAX! They did these tests again in 2017 at Minneapolis-St Paul...the SAME 95 percent failure rate! And repeat tests at other airports that year had a general 70 percent rate!
And that's not mentioning the over 470 new carry-on baggage screening machines they got where 99 percent have been sitting in storage! The US would be better off scaling back TSA and increasing the number of armed air marshals to have at LEAST one per flight, and sometimes 2 or 3 depending on the aircraft, flight time, etc. TSA just never has cut it and likely never will.
I'm not sure I believe these results. In fact, I don't believe them at all because I detected several test explosive devices during my time with TSA. I don't believe I as the only one who could find the devices on the X-ray.
Assuming that this statement is true, it’s likely because TSA has such a high turnover rate. At least 40% of the employees you encounter are new hires and have only there for less than 6 months.
TSA is implementing new training techniques to help resolve this issue. But it’s hard to keep employees when TSA is severely underpaid.
If you did some research then you'd know the Federal Air Marshals belong to the TSA...

One time, I showed up with no less than six pocketknives in my carry-on backpack. I’d dumped them there months before when I was cleaning up the basement, then completely forgot about them, nor did I check the pouch in my rush to get to the airport. I thought I was in for a rough time, but the TSA agent didn’t even question my stammering explanation and merely had me check them.
Also, a friend once had a joint inside a small plastic container and was flagged for a bag inspection for some reason or other. The inspector went through the bag and opened the container while not really looking - he was talking to someone else - and the joint fell on the floor. My friend put his foot over it and eventually was able to kick it under something. The agent never saw. If anyone else did, they said nothing. This was back when marijuana laws were stricter, so my friend was pretty lucky.
@@ryanmcmahon7421 So they found the pocket knives? I see nothing wrong with your story. What happened to your friend is because TSA does not look for drugs and they are often careless when looking through your bag, so make sure they put everything they took out, back inside.

"We replaced his bullets...with tic-tacs."
Savage af
If you were shot by a gun that shot tic tacs in real life they would probably go inside of you. Bullets get propelled so quickly that no matter what their shape they'll penetrate.
+4ven8 no, it wouldn't.
Bullets house their gunpowder in themselves, not in the gun.
Tic tacs would just slide out
Ocean God
A gun that shot tic tacs is what I said, not a gun loaded with them. But in the video they said that they loaded the insurgent's gun with tic tacs, so I guess in the end, what I said was pointless.
No, because the tic tac would explode on impact and flatten out. Same thing that happens with metal vs low caliber rounds.
Regardless of what happened to them, it would still fuckin hurt. Either A: A tictac smashes into you at high speed. B: It shrapnels into you at high speed. or C: You get sugar and powder burns.

The TSA is a joke, I had a deck of sharp metal throwing cards that were basically throwing stars but shaped like cards but thinner. Dude I had a whole deck, all 52 of them. I was playing around with them before going on the plane and no one said anything. Of course if I started throwing like Gambit on the plane the air marshals and others would have taken me down.
What would you even use that for anyway, a deck of sharp metal throwing cards
+jensennguyen02 Well if the cards are marked you can play any solitary card game with the knowledge that if attacked your cards also double as a weapon.
I wouldn't use a deck like that for poker, or war... as your opponent might be a sore loser.
+jensennguyen02 For throwing at targets?

some guy on the internet No, it's not???
how is it not
In the Atlanta airport a few years ago, some one accidentally brought a gun with them. They made it through security, and when they realized their mistake, they tried to turn themselves in, but were immediately arrested.
yea this happens in New York all the time , several people call Tsa in advance and ask... they are clear and told it's okay , but when they are checked they are arrested even if it meets the TSA'S guidelines for traveling with firearms... lesson here if you love traveling with your Handgun avoid New York...

Funny thing. When me and a few friends went to Costa Maya on a cruise trip, my friend bought a alcohol pouring class made to look like a revolver gun (“shot” glass, get it) and they confiscated it because it ‘looked’ like a weapon. Meanwhile, I bought a Mayan obsidian knife, I was willing to give it up, but they just let me keep it. They didn’t even try to confiscate it. So they’re willing to confiscate stuff that look like weapons, but not the actual potential murder weapon. Logic?

Probably find
Were you on the Norwegian Getaway around Christmas time? because if you were I was there too lol
did they realize you had an obsidian knife? I don't believe their detectors would find it as it isn't metal.
Obsidian is actually pretty weak its basically glass maybe thats why they didn't confiscate it
Jaden Ramlogan no, I was on carnival cruise during late July.
The agent knows their Tic-Tacs! Orange is the WAY, I HAVE SPOKEN! Tic Tac were first introduced by Ferrero (yes, the same ones behind Ferrero Rocher) in 1969, under the name "Refreshing Mints". In 1970, the name was changed to Tic Tac, after the distinctive clicking sound made by the pack being opened and closed. I love this show, it can help you get into the proper research by showing the highlights. They do sometimes put a bit of tv exaggeration (not to the point of actually ruining the facts), but even if they do, they show you the sources of their statements, and even put links on their websites and interviews with their experts. Seriously, look into the research! It’s great!
My dad's middle eastern and he gets the "RANDOM" security check, every. Single. Time.
most racists love using that phrase.
My mum gets a security check every time no matter what and she's white like me so it's not racism. It was once so bad that I remember when I was little I shat my pants at the airport and forgot to pack underwear and we where hurrying to get through security when a another RANDOM security check happend even though mum was pleading because her little daughter had just pooped her pants and we desperately needed to get to a toilet to clean up.
+Isla_da_smila "it doesn't happen to me so it's not racism" great argument

Well bottled drinks they dont know if it contains anything else but the nail clippers thing is dumb I've gotten nail clippers through just fine before
Lauren Glenn wow
They’ll take away a 20z bottle of soda 100% of the time you can’t bring liquids through

Except, the guy didn't spot my tube of toothpaste in the same bag.

I think the limit is set to 100ml
Personally, I'd rather ban Axe body spray from planes too, but compressed gas and pastes aren't liquids. Or do they raise a stink about someone having too much blood plasma a the TSA now?
I used to carry a cardboard cutter, a paid of sissors and a screwdriver i my backpack for school. Turns out that,as it is the same bag I carry my laptop in for travel I carried that stuff for OVER A YEAR through at least 6 or 8 flights before realizing it (and yes, I realized it when they took it from me at the TSA, until then I hadn't made the connection)
yeah me too like wtf man its brand new and its axe blue.
I got stopped twice at security for bringing twilight. Apparently the book was too big.
I thought Adam was being sarcastic when he said that the TSA posted the things they found on Instagram

+Mr. Perfect yeah, it's TSA
They took away my $100 artistic bottle opener I got at an art auction. Then when I asked why they took it away the guy said literally "Oh we just thought it looked expensive." They gave it back after I said I would call a lawyer for admitting to take an item just because it looked expensive.
+TrophyHunter99 They're literally too dumb to lie? Wouw..
+Evildeathmonkey they knew if they lied I would of called my lawyer. The bottle opener is a piece of art. You can't take art and call it a weapon or illegal. Plus the guy I talked to was the lead guy at the time. I still called my lawyer and he contacted the head of the O'Hare TSA Division. It's likely those who decided to steal and try to keep my item were fired.

A TSA agent once confiscated the bag of dry food my aunt had for her service dog. Yes, a bag of dry dog food.
My 'favorite' moment with customs was when I came back from Germany with a giant plush tiger that I won at a fair. It was too big for my luggage so I took it as carry-on instead. After being stuck in a plane for 10+ hours and waiting another hour or so in the customs line, I got escorted into a separate room where the plushy was swabbed to make sure there where no trace combustible or explosive chemicals to be found. Keep in mind this was AFTER the flight. If I had a bomb in that thing, don't you think I would've set it off at some point in that 10 hour flight? Plus I was starting to get sick at the time so I was feeling even more miserable. A fun day for everyone involved. I also got treated like a little kid during the entire thing even though I was 22 at the time. Sorry that the giant stuffed animal made for a better pillow than what the airlines provide.
Congrats, the giant ones are pretty hard to get :

Solid Snake Well the major companies would try to smash anyone forming a union: Unions fight for the rights of the workers and better working conditions, pay, etc, but the TSA shouldn't even exist.

Oh man... that’s awful!
Mary Sarukhanyan nah they just wanted it.
Oh heck no! I wouldn’t be handing over my Prismacolor markers even if it meant I missed my flight.
What's worse, because the TSA is a government agency, it's extremely expensive and ineffective. Surprisingly, San Francisco of all places has privatized their security. In an independent head-to-head battle, the private security found twice as many contraband items as the TSA, at a fraction of the hourly cost.

+Arbhall McDougall just donate money, most other donations are a waste of time
It's actually not, with concepts like the illusion of security the desired affect is not to make us feel falsely safe, though that is part of it. The intention of this is to dissuade people from attempting this, rather than catch them at it. It's true we haven't caught any terrorist attack a since 9/11, but there have only been two attempts. Because of the presentation that our airports are impregnable terrorists are more likely to focus on targets they feel are more vulnerable and have less protection, I'm surprised they didn't talk about that in the show at all

I've seen cops showing mugshots of crooks and the things they confiscated. I've seen full reports on a fire accidents. I've seen lawyers to present older cases to clients as references of how a case would look like. I wonder why there's nothing from TSA? Are they keeping a low profile on the successes? Hmmm I wonder....
TSA post what the confiscate frequently to Instagram. We would know.
@@MartialBorschel
I don't know, man. Those confiscated items don't pose much threats, let alone useful for large scale terrorist attacks. The video's pertaining to the subject whether TSA is wasting taxpayers' money or not. In my country, these TSA officers confiscate drinking water yet nearby the boarding gate, there are several shops that sells drinking water just right after you've gone through the body checking. If I were to plan a terrorist attack, I wouldn't just walk to the officers and let them check me. I would at least hire several people to smuggle in some BCWs, firearms, or explosive. Of course, that's what my country's airport looks like.
That's totally fair. I'm American and Israeli and German, so I get to see the breadth of security even just traveling between different countries I have nationality with.
In Israel I doubt you will be able to pull a terror attack off. They do everything Americans do, but add in profiling, observation as soon as in the airport or grounds, multiple flight personal who are also armed, not to mention half a plane who are also military trained, if retired.
In America we have similar systems such as Flight Marshals (who make very few arrests - 200 mil per arrest actually). The video is correct that the TSA is for show- but it is possible to stop idiots feasibly.
The real security is actually beyond the checkpoints, oddly enough.
I was going through TSA pre check, had to take my belt off and the lady inspected it. she undid the cobra buckle and gasped as she unclipped it thinking it was going to be a belt knife. Incompetence of TSA is astounding.
